The Damaging Effects Of Sub-Zero Temperatures On Your Hair: How To Prevent & Recover

Winter is upon us, and while the snow-covered landscapes may look like a winter wonderland, your hair might be singing a different tune. Subzero temperatures can wreak havoc on your strands, leaving them dry, brittle, and desperately in need of some TLC. But don't fret because we've got the lowdown on preventing and recovering from the damaging effects of extreme cold – all while introducing you to our fav products to combat the winter blues on your hair. 


The Cold, Hard Truth 

Winter weather can be downright brutal on your hair. As the temperature drops, so does the humidity, leading to a lack of moisture in the air. Combine that with indoor heating, and you've got a recipe for disaster. Dry air sucks the moisture right out of your strands, leaving them parched and prone to breakage. The result? Static, frizz, and an overall lackluster appearance.


Prevention is the Best Medicine

Just like bundling up in layers is essential for surviving the cold, your hair needs extra love and care during the winter. Here's how to keep your mane in tip-top shape:

  1. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate

Your hair needs hydration just as much as your skin. Invest in a high-quality moisturizing shampoo and conditioner, like the Replenishing Shampoo and Conditioner, to give your locks the love they deserve.

  1. Avoid Hot Tools

We get it – the temptation to crank up the heat on your styling tools is real. But during winter, it's best to give your hair a break. Opt for heatless styles or use lower temperatures to prevent further damage.

  1. Deep Conditioning

Treat your hair to a weekly deep conditioning treatment. The Revitalizing Masque is a game-changer, infusing your strands with moisture and leaving them softer and nourished.
