New Year’s Tips for Winter Hair Care
Written by Mary Rosato
Winter season is officially upon us – the holidays are over and now it’s time to work on those resolutions we made to start the new year.
While some promise to eat healthier and others vow to exercise more, here’s one promise to yourself that you should definitely keep – taking care of your hair through the winter weather.
It’s no secret – our hair sure takes a beating during the harsh, cold temperatures that the winter tends to bring. One common struggle is static and frizz.
To keep your hair static-free, one way is to avoid washing your hair every day. If your hair is starting to feel less-than-fresh, try using a dry shampoo. Some great dry shampoo brands to guarantee a fresh, clean feeling are Aquage and Moroccanoil.
Other ways to avoid static and frizz are to use lukewarm water when washing your hair as opposed to hot water. Remember to thoroughly wash all shampoo off of your scalp and out of your hair – otherwise your scalp may be left feeling dry and flakey.
As for blow drying, try to use a medium to cool setting. Vented hair brushes with plastic and boar bristles are also essential to avoid any static.
Another common struggle for hair during winter weather is dryness. Your hair is robbed of its moisture during winter months.

Using a deep conditioning treatment at least once a week will help restore any moisture to your hair, along with leaving it feeling silky and smooth. Morocanoil deep conditioner or Joico Lusterlock are two great brands to help your hair regain its moisture.
While these tips are surefire ways to keep your hair healthy through the winter, the best way to maintain your hair’s health is with frequent trims. This is a crucial part of keeping your hair healthy because it will rid your hair of dead ends.
It is also important to – believe it or not – watch your diet to keep your hair healthy. Foods that are rich in natural oils, minerals, and vitamins can help boost and maintain your hair’s shine.
While winter is already upon us, it is certainly not too late to begin following these tips. We still have more winter months ahead, so show your hair the love it deserves.
