As the weather starts to cool down we trade out our summer dresses for cozy knits, scarves, and boots. But how often do we think about changing up our haircare for the fall? When the temperature drops your hair becomes prone to breakage and may start to lack moisture due to the cool, dry weather. That's why fall is the perfect time to start prepping your hair for the colder months. Not sure where to start? I've got you covered with two essential hair care products that will protect, hydrate, and keep your hair healthy all season long!
Deep Conditioning Treatment Cold weather and dry climates can really wreak havoc on the health of your hair. That's why it's important to keep your strands hydrated with a high quality deep conditioning treatment once a week or biweekly. My favorite deep conditioning treatment is Overtone's The Remedy. The Remedy is a hair mask that delivers intense hydration and is filled with nourishing ingredients. This treatment is 100% vegan, free of ammonias, parabens, and sulfates. Each time you use this hair mask you will notice visibly shinier, bouncy, and frizz-free hair. It's a great option for color treated hair, curly tresses, and anyone looking to add some life back into their hair! Overtone even offers a version of The Remedy hair mask for people with fine hair so that you don't have to worry about the treatment weighing down your hair.
Heat Styling Protectant
If you tend to use hot tools in the cooler months then a heat styling protectant is a must. And yes, you need a heat protectant even if you're just blow drying your hair. You may not realize it, but your blow dryer could be just as damaging as your curling wand! Heat protectant products create a protective layer over the cuticle of the hair which helps your strands from becoming overly exposed to the heat thus preventing further damage. It also helps your hair to retain moisture, lock in shine, and prevent frizz. Living Proof Restore Instant Protection Protective Styling Hairspray is a great choice for many different hair types because it's lightweight, silicone-free, and protects your hair up to 450F/250C. In addition, it provides UV-ray protection, static control, and helps to keep your hair silky smooth.
