Sitting by the fireplace and sipping hot chocolate while cuddling in the blanket, there is nothing like the winter season. But while we have the best time of our life, our skin and hair go through a lot of changes. The dry winter season creates havoc on our tresses and leaves them prone to damage. But fret not, by bringing some changes to your hair care routine, you can easily salvage your tresses by treating them with the right care and styling tools like Vega Personal Care Appliances.
Soft, silky beautiful hair that looks well-groomed awaits you this winter season if you spare some time to follow the basic hair care routine dedicated to the winter season. The air during the cold weather becomes dry and badly messes up our hair resulting in breakage, brittleness, and flaky buildup in the scalp. With some minor tweaks in your daily routine, you can gain control over the damaged hair and watch the magic unfold.
Top 5 Winter Haircare Tips For Soft and Silky Hair
Moisturize the Scalp with Hair Oil
During the winter season, your scalp gets dry and itchy due to a lack of moisture in the air. This may lead to dandruff, scalp irritation, and flakiness and causes hairfall. And to fix this, all you need is hot oil massage with nourishing hair oil that works wonders. To fix the dry hair roots and itchy scalp, ensure oiling your hair twice a week before hairwash as this oil penetrates the hair shaft and keeps the roots moisturized. Giving regular hair massage to the hair improves blood circulation and nourishes the hair follicles, stimulating hair growth.
Avoid Frequent Hair Washes
Frequently washing the hair strips off the natural oil from the hair causes further dryness and irritation. And to cope with this, you need to extend the duration between the hairwash and not shampooing more than twice a week. Always use an anti-dandruff shampoo to wash the hair followed by a conditioner to maintain the moisture and hydration level of the hair. For maintaining the required dose of moisture, ensure using a thick and creamy conditioner that is enriched with natural ingredients for deep hydration and nourishment. For even distribution of the conditioner, ensure using a Wide Teeth Comb.
Never Leave the Hair Wet
To prevent a flaky scalp and rough hair tips, it is important to keep the hair dry. And due to lack of moisture in the air, hair takes longer than usual to get dried which makes the strands rough and frizzy. To avoid such a situation, we recommend using a Hair Dryer for the gentle drying of hair. You can switch to using a Vega U-Style 1600 Hair Dryer using the cool shot button for minimum heat exposure followed by styling hair with a blow dry. Allow your hair to dry partially before using a dryer and seal the hair with a heat protectant first before using a dryer. Use a wide teeth comb to detangle the hair knots and then set the dryer to low heat settings and then start drying the hair from the roots.
Use Heat on Hair Judiciously
It sounds tempting to style the hair using heat styling tools as they give a shiny and smooth finish to dull & frizzy hair, especially during the winter season. Since the winter season is all about frizzy and dull hair, it is also important to make sure the heat settings of the styling tool are set right. And to protect the hair shaft from the damage of the heat, splurge on hair styling tools that come with multiple heat settings which will help you to set the temperature according to your hair volume and styling needs. If you love straightening your hair, switch up to using Hair Straightener Machine that come with ceramic-coated heat plates that offer even heat distribution and glide smoothly.
Schedule a Weekly Hair Mask
A deep conditioning hair mask is no less than a therapy that restores the hair’s good health and gives luscious and healthy-looking strands. Applying a hair mask right before the hair wash penetrates deeper into the roots, cleans the scalp, and makes the hair soft and smooth. It further repairs the damaged hair roots and moisturizes the hair for fixing the frizzy and brittle hair strands. It also promotes hair strengthening by combating hair breakage and leaves behind strong and smooth hair strands.
When the temperature drops and cold weather steps by, our hair needs equal attention just like our skin! And to help people get through winter hair woes, following a hair care routine is going to be a blessing in disguise. Follow this guide and take better care of your hair upcoming winter weather.
