Fall and winter bring changes in nature, fashion, and even hair maintenance! For instance, going outside with damp hair can cause you to become ill. Also, the cold, dry weather can extract moisture from your hair, making it brittle and prone to breakage. But wearing protective hairstyles prevents the weather from having such harsh effects on your delicate hair.
The main purpose of protective styling is to preserve your hair’s health and length. Protective styles such as braids and twists, wigs and weaves, and head scarves and hats require minimal manipulation to your own hair and allow the strands to be covered from the cold. However, moisturizing your hair and allowing it to breathe are still vital.
Tip: To avoid stressing your strands and scalp irritation associated with repetitive styling, try rotating regularly between different protective styles.
Here’s some way’s to keep your hair healthy !
A deep conditioner
At least once a week, do some thorough damage repair with a deep conditioner such as Shu Uemura Art of Hair Moisture Velvet Nourishing Treatment. The ingredients leave behind a smoothing film that hides dryness and damage for days.
A less-damaging hair color
Ammonia and peroxide don’t just smell—they strip your hair of moisture. L’Oréal Professionnel’s new salon dye, INOA, uses neither. A new ingredient gives a dramatic color change without the usual acrid odor or sting, and is more resistant to fading.
A heat-protecting spray
Since flatirons can hit a scorching 410 degrees, it’s important to make sure your hair doesn’t feel the burn. A spritz of Tresemmé Thermal Creations Heat Tamer Spray protects hair with a layer of silicone.
A silicone-emitting flatiron
Flatiron heat can crack hair’s cuticle. But the Remington Style Therapy Frizz Therapy flatiron plates have a porous ceramic coating that emit a silicone-based conditioner that has been shown to eliminate frizz more effectively than a traditional ceramic iron.
A split-end camouflage cream
Though the only way to get rid of split ends permanently is to trim them, White Sands The Cure 24/7 Hair Cell Renewal can hold the frayed strands together all day. And the effects are not solely cosmetic—it may also help prevent future breakage by lubricating wet hair before brushing, and preserving the cuticle.
