Winter is upon us, bringing cold air that can really take a toll on your beautiful natural hair. As temperatures drop and indoor heating kicks in, many of us with curly hair struggle with dryness, brittleness, and frizz. Thankfully, there’s a great way to keep your hair healthy and vibrant all season long: the Steam and Trim Add-on service and our curly hair products! Let's dive into how winter affects hair health and how the right care can make all the difference.
The Winter Dryness Dilemma
When winter arrives, the cold air lacks humidity, which steals moisture from your hair. Studies show that indoor humidity can drop to as low as 10% during winter, compared to 30-50% in milder weather. This dryness makes hair brittle, leading to breakage and split ends.
To combat this impact, keep your hair moisturized. Opt for natural hair care products that match your hair type. Ingredients like shea butter, coconut oil, and aloe vera are fantastic for nourishing hair. For instance, using a deep conditioning treatment; like our "Deep"
which is packed with shea butter once a week can provide hydration that lasts, preventing that dreaded winter dryness. Our curly hair products are great for those whose hair suffer throughout the winter.
Indoor Heating: A Hidden Culprit
Indoor heating is another factor that harms hair in winter. It can sap moisture, leaving your scalp dry and your strands prone to frizz. The temperature shift from cold to warm environments can stress your hair. According to experts, this stress can lead to a loss of up to 20% of hair moisture.
A smart way to restore moisture is to incorporate steam treatments into your hair care routine. Our Steam and Trim boosts hydration, restoring balance and elasticity to your hair. This treatment opens your hair cuticles, allowing moisture to penetrate deeply, exactly what your hair needs to thrive during winter!
The Importance of Regular Trims & Curly hair products
A key aspect often overlooked in winter hair care is regular trims. The cold weather worsens split ends, especially when combined with decreased moisture levels. Regular trimming helps get rid of damaged ends and encourages healthy growth, reducing breakage.
Wondering when to trim? Winter is an excellent time for a refresh! Our curly hair products along with the Steam and Trim not only provides a fresh cut but also revitalizes your hair with steam, giving you the moisture boost and trim combination your hair craves during this season.
Embrace Protective Styles
Protective styles can be your best allies in winter! They shield your hair from harsh conditions and require less manipulation. Styles like braids, twists, and updos help tuck away your ends, keeping them safe from wind and cold.
While styling, use natural products to keep your hair hydrated. Ensure that your protective styles are not too tight to release tension on your hairline. (We wrote a Blog on Traction Alopecia). Remember, a healthy scalp equals healthy hair! Deep conditioning every two weeks can also help maintain moisture levels, making protective styles more beneficial.
Hydration from Within
While applying products externally is important, hydration from within the body is just as vital! Drinking plenty of water during winter is crucial for overall health and hair condition. Dehydration can lead to dry, brittle hair that is prone to damage. Statistics suggest that even a 2% decrease in hydration can affect hair's appearance.
Additionally, nourishing your body with foods rich in omega fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants will help improve your hair health. Including avocados, nuts, and leafy greens in your meals can work wonders. For example, a serving of almonds provides half of your daily Vitamin E needs, promoting a healthy scalp and shiny hair.
