Are you ready for a change of season? Sweet summer days are coming to a close, giving way to cool, crisp fall days. To get your hair ready for the drier air, brisk winds, and increased hairdryer usage, it’s essential to implement hair prep with high-performing but easy-to-use products. Here are a few hair repair tips for keeping your tresses in great shape as we transition into fall.
Deep Condition on the Regular
While frequent shampooing helps rid your hair of impurities, over-washing your hair can also strip your strands of its natural oils, leaving it brittle and dry. Cooler weather can worsen these effects. Particularly as we transition into fall, deep conditioning should be an essential part of your hair care regimen. This will help provide intense moisture, protect, and strengthen your hair, which is especially important for over-processed hair, dry hair, or hair extensions.
Look for a deep conditioner or hair masque with moisturizing shea butter as a healthy hair ingredient. After shampooing, apply a hair masque that you can leave on for 10 minutes or more before thoroughly rinsing. It adds a little extra time to your routine, but it’s worth it. You may follow with a leave-in detangler on towel-dried hair, and your favorite styling and finishing products, such as a volumizing spray.
Seal in Moisture for Stellar Results
Cold winds can batter your hair and dry it out. As mentioned, your hair needs regular deep conditioning, but it also needs to stay hydrated. The next step is to seal in moisture. Use a few drops of a high-quality argan oil on damp hair. This will help seal and repair the hair cuticle, create soft, weightless shine, and the best products will also provide UV and thermal protection.
Argan oil can also be used on dry hair for taming frizz and flyaways. Many use argan oil on their cuticles and nails as an extra bonus. After applying, style your hair as usual. On dry hair, try a dry finishing spray that works like a hair texturizer and creates weightless volume.
Choose Protective Styling Products
You can shield your hair from the elements by wearing it up and out of the wind, snow, and other harsh weather conditions. But you should also use hair products that help protect your hair, especially when you don’t feel like hiding it under a winter hat every day. Sunflower seed (Helianthus annuus) extract, for example, acts as a UV and thermal protector, plus helps protect hair from environmental damage. It’s a great ingredient to look for in everything from a high-quality conditioner to a hair texturizer.
If summer rays left your hair damaged with split or brittle ends, be sure to get a trim. Now is the perfect time of year to do it and it’s one of the best protective measures you can take. Or, how about a cute new fall hairstyle to match your salon-quality products?
