Winter is coming and it’s time to protect your hair from cold and dry air. We show you how to get hassle-free winter hair.
Our hair has to go through a lot in winter: wind, rain, maybe even snow and, of course, dry heating air demand a lot from our hair. Moisture makes winter hair frizzy, and cold causes split ends, so it’s no surprise that your mane is a bit of a disaster towards Christmas. So what you need is some extra care to get you through this time of year. Here we introduce you to various tips on how to get your strands tamed.
Daily care for winter hair
As soon as it gets colder, adjust your hair care routine accordingly. This means that you should take another close look at your shampoo and conditioner: Are the products also suitable for the winter months and dry hair?
Since winter hair is drier, it is best to use products that specifically address this problem. Weleda’s oat build-up conditioner, for example, combines coconut oil, jojoba, marshmallow and oats. It gives the hair elasticity, resilience and shine. The hair surface is noticeably smoothed and the combability of the hair is significantly improved.
Also, you need to make sure that the shampoo you are using is not too harsh on your hair and will draw moisture out of it. The “Hydrating Shampoo” from Moroccanoil works against free radicals and gives you silky, shiny winter hair – even in extremely cold weather.
Intensive hair oils for winter hair
You should also consider buying a hair oil. There are a number of effective products. The “Ultimate Oil” from KeraStraight contains a mixture of nine oils and focuses on nourishing, repairing, and nourishing your hair and giving it moisture and a healthy shine.

Weekly care for beautiful winter hair

Make your own hair treatment for winter hair
If you want to be a little more careful with your money, you can also make your own hair treatment. One of the simplest masks for beautiful winter hair you mix from olive oil and honey, which you probably already have both in the house anyway. Mix four tablespoons of honey with six tablespoons of olive oil and apply the mixture to your strands. Then, leave your treatment on for between 15 and 30 minutes. It’s best to cover your head with a plastic bag or plastic wrap and then wash it out carefully in the shower.
Natural oils for beautiful winter hair
If you have a natural body oil at home, you can also use it to pamper your hair in winter. Suitable oils for this purpose include jojoba oil, almond oil or avocado oil. Rub a few drops of the oil between your palms, apply it to the lengths of your hair and leave it on for about 30 minutes before washing it out again. For an especially intense moisture kick, you can also leave the oil on overnight.
