1. Nourishing Shampoo

Kerastase Nutritive Bain Satin Riche Shampoo

During winter your hair tends to get drier and duller, and this is due to the natural moisture of your hair being stripped by harsh weather. So, it’s important to choose a shampoo that cleanses well, but doesn’t feel like you’ve stripped your hair of all of its natural oils!

The Kerastase Nutritive Bain Satin Riche Shampoo is formulated with gentle proteins that cleanses the hair, restoring its thickness and shine while also improving moisture retention. It helps revitalise and strengthen hair to fight against dehydration. Say bye-bye to dull hair! 

Top tip: ensure your hair is fully wet before applying it, then emulsify for a rich lather that cleanses oh-so-well. Rinse and continue on with your routine!

2. Nip Damage in the Bud

Wella Fusion Mask

Cold weather can make already damaged hair even more vulnerable to breakage during winter! If your hair is bleached, coloured or you find yourself heat-styling often, winter is the perfect time to get some repair done.

The Wella Fusion Mask is a luxurious creamy mask formulated with intense conditioning ingredients and amino acids. A fusion of silk amino acids and micronized lipids instantly work to recover hair fibres at micro and macro levels. Even the most damaged hair feels renewed, smooth and resilient against breakage. Use it once a week after shampooing, leave on for 5 minutes, and voila, your hair’s in top-shape. 

3. Don’t Forget Your Scalp

Oribe Serene Scalp Soothing Leave-On Treatment

Healthy hair = healthy scalp, I don’t make the rules!

As temperatures drop, many people notice their scalp becoming drier, itchier and producing flakes for days! Giving your scalp some TLC can help keep it calm and comfortable during the winter months. A healthy scalp creates the perfect environment for healthier and stronger hair that lasts beyond winter!

The Oribe Serene Scalp Soothing Leave-On Treatment is a lightweight and fast-absorbing leave-on serum for your scalp. Who says serums are just for your face?! This leave-on treatment instantly provides relief and rebalances and hydrates your scalp while helping relieve dryness and itchiness. Using this treatment could not be easier; after washing, simply part your hair in sections and apply a few drops directly onto your scalp. Give yourself a wee scalp massage (cos why not?) to distribute the treatment evenly and say hey to a happier scalp! 

4. Say Nay to Frizz

Amika Frizz-Me-Not-Hydrating Anti-Frizz Treatment

If your hair is anything like mine, it somehow has a mind of its own when it comes to frizz. Dry air and friction from wearing beanies, scarves or thick wooly jackets can leave your hair looking frizzy, have insane flyaways that you can’t seem to manage, and are more prone to static. 

The Amika Frizz-Me-Not Hydrating Anti-Frizz Treatment is designed for ladies with hair that is prone to frizz. It is activated by heat, so you don’t have to say bye to using heat styling (YAY!), and creates a protective shield that locks in hydration, enhances shine and controls frizz for up to 3 days. The milky texture evenly coats hair without residue, leaving your hair feeling soft, manageable and smooth. Win, win and win! All you have to do is spray the product onto clean and damp hair, comb it through to evenly distribute, then style with heat as usual. 

5. Winter Shedding

Kerastase Genesis Anti Hair-Fall Fortifying Serum

Picture this, you brush your hair as normal, then you look at your brush then JUMP SCARE, there’s hair for daysss on there! Seasonal changes, styling habits and change in environment all contribute to increased shedding and weaker-looking and feeling strands. But fret not, we’ve got you covered!

The Kerastase Genesis Anti-Fall Fortifying Serum is a cult-classic for a good reason. It’s a lightweight daily-use serum that is enriched with a potent combination of Aminexil, Edelweiss Native Cells and Ginger Root, which all work to improve hair resistance to minimise hair fall and maximise beautiful hair. It helps re-anchor your hair follicle more solidly into the scalp while building the best environment for future growth. Umm yes please! 

You can use this beautiful serum once daily in the morning or before going to bed during a 6 week period. Apply 4 doses on dry or towel-dried scalp, section by section. Massage gently and do not rinse. 

Incorporating a scalp serum to your winter haircare routine is a great way to support your scalp health and give it that extra oomph during the cooler months.
