Cold Weather Hair Care For a Soft, Manageable Mane

Winter weather has shown up a little early across much of the country this year. As a result, many are already struggling with the effects of the dry cold temperatures outside and the humidity zapping heat systems indoors. If your hair is protesting the drop in temperatures by frizzing up, drying out, and not doing what you want it to, stick around because we have some hair care tips to help you have a soft, manageable mane throughout fall and winter no matter what the weather throws your way.

Hydrate Inside and Out

Keeping your hair hydrated and moisturized is the key to happy, healthy hair. To keep up hydration from the inside out make sure you’re taking in the recommended 2 liters of water every single day. Give your hair a boost of moisture every time you wash by changing your hair care products to deeply moisturizing formulas like Eufora Beautifying Elixirs product line Moisture Intense Shampoo and Conditioner.

Keep Your Hair Under Wraps

When you bundle up to head outside, don’t forget to protect your hair. A hat isn’t the only solution to protect your strands from the chill. Pretty scarves and head wraps do an excellent job of keeping the wind from whipping your hair around, and they won’t leave a hat line or tangle your tresses as a beanie can. Whatever your preference in a hair covering it will protect both your style and the health of your hair on those super chilly days.

Don’t Shampoo Everyday

When it comes to keeping hair soft in winter, moisture is precious. Shampooing your hair every day strips away all of your natural oils and robs your hair and scalp of the natural moisture they need. Try changing up your routine. Instead of sudsing up daily, shampoo every other day or maybe even once per week if it suits your hair type. This will allow the natural oils that your scalp produces to stay in place longer to do their job.

Fight The Flakes

Cold weather doesn’t just mean flakes falling from the sky. It can also mean flakes falling from your head if you neglect your scalp. If you suffer from dandruff in the cooler months make sure to use shampoo and conditioner formulated to treat it and nourish your scalp a few times each week with a skin-soothing scalp oil to control the flakes.

Use Salon Quality Treatments At Home

Sometimes your hair just needs a little extra TLC. To give troubled tresses the attention they crave, once a week gives them an intense treatment with Eufora Beautifying Elixirs Moisture Masque. And when your hair needs a little extra help midweek reach for the Replenishing Treatment to replenish and nourish your hair. This little bit of extra love and care will go a long way toward maintaining manageability.

Eat Healthy To Strengthen Hair From Within

One of the best ways to ensure the health of your hair is to eat a healthy diet. Healthy proteins, whole grains, vitamin, and mineral-rich fruits and veggies, and biotin-rich fish, eggs, seeds and nuts will supply your follicles with what they need to grow strong, healthy hair. So don’t let our diet go simply because you’re covering up from head to toe.
