Winter Hair Care


The cold winter months can be brutal on your hair. From the dry air to the threat of rain a girl can real have issues keeping a style. So to combat the winter months, we’ve put together a list that can help you keep your hair extensions and your natural hair healthy all winter long.

Winter Do’s and Don’ts:
  • Start with great products. This may be the time that you switch up your routine and invest in some more luxurious products. Moisturizing shampoos & conditioners, hydrating and leave-in products help to keep your hair from drying out (roots to ends). 
  • Incorporate a deep conditioning treatment. We sometimes overdo it with the heat and this is the season for shedding so you want to make sure you’re loving your hair and protecting your cuticles.
  • Take a break from heat… at least no everyday heat. Your hair just can’t handle too much heat in the winter months this leads to excessive damage (breakage and dryness). 
  • Trim those ends. This should go without saying. Your hair will grow healthier with regular trimmings by your stylist.

Let It Glow: 9 Ways to Glowing Winter Skin

Here are 9 ways to keep beautiful glowing skin this winter: 


1.   Switch it up:
·         During the winter months put aside oil-fighting cleansers, toners, moisturizers and treatments and start using hydration-boosting products.
2.   Keep active:
·         Continue having an active life by taking in lots of water and exercising.
3.   Watch the temperature:
·         Don’t turn up the heat in the tub or shower. Hot water will dehydrate your skin.
4.   Wash and glow:
·         Keep exfoliating year-round to keep your glow factor. Reveal brighter, younger skin cells by using a glycolic acid cleanser rather than a grainy scrub.
5.   Don’t skip the SPF:
·         Sunscreen is a year-round necessity. Ultraviolet rays will replace your natural glow with discoloration, dryness, and eventually, wrinkles.
6.   Fight the flakes:
·         By using a heavier moisturizer. Apply it morning and night to the face and neck area and spot-treat as needed to quench dry spots, soothe and restore.
7.   Oil it up:
·         Applying oil to skin helps impart the glow that everyone wants. The quickest way to fake glowing skin is to use a good facial oil. It will give you a healthy shine, not a greasy look. Oils help nourish the skin from the inside out and actually help balance and control natural oil production.
8.   Nutrients:
·         A healthy diet is the key to healthy glowing skin; eat clean and green.
9.   Humidify it:
·         Use a humidifier to place moisture in the air to combat the heat and closed windows. The air inside can become very dry in the winter. This can keep skin from drying and becoming cracked and itchy.
