Winterproof Your Hair
Our skin isn't the only thing the blustery winter weather ruins. Believe it or not, but hair is also vulnerable when temperatures drop. Keep your locks moisturized, healthy, and full with three tips every person should know.
* '''Lay off the shampoo:''' Although shampoo keeps your hair clean, it also strips your scalp of necessary oils. This is isn't good during the winter when the air is dry. To avoid dry hair and flyaways, shampoo your hair every other day and invest in a
moisturizing cleanser.
* '''Condition:''' Combat driedin formula. You can use these treatments once a week or more, depending on your hair.
* '''Hats Away:''' Moms always told us to cover our heads when it's cold out, but they obviously didn't think about what hats do to our hair! Hats actually increase production of oil or waxy matter, thus making hair greasy and limp. We're not telling you to go without a hat this winter, but you'll want to wear one that is clean and fits your head.
