Winter Hair Care Tips from Philip Kingsley!

Winter is the MOST difficult time for your hair because the weather changes from damp and humid to cold and very dry as well as everything in-between.

As we fight against the cold by using centrally heated homes, scarves and hats, it is more difficult to control your hair and this leads to limpness, frizz, flaky scalps and dullness.

Bad hair days are often brought on by bad weather. MOISTURE AND PROTECTION are the best defence for winter hair woes. As cold weather has moved in, the change in conditions affects your hair in a big and bad way.

Your hair absorbs moisture from the air. As cold winter air contains much less moisture than warm air your hair tends to dry out making it frizzy and more vulnerable to damage. Your dehydrated hair is thirsty. It needs to be re-moisturised and protected from damage.

Follow these simple survival tips and you will avoid winter hair nightmares and have more happy hair days:

REHYDRATE your hair more often with Elasticizer or Elasticizer Extreme. Use Elasticizer for fine, medium or coarse hair or Elasticizer Extreme for very damaged or porous afro ethnic hair.
WASHING AND CONDITIONING DAILY will help its overall appearance. Less frequent washing will cause the scalp to flake which will lead to dull looking hair. It’s very important to continue daily shampooing and consider switching to a richer conditioner
WEATHERPROOF & PROTECT it from the elements and lock in moisture by applying Weatherproof Styling Froth when damp and Weatherproof Hairspray to finish.
Stay Hydrated by drinking 1.5 litres of water per day and maintain a healthy diet to nourish your hair. Also use a humidifier to combat and protect against dry air in centrally heated places.
