5 Ways Your Hair-Care Routine Should Change for Fall
The saying goes, "sweater weather is better weather." But the change in temperature can really confuse your hair—and we're talking both color and texture, here.
1. Amp Up Moisture
You know the itchy, dry skin that naturally comes with colder weather? The same goes for your hair. The transition between summer to fall is when it is vital to add a hair mask or change your shampoo or conditioner so your hair can adjust to the change in temperature. Look for extra moisturizing ingredients like jojoba oil and buriti to secure hydration in your strands.
2. Use Natural Ingredients
Prevent further drying your hair by keeping your products all-natural. Natural ingredients are the go-to because they won't strip your hair of oils like synthetic and alcohol based ingredients do.
3. Go Darker
3. Go Darker
Summer is synonymous with sun-kissed hair, with highlights a staple for pretty much all shades. But as your time spent outside shortens as the weather gets colder, those highlights will fade.Beat nature to the punch by going a shade or two darker for fall. Coloring it darker allows this transition to happen easier and evens out the color.
4. Invest in Volumizer
Lots of humidity = big hair. As the weather gets colder, the humidity decreases, which may cause your hair to go flat. Womp womp.
5. Try a Clarifying Shampoo
Summer can leave a lot of build-up at your roots – salt sprays, sunscreens, and sand can all cause greasy, limp roots. No bueno. Start the new season off right by giving your scalp a good detox by using a clarifying shampoo once every two weeks. Disclaimer: Clarifying shampoos are not made for those for color treated hair because it will strip hair of color. Color-virgins only. So if you go with tip three, skip tip five.
