winter hair woes

As much as we love what winter brings: endless layers, cozy knits, the social acceptance of toques as a fashion statement, hitting the slopes on the weekends and the abundance of warm drink selections at local coffee shops and watering holes– in no way, shape or form do we love what it does to our Hair.
Read on for our biggest cold weather gripes, and what to do overcome them.

STATIC
Pulling on sweaters, wearing our favourite above-mentioned winter hats, and simply the cold air in general, can leave you with static and flyaways.

DRYNESS
Depending on where you live, colder temperatures can mean drier weather. Plus, increased time spent indoors with the heat cranked can also lead to dryer than normal hair.

FRIZZ
If you live in a coastal city like Vancouver, winter is not so much about white fluffy stuff as it is wet. And, with moisture in the air, your perfect blowout can be ruined just by stepping out the door.

SPLIT ENDS
Extra dryness in the air can also mean breakage and split ends.

DANDRUFF
Dandruff effects 1 in 3 people, and the lack of UV rays in the Winter make it much more prominent during chillier season.

Several Tips:
1、Emulsify a small amount of Smoothing Balm in your hands and smooth over dry hair. Focus on smoothing and taming frizz and flyaways at the roots and polishing to the ends of your Hair.
2、After shampooing, apply a quarter-sized amount of Fast Food on clean, damp hair, focusing on ends. Comb through. Do not rinse.
3、Spray liberally over dry, finished style, ensuring every strand is weather-protected. Spray as often as needed throughout the day.
