Brr! Winter can be a tough time for your hair. Between the cold weather and the dry air, it’s easy for your locks to become damaged. If you’re having trouble with frizz, static, or other common winter hair problems, don’t worry – Douglas Carroll Salon has you covered! In this blog post, we’ll discuss the top 5 winter hair problems and how to solve them.

Frizz

One of the most common winter hair problems is frizz. Darn that dry air! To combat this, use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner to keep your hair hydrated – our experts can recommend a product that works best for your hair type. You can also try using a leave-in conditioner or an anti-frizz serum. If you’re really struggling with frizz, you can even try a deep conditioning treatment (hint: Douglas Carroll Salon offers an amazing experience!).

Static

Another common winter hair problem is static. This often happens when your hair rubs against a sweater, scarf, or other material. To avoid static, use a leave-in conditioner or an anti-static spray. You can also try using a humidifier in your home to add moisture to the air. It’s good for your hair, and can help with congestion too! 

Dryness

Dryness is a common winter hair problem because the cold weather can strip your hair of its natural oils. To combat dryness, use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. Oil-based serums can also help with moisturizing. If your hair is particularly dry, you may want to consider a professional keratin treatment. Contact us today for more info!

Breakage

Breakage is another common winter hair problem. When your hair is dry and brittle, it’s more likely to snap. To avoid breakage, use a gentle shampoo, conditioner, and an oil-based serum. As with dryness, a professional keratin treatment may help solve this riddle should it prove maddening. 

Tangles

Winter hair is often dry and damaged (see the common theme?), and it’s more likely to tangle. To avoid tangles, use a detangling shampoo. Outside of the shower, never underestimate the power of a good detangling brush. Speak with a DCS expert on brushes that may work for you!
