In the fall, it can be difficult to maintain stylish hairstyles due to indoor and outdoor weather conditions.
Outdoors, the combination of humid weather and strong winds can cause hair to become frizzy, something that dry indoor heating can’t solve.
Luckily, Mariana Aidelkind, founder of Oblique House of Hair, spoke to Express.co.uk about how to solve this problem.
1. Keep your hair up
The expert explained: “Autumn winds and rain can cause your hair to become tangled and frizzy, especially if you wear it down. Over time, breakage can increase.
“To combat this, try different hairstyles that keep your hair up and out of your face even in harsh weather conditions.
“For example, high buns, ponytails, or braids. Be careful not to tie your hair too tightly, as this can create tension and friction in your hair, which can increase hair loss. Be sure to use a silk scrunchie to reduce stress and prevent stress on your scalp.
2. Avoid washing your hair too often
Washing your hair too often strips it of its natural oils, causing it to quickly lose moisture and become frizzy.
Instead, try to wash your hair two to three times a week and avoid dry shampooing between washes as it can dry out your hair.
Experts say, “Choose a boar hairbrush to help distribute your scalp’s natural oils throughout your hair.”
3. Deep conditioning mask
If your hair tends to be dry all year round, the “number one rule” to maintaining smooth hair is to keep it hydrated.
The hair professional continued: “A once-a-week deep conditioning treatment is great for repairing damage while providing intense hydration to your hair.
“Look for at-home masks that are formulated with key oils that nourish and moisturize your hair, such as argan oil, avocado oil, jojoba extract, and macadamia oil.
“Apply the mask from mid-lengths to ends, leave on for the recommended amount of time, then rinse thoroughly to leave hair soft and manageable.
“If your goal is to repair damaged hair and protect it with anti-aging benefits in the future, you need a professional treatment using active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, keratin, elastin, fibers and a blend of oils. It may be.”
4. Use volumizing shampoo and conditioner
To combat “flat and lifeless” hair during the winter months, choose shampoos and conditioners that add volume and lift.
According to the pros, these products are designed to increase root volume and give your hair a fuller look.
Mariana says: ‘Volumizing shampoos usually contain ingredients such as proteins and polymers that coat the hair shaft to create thickness and texture.
“Gently cleanses while boosting volume, making it ideal for fine hair or hair weighed down by natural buildup of dust, dirt, sweat, etc. A volumizing conditioner that helps keep hair silky soft. Specially formulated to nourish hair without sacrificing volume.
