    No doubt winter can be pretty damaging to one’s hair. In winter, many people face hair problems like excessive hair fall, damage, and dandruff. Cold, dry air, severe weather, and all that comes with it can dehydrate your hair and make it more prone to breaking than in the warmer months. So, how to take care of hair in winter naturally? Let’s have a look at the 15 easy ways to control winter hair damage.

    Hair damage and loss can also be caused due to stress, extreme weight loss, dieting, and hormonal imbalances. To get the best advice about your health consult with a Nutritionist. You now book an online appointment with the Best Nutritionists in Pakistan for as low as 100/- PKR only. 

    15 Ways to Take Care of Hair in Winter Naturally

     

    In this section, you’ll find 15 effective ways to take care of hair in winter naturally:

    1. Hot Oil Treatment

    For those of you who have dry and brittle hair, a hot oil treatment can be a lifesaver because heat helps the oil penetrate the scalp providing it with moisture. You can use any oil for this purpose, but some of the best oils that we recommend are coconut, olive, and mustard oil.
    Whatever oil you use for your hot oil treatment, make sure it is free of mineral oils; otherwise, it will do nothing for your hair. You should massage your scalp in moderate circular motions with your fingertips rather than your nails. Try to keep the oil for at least 30 minutes, or you can even leave it overnight.

    2. Sulfate-Free Shampoo

    Sulfates are foaming agents added in shampoos to remove dirt from the hair. But, these molecules are very powerful and can’t differentiate between excess oil and normal sebum. So, they can drain too much oil from the hair, leaving it dry, brittle, and prone to damage. It is why you should always use a sulfate-free and mild shampoo to maintain the natural moisture balance of your hair.

    3. Do not Wash your Hair every day.

    Shampooing your hair on a regular basis removes its natural oils, creating more dryness and irritation. Therefore, increase the duration between washing as much as possible. You should shampoo your hair no more than twice a week.

    4. Trim Hair Regularly

    Trimming your hair every four to eight weeks is an excellent strategy to keep your hair healthy and looking good. Trim a half-inch from the bottom to lessen the likelihood of dry hair and split ends. It also promotes hair growth and saves your hair from looking dull and damaged.

    5. Hot Water is Not Good for Hair

    In winters, a steamy shower is what we look forward to when the temperature is below freezing. But, this hot water can remove moisture from your hair, making it brittle and prone to breaking. You should wash your hair with lukewarm water and then rinse it with some cool water. It might sound intimidating right now, but you’ll see the difference in hair after just a few washes.

    6. Less Styling with Heat

    As much fun as blowing out, straightening, and curling hair, it may damage healthy hair. Allow your hair to air dry whenever possible, and take a break from straightening and curling irons. You can try different hairstyles that don’t require heat, like braids, or go for heatless curls and waves.

    7. Don’t Comb Wet Hair.

    Wet hair is more prone to breakage than dry hair, so you should brush or comb them after drying. Moreover, walking outside with wet hair in the cold can cause it to freeze and break. While air drying is preferable, blow-drying your hair is preferable to going outside with a wet head. But, remember not to do this often because blow drying can reduce the moisture, causing them to become dry.

    8. Hair Mask Every Week

    Weekly hair mask treatments are a good preventive practice to maintain the overall health of your hair. A hair mask including nourishing and hydrating components such as egg and honey can moisturize the hair. Natural ingredients like yogurt, honey, and eggs hydrate dry hair, promote hair development, give shine, and soften the hair. You can also add different oils to the hair mask to give your hair extra strength.

    9. Buy a Humidifier

    In the winter season, the low humidity levels lead our hair to dry up, become brittle, and more prone to breakage. Dry hair is not only complicated to handle, but it is also weaker. If your hair is rough, extremely dry, or difficult to manage, this is a sign that you should invest in a humidifier and keep it at your bedside while sleeping.

    10. Coconut Oil for Dandruff

    While you may be aware that coconut oil can be eaten or cooked with, it is also an alternative skincare product that delivers hydration to dry skin, including your scalp. Coconut oil can be applied to the scalp to nourish it, prevent dandruff, and promote hair growth. According to research on coconut oil for hair, it has the potential to provide more than one benefit to persons suffering from dandruff.

    11. Change it Up

    Tying your hair in the same or very tight knots every day can result in tension which can result in a receding hairline and breaking. Try to style your hair in a different way every day. Also, before going to bed, untie your hair and let it hang loose behind your head. Sleep on a pillowcase made entirely of cotton or satin to avoid static, moisture loss, and breakage.

    12. Brush at least Twice Every day

    Brush your hair every day in the morning and at night. Haircare professionals recommend doing so because it helps distribute your scalp’s natural oils through your hair. By doing this, your hair will be more moisturized and will not appear dull and dry.

    13. Get Hair Vitamins Naturally from Food

    Diet is vital in maintaining healthy skin and hair. Your hair growth, strength, and volume are influenced by the foods you eat. Proteins, lipids, vitamins, and minerals are vital for strong, healthy hair. Having nutritional deficiencies can also cause hair loss and damage.

    14. Wear a Scarf or Hat

    When your hair is exposed to cold, dry wind and snow, it becomes damaged. Therefore, you must cover it with a scarf or a hat while stepping out. Line your hat with silk or satin cloth to avoid friction from the cotton and woolen fabrics. It will also be useful to combat static and tame flyaways.

    15. Dry Hair with a T-shirt or Microfiber towel

    When you dry your hair, avoid using cotton bath towels. Instead, use microfiber towels or an old t-shirt instead. They are easy on your hair, have a high water absorption capacity, and aid in the reduction of friction and drying time.

    Consult a Dietitian

    Winters can be a tough season for those of us suffering from hair problems like excessive hair loss. When combined with other factors like a poor diet, hormonal issues, and stress hair loss can increase. Therefore, consulting a dietitian or nutritionist is essential.
