The change in weather as winter approaches can wreak absolute havoc on your hair.

Cold winds, sleet and frost strip hair of moisture and when you add central heating on top of that, it’s not long before your hair has turned to straw.

With that in mind, here are a few simple tips that will help you restore your mane to its former glory for the winter months ahead.

Always dry your hair fully

Never EVER leave the house with wet hair, especially during winter, which is especially of note to all you gym goers.

Why?

Cold air, added to the moisture in your wet hair, will only serve to make your hair even more brittle and dry. No thanks.

Caring for her hair

Treat yourself

Treatments are the business.

It can be hard to find time to devote to a hair mask but when you do, the difference is noticeable.

While some treatments need to be left on for an hour, or in some cases overnight, the TRESemmé Platinum Strength Treatment Shot only needs 60 seconds to work on your hair.

Formulated with a Renewing Complex, this deep conditioning treatment gives you the strength and moisture your hair craves, protecting it against future breakage.

Maintenance is key

Looking after your hair’s health means you need to get it trimmed regularly, every six to eight weeks if possible.

Scheduling in regular visits to your stylist can be difficult, due to busy workloads and lack of budgets, but it is worth making the effort.

By doing this you get rid of the most damaged areas of your hair which means shiny, softer and healthier looking hair.

Wash with care

If you take more time and care washing your hair, you’ll see a big difference in how long your hair lasts between washes.

Plenty of people wash their hair every day but if your hair is dry and coarse, think about washing it every second day to help retain moisture and your hair’s natural oils.

When you do wash it, use a shampoo and conditioner aimed at protecting your hair from styling damage while also visibly repairing, by reinforcing the hair’s natural barrier.

After using TRESemmé’s Platinum Strength Shampoo and Conditioner, 82% of 150 women agree hair looks healthier.
