How to Restore Moisture, Luster and Strength to Your Hair in winter


Winter accompanies many hair woes. One of the most problematic aspects of it is that it robs the hair of its moisture leaving it dry and unruly. To add further, you cannot help wearing woolen hats and scarves that make the hair even drier.

You can get resort from these drying effects through a proper shampoo and conditioner. Protein rich shampoos are a good option. If you wish to try conditioning at home, wear a plastic cap after applying the conditioner so it is soaked into the cuticle. Going for a cholesterol conditioner may suffice the protein requirement adequately. It is better to prefer mousse to other hair gels, during winter as it does not interfere with the moisture content of the scalp and keeps it away from drying.

Excessive blow-drying during winter may prove hazardous for the hair making it dry. A thermal spray helps to retain the moisture during curling and drying your hair with heat. An occasional hot oil treatment is also beneficial for your hair. If you do not wish to go for oil massage, then you have another option, yogurt available for you. Do not go for a styling aid that has alcohol content as it may lead to further drying. If you are good at applying herbal therapies to combat dryness, you can massage your scalp with Aloe-Vera juice to relieve dryness.

Many natural products deter drying effectively. Have you ever tried fresh coconut paste over your scalp? It moisturizes the scalp and renders a cooling effect. Egg white is yet another option that relieves drying and cools the scalp. Thus, a little care on your part is sure to keep your hair healthy and lustrous even in winter that robs your hair of its essential moisture content.
