Summer is the time when your strands get a chance to shine but when winter arrives and wind starts blowing, you have to deal with dull and dry hair. Also, outside cold weather when combines with dry indoor heat can affect your tresses and can lead to breakage and split ends. But don’t freak out as here are some steps, which you can include in your daily hair care routine until the sun starts burning bright again:

     1.     Oil treatment: Applying good quality oil like Strong & Nourished Hair oil to your hair, before you shampoo them, will protect your hair from drying out and will also serve as a conditioning treatment. You can also use a heating cap or dryer for a few minutes to deep condition your hair. This way the oil will get deep into the hair shaft.

     2.   Let your hair feel cozy: The best way to protect your hair and scalp from cold is to cover your hair with a hat. You can also go for a silk knit hat or can wear a silk scarf under a woolen hair, if you think direct contact with hat will spoil your hair.

Run your fingers through the wet hair and keep a check on tangles while pulling these tangles apart with the help of a little conditioner.

The above simple steps can make a huge difference to the quality of your hair during harsh weather conditions. A little planning and dedication can make your hair beat the cold weather conditions and look as good as ever.
