Hair care in winter and summer: what is the difference?

We asked Marina Muradyan , a stylist, hairdresser with more than 14 years of experience, art director of Avalon Salon, about the difference in hair care in summer and winter.

As we know, luxurious hair can highlight natural beauty. And if we want to have an attractive appearance, then we need to take care of our curls in any season of the year, since each has its own negative effect on the hair. And I want to draw your attention to very important points of hair care in winter and summer.

In winter, it is necessary to protect your hair from two factors - frost outside and warm air indoors. Therefore, I advise you to purchase a line of nourishing or moisturizing cosmetics.

But I recommend moisturizing your hair not before going outside, but after a walk. After all, there is enough moisture outside during the cold season, and additional moisture can only harm your hair. But when you spend a long time in a room with dry air, from which your hair becomes dry, brittle and dull, then it is imperative to moisturize it.

Before leaving the house, apply a protective and nourishing hair cream along the length, especially if you do not want to hide your hair under a hat.

When it comes to styling, I recommend using an antistatic spray so that after wearing a hat or scarf, the hair does not become electrified and spoil the styling.

Always emphasize to clients that they should not go outside with wet or damp hair. And when drying with a hairdryer, recommend using hair oil or three-in-one cream: smoothing, antistatic and thermal protection.

What about hair care in the summer?

In summer, there are also two factors, the impact of which can lead to hair problems: the sun and the sea.

How to care for your hair in summer? During the hot season, I recommend using a moisturizing line, and after the sea - a nourishing or restorative line.

From time to time it is necessary to cleanse the scalp of the accumulation of fat (in summer, hair is more likely to become dirty), dust, and styling products. In addition, a sun protection series is required: shampoo, mask, conditioner and spray. If you spend your summer in the city, then apply sunscreen spray to your hair before going outside. In addition, there are many procedures that can only be done by specialists, so going to beauty salons won’t hurt either. In addition to care products, it is necessary to update your haircut. And I will tell you about the most successful haircut options for the winter in the next article.
