Winters can be the worst time of the year for your hair. Often we find people complaining about their hair getting dry, weak and breaks easily when the temperature decreases. This can be due to the fact that the hair loses its moisture and often gets dry and lifeless. With the onset of winters, your hair care routine should also change according to the climate so that it is healthy and moisturized.

Here are a few tips which you can follow in the winters to keep your hair healthy-

1. Cover your head - Cover your head with a hat or a scarf and protect it from the cold, wet winters. You can also wrap your head with a scarf before putting on the hat which will also protect your hair from getting tangled with the course material. Wearing a hat will keep your hair from getting dry and lifeless.

2. Wash Often - Make sure your hair is getting the moisture it needs. Drink plenty of water as apart from keeping your body hydrated, your hair will also benefit from it. Shampooing every day can make your hair dry and frizzy so make sure that you oil and condition it regularly. Rinse your hair properly after a swim because the chlorine in the pool water can damage your hair. Clean your scalp while washing so that it stays healthy.

3. Opt for deep Conditioning - With the temperature dropping, you must deep condition your hair at least once a month or once in two weeks depending on your hair type. Deep conditioning helps keep the moisture locked, strengthens your hair and prevents breakage and hair fall. Deep conditioning requires a plastic wrap which helps the conditioner to penetrate.

4. Wear Protective Styles - You can style your hair in a way that will keep it away from your face and neck and at the same time make you look presentable. You can try braids, topknots, buns, high ponytails, etc. These hairdos also help prevent unwanted breakage and tangling.
