Sascha Breuer, Silvikrin Style Consultant, provides his top tips for keeping winter hair in pristine condition
The dry and cold winter can be very damaging to your hair. The drop in temperature and increased use of central heating causes it to dry far more easily. Effective preventative measures are required during this season to ensure your hair is not damaged.
Hold on to your (cashmere) hat
When you're out and about this winter, wear a hat, not only to keep you warm but also to protect your hair from the cold weather. Invest in a hat made of cashmere rather than wool, as wool is very absorbent and will suck the moisture out of your hair, leaving it dry and prone to static.Also, the raw texture of wool is harsh on your hair while cashmere will ensure that it stays looking beautifully smooth and silky when you come in from the cold.
Replace lost moisture
Just like your skin, your hair needs more moisture in winter, so make sure you look after it properly and invest in a good shampoo and conditioner.Preventing lost moisture will help you avoid frizz and static. Use a hydrating hairspray such as Silvikrin HydroStyle (£1.99), which will help to replace the moisture lost during styling, and hydrate the hair to give a soft, supple feel.
