Winter Hair Care in Central Otago
Dry, static, dull winter hair? Here's how to protect your hair through a Central Otago winter, from our Queenstown stylists.
Central Otago winters are beautiful — but the cold, dry air, indoor heating and beanies can leave hair dehydrated, static and dull. Here's how to keep it healthy until spring.
Fight the dryness
Low humidity pulls moisture out of your hair. Swap to a richer, hydrating shampoo and conditioner, and add a weekly mask. If your ends feel straw-like, a salon moisture or bond treatment makes a noticeable difference.
Tame the static
- A few drops of hair oil through the lengths smooths the cuticle and stops fly-aways.
- Avoid over-washing — it strips natural oils your hair needs in winter.
- Beanie static? Smooth with a little leave-in before you head out.
Look after your scalp
Heating and hot showers can leave the scalp dry and flaky. A gentle, balancing shampoo and the occasional scalp treatment keeps it comfortable and healthy — the foundation of good hair.
Keep colour cool
Winter is the perfect time for a richer, dimensional blonde or a glossy brunette. Book a toner refresh to fight the dullness that cold weather can bring, and keep your colour looking expensive.
