From hat hair to static electricity, split ends to dry frizz, when winter weather hits a bad hair day can last an entire season. In fact, even if you live in a moderate climate, you’re still susceptible to hair-raising changes as the seasons pass.
Many of us tend to think of summer as the time that’s toughest on our locks, thanks to all the expose to sunlight, chlorine, and saltwater. However, winter comes with its own set of weather-induced frustrations. Such as; dullness, breakage, and staticky locks.
The environment can have some of the most damaging effects on hair in both summer and winter, but in winter it’s often worse because people generally don’t take as many precautions to protect their hair.
Sun exposure (when can be as intense on a ski slope as it is on a beach) combined with a blustery winter wind (which can snarl hair) as well as snow, rain and icy cold (which makes hair brittle and dry) can all come together to create some pretty bad winter hair days. Winter is still your hair’s enemy. The reason is indoor heating can sometimes make your hair feel and have results as if you have been under the hairdryer all day.
There is good news! No matter what’s causing your winter hair woes, you can take both protective and preventative measures.

Dry Remedy Oil works for all hair types, the key is to use the correct amount for your hair type. For example, if you have fire hair, it is best to use 2 drops total when hair is wet. If you hair is thick or on the curly side, use 2 drops when hair is towel dried and 2 drops once hair is dry- always keeping to the ends and mid-length of hair and staying away from the root. This will avoid a greasy look. Instantly moisturizes hair by 41%, this product can be used on wet or dry hair.
