Caring for Your Hair as the Weather Turns Cold near Lexington, KY

Hello, fall! Hello, warm afternoons followed by a cool evening with sunsets that seem to drag on forever! Hello, boots and scarves and the smell of pumpkin spice! And of course, hello, fall hair! And while the season is changing, we update hair care routines to combat the stresses that the incoming colder weather can bring. Caring for your hair during fall involves proactive steps to fight frizz and hair-splitting damage with fall hair care products, heavy moisturizers, and a fun fall aesthetic.

Tips for Caring for your Hair

Frizz Protection

Reevaluate your choices for hair care products in the autumn to reduce frizz by choosing a product line that has a focus on hydration and conditioning. Nutriplenish™ from Aveda is a silicone, sulfate, paraben, gluten, mineral oil, and petrolatum-free product line that super hydrates hair without adding weight. The Nutriplenish™ product line includes:

• Nutriplenish™ Shampoo (Light or Deep Moisture)
• Nutriplenish™ Conditioner (Light or Deep Moisture)
• Nutriplenish™ Leave-In Conditioner
• Nutriplenish™ Multi-Use Hair Oil
• Nutriplenish™ Daily Moisturizing Treatment
• Nutriplenish™ Curl Gelee
  

Depending on the type of hair you have and the type of damage your hair suffers from, different products in this line may be of use in your haircare routine. However, the line overall provides incredible moisture and hydration, which is the key factor to look for in hair care products for the fall.

Extra Moisture

Once fall starts, start adding an extra conditioning step to your weekly hair care routine. Masques or deep conditioning treatments help stave off the drying effects of the season to keep hair healthy and shiny. Aveda offers several styles of masques, each adding a crucial element of deep conditioning to weekly hair care routines, and each has its additional niche features that can address other hair care needs of individual users.

• Botanical Repair™ Intensive strengthening Masque
• Invati Advanced™ Intensive Hair and Scalp Masque
• Dry Remedy™ Moisturizing Masque
• Smooth Infusion™ Smoothing Masque
• Sun Care After-Sun Hair Masque
• Damage Remedy™ Intensive Restructuring Treatment
• Be Curly™ Intensive Detangling Masque
  

1. Don’t Forget the Haircuts: While some aspects of routine hair care change season to season, there are other aspects like regular haircuts or trims that hold year-round. So, keep to a schedule so that every 8 to 12 weeks your hairstyle is refreshed with at the minimum a trim to get rid of split ends that will help to keep your look, looking good throughout the fall.
2. Use Seasonal Colors: In the autumn take hair care color inspiration from the season with a hair care color palette heavy with reds and auburns. Not only do these colors suit the style of the season, but darker tones are also better in the colder months because damage from bleaching or lightening your hair, popular for blonds in the summer, can be exasperated by the colder temperatures and dryness in the fall.
3. Embrace Scarves and Fall Accessories: With a fall breeze blowing, the season’s accessories like scarves or hats not only add a pop of style to outfits but also protect us from the turning weather. This protection can extend to your hair as well. Embrace scarves, hats, head wraps, and even hoods this autumn as a cute fashion accessory and a way to protect your hair from the drying and damaging effects of cold air. Never go outside in the fall or winter with wet hair, as those effects can be amplified, instead again turn to a scarf or head wrap to protect from the elements.
