How to combat dry frizzy hair

Winter 2019

“Healthy hair starts with a shampoo that cleans but does not strip out the natural oils”


 

Welcome, winter! We love all things cozy and warm including scarves, toques, earmuffs and headbands. All of these are great at keeping us warm, but did you know they might be affecting your hair?

During the winter months the air especially in our region is very dry. Add to that the constant influx of heat being forced into the air from your furnace and your car as the temperature drops, and we are in fact drying out our beautiful locks. When we wrap our heads in fibres like scarves and toques the moisture from our hair is being absorbed into those fibres. The result? More dry frizzy hair.

Mary Ann Lacoursiere at Envy Salon and Spa says using products that are sulfate free, paraben free and silicone free can definitely help. “Healthy hair starts with a shampoo that cleans but does not strip out the natural oils. Replenish the hair with proper proteins and moisture secures hair to be full, soft, shining and smooth.”

Lacoursiere recommends the No Frizz line of products by Living Proof. “It weightlessly blocks humidity so hair is frizz-free, soft and smooth, without feeling heavy or greasy.”
