The second the heat kicks on, our hair seems to throw a tantrum — dry ends, flyaways, frizz that won’t quit. Sound familiar? Winter doesn’t have to be the season of bad hair days. With a few smart tweaks, you can keep your hair soft, shiny, and actually manageable (yes, even under that knit beanie).

Keep the Moisture Coming

Cold air outside, dry heat inside — your hair is basically stuck between two moisture thieves. The fix? Switch to a shampoo and conditioner that focuses on hydration. Rich formulas add back what the season takes away, so your strands don’t feel brittle by the time January rolls around.

Bonus tip: Massage conditioner into your scalp too. Your scalp gets dry in the winter just like your skin.

Watch the Hot Stuff

We know — nothing beats a hot shower when you’re freezing. But here’s the thing: the hotter the water, the more it dries out your hair. Stick to warm (not boiling) showers and turn down the heat on your blow dryer or flat iron when you can.

Treat Your Hair Like It’s Thirsty (Because It Is)

A weekly mask or leave-in conditioner can do wonders. Think of it as your hair’s big gulp of water in the middle of a desert. The extra hydration helps smooth the cuticle, which means less frizz and more shine.
