Well, Christmas is just around the corner, and with this rejoicing event, comes the hardship of bearing the unbearable cold. Well, at least if you don’t plan to go to the tropics for holidays.

But if you are among many who stays behind and enjoy what their homeland has to offer during the Christmas holidays, you should get your hair prepared against the chilly weather right away.

For all of us who live in the Western hemisphere, especially in Canada, the weather during Christmas days is nothing less than a cold-blooded freezer.

Temperatures are normally around zero to -5 or -10 at times, especially in December, January, and February. That is why I have carefully chosen and brought you some of the best ways with which you can keep your hair from getting damaged during these harsh winter times.

So, find out below some of the easiest methods to take care of your hair during the chilly Christmas season –courtesy of Westport Hair & Co.

Wearing a Hat is a Necessity -:

It is very important to cover your hair during the entire chilly weather, and not just on Christmas, whenever you go out. The excessively chilled air, snow, and fog snatches all the moisture from your hair and leaves them rigid, dry, and frizzy.

The combination of these attributions exaggerates hair loss and damage. Wearing a hat protects your hair from all these harmful effects of extreme cold weather.

However, you should also keep in mind that not all fabrics are good for hair. Only wear hats that are made of silk and satin, or else hats made from other fabrics will also cause hair damage.  

Basic Haircut & Treatment is Also a Necessity -:

Before you decide to go out to an exotic location/party to celebrate Christmas and the annual holidays with your loved ones – get some hair trimming and fixing! Hair that has split or loose ends unfixed or is not prepared for a trip outside will most possibly get more damaged. 

Oiling Your Hair from Inside Out -:

Natural oils such as coconut, olive, argan, jojoba, etc., are all high-quality protectors and hair strengthening agents. Especially when it is winter and you have a double occasion to celebrate in the out, rinsing and applying natural oils on your hair will help retain hair moisture and shine.

Among the best hair oils to use in winter, the finest is argan oil. It Is naturally made as an anti-cold oil and brings a revitalizing effect on your hair. It is also lightweight and instantly applies to the roots of the hair and provides them protection.

Blow-Drying Your Hair is a Strict No -:

Whenever you have a shower during cold holiday events, be sure not to blow-dry them via an electric dryer. Instead, let your hair dry from the natural air that surrounds you.

Blow-dryer heating and fast airflow suck the moisture out of your hair rapidly, and especially when the temperatures are extremely low. Therefore, heat-free natural hair drying is recommended for your hair in the winter season.

It will also be very helpful when you are styling your hair for twists, braids, or buns when going out partying and celebrating Christmas holiday events.

Do Not Wash Your Hair After Every Outing -:

One last thing to care for during the chilly holidays of Christmas and the new year is to avoid washing your hair before and after every event/outing on every single day. While a regular bath has its benefits for overall bodily health, it is not particularly recommended when it comes to hair.

Over-washing strips your hair of your natural oil and moisture, leaving them vulnerable against dry and harsh winter air. This is because in winter hair needs more of these natural concentrations to keep them in a healthy state. 

Final Word …
