Cold air outside, dry heat inside, and heavier wardrobes all take a toll on your hair in winter. The result? Dehydration, static, breakage, and dull color. Here’s how to protect your hair through the season without overcomplicating your routine.
1. Prioritize Moisture at the Shampoo Bowl
Winter hair needs hydration first, not more washing. Switch to a moisture-focused cleanser that replenishes without stripping.
Redken Solution:
All Soft Shampoo + Conditioner or All Soft Mega for extremely dry or coarse hair.
These formulas restore softness, flexibility, and manageability while protecting the hair fiber from winter dehydration.
2. Treat Weekly Not Just When Hair Feels “Dry”
By the time hair feels dry, damage is already happening. Weekly treatments maintain elasticity and prevent breakage caused by cold weather and friction from coats and scarves.
Redken Solution:
All Soft Heavy Cream Mask or Acidic Bonding Concentrate 5-Minute Mask
These treatments reinforce internal strength while sealing moisture into the cuticle.
3. Protect Hair from Heat and Static
Blow dryers, flat irons, and indoor heat pull moisture from the hair, leading to flyaways and brittleness.
Redken Solution:
One United Multi-Benefit Treatment Spray
Provides heat protection, detangling, frizz control, and lightweight moisture in one step.
4. Maintain Your Trim and Color Care Schedule
Dry ends split faster in winter, and dull color can fade without proper care.
Redken Solution:
- Acidic Bonding Concentrate Leave-In to strengthen chemically treated hair
