Updated: Sep 17, 2020

So it's officially winter. Think cozy layers & throws, fireplaces, hot cocoa, & maybe a snow day or two. These things sound OK - I guess? - for a week or two - & then I start counting down to spring.

To you maybe they sound like a dream come true but they have obvious downsides for your hair. Winter weather can cause straw like strands, dry & itchy scalp, & static, just to name a few - & we haven't even mentioned the matting that comes from scarves & turtlenecks or the dreaded hat head!

Is your overall look feeling dry & parched - and not from too much chardonnay?
