After several months of hot weather and fun in the sun, fall is on the horizon. As you transition your home and wardrobe to match the new season, remember that cold, dry weather can also affect your skin and hair. Here are a few hair care tips to help you get the most from your autumn haircut. 

Top 3 Hair Care Tips for Your Fall Look

1. Try Deep Conditioning 

As temperatures drop and the air gets drier, your scalp and hair can also dry out. This can lead to an itchy scalp, dandruff, and frizz. Switching to moisturizing shampoo and conditioner and trying leave-in deep conditioners every week or so will provide your locks with essential nutrients to keep them soft and healthy. 

2. Embrace Gentle Styling 

If you’re planning a dramatic new fall haircut, you might need to change your styling routine as well. Ask the stylist for product recommendations to prevent flyaways and static as the weather gets drier—these serums and sprays will also control strands if you need to wear a hat or scarf. Avoid excessive heat styling and tight braids, buns, and ponytails to prevent breakage. 

2. Schedule Routine Haircuts

Hair can become brittle in cold weather, causing split ends. While a new haircut can combat this breakage, you may need periodic trims to help the new ‘do retain its shape and keep strands healthy. Men should schedule appointments every four to five weeks, and women with longer hair should visit the salon every six to eight weeks. Not only will these haircuts protect your hair against damage, but the appointments will also give you a chance to get to know your stylist and receive personalized recommendations.
