Keneesha Hudson, curly hair expert, shares her best winter hair tips for keeping curly hair happy and healthy! Hydrate As the weather starts to cool down curly hair (already prone to dryness) gets even drier due to the crisper air. Counteract this by increasing hydration hair therapy! Pump up moisture by giving your hair deep treatments more frequently than you normally do. Extremely dry textures can even do daily treatments. It's also not a bad idea to head to the salon for a professional steam hydration therapy. For an at-home recession friendly (but still spa-worthy) experience, towel wrap your deeply conditioned tresses for 20 minutes after at least every other shampoo before rinsing. Moisture Rich Products Favorites: Ouidad 12 Minute Deep Treatment Phytokarite Miss Jessie's Rapid Recovery Update Your Look Everyone loves to rock a new look as the season changes. Try a new play on color by leaning toward the cinnamon and bronze hues. Have 2 to 3 tones foiled in at the salon, blending both highlights and low lights for a more natural look. Don't be afraid to throw a splash or two of honey blonde to pick-up the beautiful colors of the fall season! Longer Lasting Styles Cooler weather means that us ladies rockin' the curls, kinks and waves like to spend less time washing our hair and having to let it air dry. One of the best ways to achieve this is to "preserve" your style at night and refresh your look each morning. For loose waves, twist hair in large (cigar size) or larger plaits/braids at night. For tighter curls and kinks use clips or bobby pins to secure hair close to the head or twist at night. Remove clips in the morning and fluff hair at the roots. Be sure to use a firm styling gel or styling cream on wash day to help preserve your look. Is your hair prone to frizzies and fly-aways? For dry, loose curls spray a light refresher spay that contains a balance of oil and water and twirl curls with finger to pull frizz together for a defined curl. Tighter curls and kinks need a heavier refresher blend of water and glycerin product to hydrate the ends and then simply finger comb curls to de-frizz. Product Favorites for Refreshing Curls: Kinky Curly Spiral Spritz - Create Hydration with minimum hold DevaCurl Set It Free Jane Carter Solution Revitalizing Leave-In Spray CURLS Quenched Curls - Use daily or alone as a second day curl refresher Winter Hair Tips for the Scalp The cool crispy winter air is a trigger for scalp problems for those who typically never have to worry about scalp issues and it is torture season for the rest of us who battle with it all year long! Before the temperature dips from low to lower, start a regimen of regular scalp treatments. Treatments like these balance out the scalp flora, preventing fungus and also providing excellent hydration. Use a good blend of essential oils such as Phytopolliene or Jane Carter Solution Scalp Renew prior to shampoo and your seasonal dry scalp with be a thing of the past. For the flaky, itchy dry scalp, pump up the treatment by using Phytosquame or Jane Carter Solution Scalp Nourishing Serum. These potions exfoliate the scalp and eliminate flakes associated with eczema, psoriasis, and cradle cap, all conditions aggravated by the dry fall and winter air.
