Winter Hair Rescue

When temperatures drop and the heating goes on, our hair often pays the price. Cold winds, indoor heating, and damp winters can leave your strands dry, dull, and frizzy- and your scalp tight, itchy or flaky. The good news? With the right care (and a few plant-powered helpers), your hair can stay healthy, shiny, and strong all winter long.

Winter brings two main hair challenges: dryness and stress:

• Dry air indoors and outdoors draws moisture out of both your hair and scalp.

• Temperature changes- from cold winds to warm radiators- cause your hair cuticle to expand and contract, leading to breakage and frizz.

• Hats and scarves may protect you from the cold but can also cause friction and static.

• Less sunlight and lower humidity can slow natural oil production, leaving the scalp unbalanced.

All this adds up to hair that feels brittle, loses shine, and becomes more prone to split ends.

The Natural Way to Rescue Your Hair

Plant-based hair care works in harmony with your hair’s natural rhythm- hydrating, soothing, and protecting without harsh synthetics or silicones. Hers’s how to give your hair the love it needs this season:

1. Nourish with a hair oil

   Cold weather calls for deeper nourishment. Massage a few drops of a hair oil into your scalp and lengths once or twice a week. Ayluna’s Wondertree Intensive Hair Oil- rich in organic argan oil, organic coconut oil and organic burdock root oil is ideal for protecting against moisture loss and reducing frizz.

2. Switch to a gentle, moisture rich shampoo

   Try to avoid shampoos that strip your scalp. Look for sulphate-free, pH balanced formulas with plant extracts to cleanse while keeping hydration intact. Our Shampoo for Shine & Care, enriched with organic damask rose, deeply nourishes hair for added shine, strengthens the hair follicles and provides moisture. If you feel that your scalp is dry, try using our Shampoo for Dandruff & Dry Scalp, with organic rosemary and juniper wood oil, as it has anti-inflammatory properties to soothe dry or irritated skin.

3. Condition

   After every wash, seal in moisture with a natural conditioner. Ayluna’s Conditioner for Shine & Easy Comb, containing organic burdock root and organic pomegranate, is suitable for every hair type while soothing inflammation, stimluating hair growth, strengthening the hair follicles and leaving your hair soft and shiny.

4. Rinse smart

   If possible, rinse your hair with lukewarm water (not hot) water. Hot water can strip natural oils, making dryness worse. Finish with a cool rinse to boost shine.

5. Protect your ends

   Apply a small amount of leave-in conditioner or hair oil to your ends before stepping out. It creates a natural barrier against cold air and humidity swings.

6. Care for your scalp

   Your scalp needs as much love as your strands! Gently exfoliate once a week with a natural scrub or by massaging your scalp with oil before washing. This helps remove flakes, boost circulation, and support healthy hair growth.

Transform a simple routine into a cosy self-care ritual:

1. Warm a towel or wrap to keep around your hair after applying oil.

2. Sip herbal tea while the oils work their magic.

3. Rinse gently, apply conditioner, and finish with a cool rinse.

4. Let your hair air-dry naturally whenever possible.
