As the chilly breeze of winter settles across Australia, it brings more than just the need for cozy jumpers and warm coffees it also brings a real challenge for your hair. For many Aussie men, winter means dealing with dry scalps, frizz, and dull, lifeless hair. At Allan’s Men’s Hairdressing, we believe good grooming should never take a season off. That’s why we’re sharing our top winter hair care tips to keep your hair looking sharp, hydrated, and healthy all season long.
1. Hydrate from Root to Tip
During winter, low humidity levels and indoor heating strip moisture from your hair and scalp. A hydrating shampoo and conditioner is your first line of defense.
Product Tip:
Look for shampoos with argan oil, coconut oil, or glycerin they lock in moisture and soothe the scalp.
2. Fight Off Dry Scalp & Flakes
One of the most common winter woes is dry scalp. It can lead to itchiness, flaking, and irritation not exactly the best look.
Dry Scalp Remedies:
-
Use a scalp scrub once a week to remove buildup.
-
Apply a light scalp oil treatment 1–2 times a week.
-
Avoid washing your hair with very hot water warm water is better for your scalp.
3. Get Regular Trims
Split ends and damaged hair are more noticeable in winter due to dryness. Schedule regular trims every 4–6 weeks at Allan’s Men’s Hairdressing to keep your hair looking tidy and in top shape.
Pro Tip: Don’t wait until your hair is unmanageable prevention is key to winter hair care.
4. Switch Up Your Styling Products
Heavy gels and sprays can make dry hair feel crunchy and dull. In winter, go for moisturizing styling creams or light pomades that offer control without drying your hair out.
Bonus Tip:
Apply styling products while your hair is slightly damp it helps to seal in moisture.
5. Wear Hats But Wisely
Wearing beanies in winter can cause hat hair and lead to sweat buildup. If you’re rocking a hat this season:
-
Choose breathable fabrics like cotton or wool blends.
-
Avoid wearing hats for extended periods.
-
Use a volumizing spray to bounce back your hair afterward.
