Why this worksSpring brings changes in humidity and temperature that can affect your hair's moisture levels. By adjusting your routine, you can maintain hydration and protect against environmental stressors. This helps ensure your hair stays strong, shiny, and manageable as the seasons change.

The ritual, step by step

Hydrate with a Deep Conditioner Start your spring hair care by applying a rich deep conditioner. Focus on mid-lengths to ends, where moisture is often needed most. Cover with a shower cap for 20-30 minutes to allow the product to penetrate deeply.
Detangle Gently Use a wide-tooth comb or your fingers to detangle your hair while it's damp and conditioned. Always start from the ends and work your way up to prevent breakage and keep your strands intact.
Protect from Sun Damage Incorporate a UV protectant spray into your routine to shield your hair from the sun's harsh rays. Apply it before heading outdoors to keep your hair colour vibrant and prevent dryness.
Limit Heat Styling Try to limit the use of heat styling tools in spring. Opt for air-drying or protective styles to reduce damage. If you must use heat, always apply a heat protectant spray first.
Regular Trims Schedule regular trims every 6-8 weeks to eliminate split ends and promote healthy growth. This keeps your hair looking fresh and prevents further damage.

Where people go wrong

One common mistake is not hydrating enough during spring, causing dryness. Another is using too much heat without protection, leading to damage. Lastly, skipping trims can result in split ends that hinder growth.

The pro moveConsider using a silk or satin scarf at night to reduce friction and keep your hair moisturised.
