How the Winter Weather Can Affect Your Hair and Scalp
Winter weather can have an effect on your entire body, including your hair and scalp. If you notice that your head feels dry or itchy in cold weather, you’re not alone. Wind, snow, and even the frequent use of winter hats can lead to discomfort or damage for men and women of all ages.
Thankfully, there are ways to protect your hair and improve its appearance. In this guide, we’ll detail the most common challenges you can have with cold-weather hair, as well as which treatment and prevention options can make a difference in enhancing your confidence and avoiding hair loss.
Dry Hair and Scalp
According to WebMD, seasonal weather changes can have a big effect on your scalp. This includes winter weather, which is both cold and dry. The cool, arid climate zaps the moisture from every part of your skin, including the skin that is on your head. If you have dry scalp in winter, you may notice small, white flakes on your clothing. Your head may also start to itch.
To combat dry scalp symptoms due to cold weather, limit your time in the most frigid conditions. You can also turn to certain hair products. Many shampoos, conditioners, and styling formulas help to return moisture to your hair and head.
Seasonal Hair Loss
Some hair loss is normal, no matter the time of year. As the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) tells us, you can expect to lose up to 100 hairs from your head per day. While it’s not a cause of concern to see loose hair when you brush or wash, you may notice a little more than usual during fall or winter. This is known as seasonal hair loss. Some researchers think the hair is shed after summer because excess strands help to protect you from dangerous UV rays. It’s also possible that your autumn hair loss may occur before the thicker strands arrive in the winter.
There may be little you can do to prevent seasonal weather changes. However, you can do a few helpful things at home to combat the effects of seasonal hair loss. These include gentle brushing and washing, adjusting your normal hairstyle to make sure it’s less tight on the scalp, and using hair products that encourage the growth and protection of healthy strands of hair.
Other Common Winter Hair Challenges
The lack of moisture on your scalp and within your hair shaft can also leave it looking dull. You may miss the shine or luster that is usually present during the warmer months. Dry air also produces more static electricity, which can lead to frizzy hair or make it stand up more often.
Another common complaint during wintertime involves finding split ends. If you haven’t cut your hair recently, the arid climate can cause the ends of your hair to look worn or frayed. This can cause your entire haircut to look less polished than before.
