Fall for these autumn hair tips

As the season mellows slowly into autumn we have some  tips for autumn hair care to help you turn over a new leaf.

Repair sun-stressed tresses

Summer sun, chlorine and sea salt can leave hair dry and brittle, and your colour faded.

So let’s kickstart your autumn routine with a trim. Saying goodbye to those sun-damaged split ends will instantly refresh your look and prepare your hair for the new season.

Your scalp can suffer too becoming dry, itchy and irritated. Try scalp toners or an exfoliating scalp shampoo like – https://www.lorealprofessionnel.co.uk/scalp-advanced

Next up, hydration.

Using a deep conditioning treatment or hair mask at least once a week will replenish your hair’s moisture levels and combat dryness. https://www.lorealprofessionnel.co.uk/absolut-repair-molecular-for-hair-lovers nourishes your hair from roots to tips, helping restore the moisture lost during the hot summer months. Leave it on for 15-20 minutes and let it work its magic – it’s packed with hydrating goodies to lock in moisture, reduce frizzing and boost shine. Then rinse thoroughly.”

Fall for new cleansing routines

Chilly, blustery weather and dry heating combine to strip your hair of its natural moisture, leaving it brittle and prone to breakage.

Switch to a hydrating shampoo and conditioner, like https://www.lorealprofessionnel.co.uk/absolut-repair-molecular-for-hair-lovers which are formulated to replenish your hair’s moisture content, leaving it soft, manageable and shiny.

Tempting to stand under a hot shower on a chilly morning, hot water can also strip hair of essential oils, leaving it dry and dull. So wash your hair in cool water instead. As an added bonus it will help keep your colour vibrant and fresh too.”

My other top tip is to reduce shampoo frequency, as over washing can strip your hair of its natural oils.

Chill out this autumn

As the temperature drops you may be tempted to use your heat styling tools more often to tame your mane.

But, overuse of hot tools can strip your hair of its natural oils, causing breakage and frizz. Try to minimise their use by opting for natural drying whenever possible. And explore heatless styling ideas such as braids, twists and buns which cause less damage.

When you do use your heated tools always apply a heat protectant like https://www.lorealprofessionnel.co.uk/hair-care/mythic-oil/original-oil to shield your hair.
