Why does the cold damage hair?
Discover the natural routine to protect your hair. Low temperatures can be harsh on our hair, exposing it to dry cold which can lead to damage such as dehydration and brittleness. To minimize cold damage, it is recommended to use moisturizing hair products, limit the use of heat tools, protect your hair with hats or scarves in cold weather, and maintain a routine of hair care adapted to the season.
Find out how to combat damage to hair caused by the cold by adopting a specific care routine with products from the Comptoir des Huiles brand.
How to guarantee healthy hair despite the cold?
Hair maintenance is essential, and with low temperatures our hair needs special attention.
The #1 need for hair in winter: hydration. Make sure to use hydrating hair products such as shampoos and conditioners that are appropriate for your hair type. Marula oil , enriched with essential fatty acids, is suitable for all hair types, providing hydration and shine. It offers deep repair and prevents dryness caused by cold.
Our advice: apply a few drops of Marula oil to your ends to protect your hair, before putting on your hat and going out to face the cold.
What to do for oily hair?
Cold weather can lead to hair challenges, including greasy hair caused by frequent wearing of bonnets. Rich in gadoleic acid, Jojoba oil can be an effective solution thanks to its balancing and moisturizing properties. It moisturizes without clogging pores, ideal for oily hair. This oil deeply nourishes the hair fiber to restore suppleness and shine to dry and brittle hair.
Our advice: apply several drops to the scalp and/or lengths to make a mask. Leave the Jojoba oil on for at least 15 minutes or overnight if possible before shampooing.
How do I ensure my hair grows?
Dry air can cause hair to dehydrate and thus cause breakage. You can boost your hair growth with Castor oil . Recognized for its composition rich in fatty acids and vitamin E, it brings shine, strength and stimulates blood circulation, thus promoting hair growth.
Our advice: opt for an oil bath, generously applying Castor oil to the entire hair, paying particular attention to the ends. Leave on overnight for deep hydration.
