As winter settles in, it's not just your wardrobe that needs an upgrade—your hair care routine needs a little TLC too! The cold weather and dry indoor heat can quickly leave your hair feeling brittle, dry, and lackluster. But don’t worry—at Modern Wave Salon and Spa, we’re here to help you keep your hair healthy, hydrated, and glowing all season long.
Why Winter is Hard on Your Hair
The colder months bring a combination of factors that can damage your hair: low humidity, chilly air, and the drying effects of indoor heat. These conditions strip your hair of its natural moisture, resulting in frizz, breakage, and split ends. Plus, the friction from hats, scarves, and coats can further contribute to hair stress.
But with a few strategic steps and the right treatments, you can combat winter’s harsh effects and maintain shiny, smooth hair. Here at Modern Wave, we offer expert salon treatments and at-home care tips to keep your hair in top shape all season long.

At-Home Hair Care Tips for Winter
In addition to professional salon treatments, it’s essential to follow a nourishing at-home routine. Here are some tips to help you winter-proof your hair:
1. Hydrate with the Right Shampoo and Conditioner Switch to hydrating shampoos and conditioners that are sulfate-free and rich in oils and humectants. Aveda’s botanical-based products are great for gentle cleansing and intense moisture, perfect for combatting winter dryness.
2. Weekly Hair Masks Treat your hair to a nourishing mask once a week. Apply generously to your mid-lengths and ends, and leave it on for 10-15 minutes to deeply moisturize and repair.
3. Minimize Heat Styling Hot tools like curling irons and straighteners can exacerbate dryness and cause heat damage. When you do use heat, always apply a heat protectant to shield your hair.
4. Protect Your Hair from the Cold Cold, windy weather can strip moisture from your hair. Protect your strands by wearing a hat or scarf, and choose silk-lined accessories to reduce friction and minimize breakage.
5. Use Leave-In Conditioner Leave-in conditioner is your best friend in the winter. It provides an extra layer of moisture, detangles, and keeps your hair frizz-free and shiny all day long.
6. Don’t Over-Wash Your Hair Washing your hair too often can strip it of its natural oils. Instead, wash your hair 2-3 times per week and use dry shampoo in between to keep it fresh.
7. Stay Hydrated Drinking plenty of water is crucial for maintaining healthy hair. Incorporating omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins like biotin into your diet also helps support hair health from the inside out.
8. Sleep on a Silk Pillowcase Silk pillowcases reduce friction and help maintain your hair’s moisture balance while you sleep. This simple swap can make a big difference in preventing frizz and breakage.
Don’t let winter get the best of your hair. Whether you need a deep conditioning treatment, a revitalizing scalp refresh, or just a trim, our team at Modern Wave Salon and Spa is here to help you keep your hair looking its best all season.
