Dry ends, flattened hair and electrified hair are the eternal companions of frost. Together with the household appliance brand Dreame , we tell you how to care for your hair in winter to preserve the beauty of your curls.
Choose a headdress
It not only protects against colds, but also helps maintain the quality of hair. Bad weather dries out curls, making them more prone to breakage, so a hat in winter is a must-have. However, every hat is different. For example, thick synthetic models are not the best friends of wavy and curly hair. Because of them, the hair is crushed at the roots, and the curls themselves fall apart , get tangled and electrified. As a result, instead of a stylish hairstyle, you get a brownie Kuzya hairstyle on your head. If you are faced with such a problem, it is better to give preference to loose snoods or hoods made of natural materials.
To combat the unpleasant effect of electrified hair, use special static removers and a hair dryer with a negative ionization function, such as the Hair Glory from Dreame. The device produces 300 million anions, which is more than any other model from the brand. Anions remove static electricity, so even those with thin and unruly locks can style their hair without fear of damaging.
Use moisturizers and heat protectants
Bad weather is not the only reason why hair may look worse than usual. Scorching radiators at home and air conditioning turned on in the office dry out the air, and at the same time, draw out the water necessary for a beautiful hairstyle from your locks. Therefore, hair care at this time should be especially thorough: it is important to choose a nourishing “winter” mask, a conditioner that suits your locks, and a leave-in serum or milk. In addition, if you use stylers or irons, do not forget about additional heat-protective products – they create a film on the hair that prevents the evaporation of liquid under the influence of high temperatures.
To ensure that your efforts to moisturize your locks do not go to waste, check your hair dryer. Ideally, it should have a temperature surge control function. Dreame Hair Artist has one . The intelligent NTC system takes more than a hundred measurements per second to prevent damage to your hair from strong heat. At the slightest deviation from the safe temperature of 57 °C, the hair dryer triggers a fuse. This model also has an anion generator, which helps to achieve smoothness and elasticity of the locks. Negatively charged ions work as a conditioner and maintain an optimal level of moisture inside the hair. And thanks to the brushless motor, modern fan and shock absorption system, the gadget works very quietly. So quietly that you can talk to your family while drying your hair.
Dry your hair with cool air
This tip is a continuation of the previous one. When everything around you is literally sucking moisture out of your hair, you shouldn’t make the situation worse by turning on the hair dryer to maximum, especially before using other styling gadgets.
The ideal mode for winter is cool air, which imitates natural drying. This option is available in any Dreame hair dryer, even in the most budget model Ionic Hair Dryer L10 . This device is compact, quiet, and most importantly, lightweight. The device weighs 475 grams, so your hand will not get tired if you dry long hair with cool air at minimum speed. It is also convenient to take on trips or business trips and not worry that a simple hotel hair dryer will ruin your beauty rituals.
Pay attention to the ends
Trimming the ends from time to time is useful from an aesthetic point of view. This helps to remove split ends – as a result, the hairstyle looks neater. The procedure should be carried out based on the condition of the hair and its growth rate, but in the cold season, as a rule, the frequency varies from four to eight weeks. If you do not like to hide the length under a hat, then using special products for the ends in hair care in winter will definitely not hurt. For example, you can consider products based on natural oils. Unlike “water” creams and serums, they will not freeze in the cold and make the strands brittle.
The safe design of the hair dryer will help to additionally protect your curls from injury. The air ducts of almost all Dreame models are designed in such a way that they do not suck in hair. With them, you do not need to wriggle and look for a position in which the gadget will not throw up an unpleasant surprise in the form of tangles and burnt ends. So even owners of very long hair will be able to dry the roots comfortably. In addition, all models are equipped with magnetic attachments for directed flow. With such a set, it will not be difficult to neatly style fluffy ends.
Don’t go outside immediately after blow-drying your hair
It is advisable to let your hair cool down completely: warm air makes it quite difficult to feel whether your locks are dry. The habit of running out into the cold without drying your hair properly can cause serious harm: your locks will become brittle and lifeless in appearance.
If it is difficult to devote much time to hair care, a hair dryer with a quick-drying function will help out. For example, Dreame Hair Gleam works due to the flow rate, not its temperature. The manufacturer equipped the device with a powerful brushless motor that supplies air under pressure at a speed of up to 65 m/s. So, to dry medium-length hair, it will take only three minutes.
This model has 4 temperature settings. For example, for safe drying, the manufacturer recommends choosing 57 °C; for those who prefer cool air, 25 °C, and for those with waves and curls, a combination mode that automatically alternates between cold and warm air.
