Essential winter hair care tips for healthy, shiny locks
Winter in the UAE is magical, a mix of mild temperature and pleasant weather. This season is known to be the perfect escape from the harsh, icy winters you experience elsewhere. However, exposure to cooler temperatures, low humidity, and indoor air conditioning can significantly impact the health of your hair.
At Pastels hair and beauty salon, we fully understand the unique needs of hair during winter. In this blog, we will share some tips that, with a few adjustments to your hair routine and some professional care, will help you maintain healthy and shiny locks.
Hydrate, hydrate, and hydrate!
Although winter in the UAE isn’t icy cold, the dry air can still leave your hair feeling dehydrated. Hydration is essential for combating frizz, dryness, and dullness, restoring your hair's natural shine.

Hydration alone isn’t enough to keep your hair healthy during the winter months. Protecting it from heat styling and other environmental factors is equally important.
Minimize heat styling.
As the season changes and cooler weather sets in, you may be more tempted to use heat styling tools more often. However, the overuse of these tools can lead to dry, brittle, and damaged hair. In order to avoid that, here are a few of our recommendations:
Always apply a heat protector spray before using the blow-dryer, curling iron or straightener.
Opt for lower heat settings and try heat-free styling techniques such as braids to achieve the natural waves.
While protecting your hair from heat is crucial, cleansing it gently also plays a key role in maintaining moisture and health during winter.
Opt for gentle cleansing:
Frequently washing your hair in winter, especially with low humidity, can strip it of its natural oils and moisturizers, leading to damage and breakage.
Choose a sulfate-free shampoo to cleanse without drying your scalp
Limit washing to two or three times a week.
Keep your hair healthy and shiny all winter long!
Although, winter in the UAE may be mild, your hair still deserves a little extra love and care to keep it looking its best. By abiding by these tips and with regular visits to the professionals in our salon, we can guarantee a healthy, shiny and full of life locks all season long.
