At Southern Roots Hair Design, we know that as the temperature drops here in North Carolina, the "hair woes" start to rise. Between the biting cold wind outside and the dry heat cranking indoors, your hair is fighting a battle against the elements.
But don't worry, we're here to help you get back to those good hair days. Here's our guide to the most common winter hair struggles, and the organic, vegan, and natural ways to fix them using our favorite Natulique products.
The "Static Attack"
The woe: You know that moment when you've pulled off your favorite beanie (or toboggan, as we call them in the south, and no, we're not putting sleds on our heads), only to have your hair stand up like you just touched a plasma globe? Low humidity in the air causes static electricity to build up, leaving your strands wild and flying away.
The fix: Moisture is the enemy of static.
Southern Roots Tip: Switch to a hydrating routine that seals the hair cuticle.
The Natulique Solution: We recommend the Natulique Intensive Hair Mask. It’s 100% vegan and packed with fatty acids, lipids, and essential oils that weigh down that static without making your hair greasy. For an on-the-go fix, a light mist of Natulique’s Rejuvenating Hair Mist (my personal fave!) will instantly calm flyaways with natural, plant-based ingredients.
Brittle, “Crunchy” Ends
The woe: Just like your skin gets parched in the winter, your hair loses its elasticity. This leads to split ends and breakage, especially if you’re wearing wool scarves that rub against your hair all day.
The fix: Protect and nourish
Southern Roots Tip: Get a “dusting” trim mid-winter to keep splits from traveling up the hair shaft.
The Natulique Solution: Before you head out into the cold, apply a few drops of Natulique Moroccan Argan Oil. It’s a natural powerhouse that creates a protective barrier around your hair. Plus, it’s certified organic, so you know you’re only putting the best nutrients back into your locks.
Dull, “Blah” Color
The woe: Lack of sunlight and dry air can make even the most vibrant color look a little matte and lifeless by March.
The fix: Shine-enhancing organic care
Southern Roots Tip: Use a leave-in conditioner to keep the surface of your strands smooth so it reflects light better.
The Natulique Solution: The Natulique Spray & Leave Conditioner is our winter holy grail. It’s a natural way to boost shine and keep your color looking “salon-fresh” between appointments.
