Just like the seasons change, we find it necessary to change our skin and hair care regimen too. In the winter, we spend much more time indoors. Since it is cool outside, we are heating our homes and work places. This heated air has decreased humidity and therefore has a drying effect on our skin, nails and hair. Adding a humidifier will help replace moisture into the air, especially when you re sleeping.
Moisture adds elasticity to the hair and helps reduce the possibility of breakage.
The following articles will provide a few helpful tips that may help diminish the dry, brittle feel of hair during the winter months. It is necessary to replenish water internally, so increase your normal intake to at least two liters per day. Diet is also important. There is a tendency to diet after the holidays to shed extra pounds, however remember that an inadequate diet results in poor growth of nails, skin and hair. Eat a sufficient amount of proteins, fresh fruits and vegetables to hydrate the skin, nails and hair.
