There are so many lovely things about winter: warm woolly jumpers and fluffy slippers, hot soups and mulled wine, open fires and cosy radiators, and of course Christmas. But if there is one thing we do not look forward to, it is dull, flyaway hair. So how can we beat the winter frizz and keep our hair looking healthy?
Why Does Winter Affect Our Hair?
A few everyday winter habits can leave hair and scalp feeling drier than usual:
- Hotter showers: understandable in the colder months, but very hot water can dry out the hair and scalp, so try turning the temperature down while you rinse your hair.
- Hats and heated rooms: generally fine, but long periods in them, together with drier, colder air outside, can leave the hair and scalp feeling dry.
- Going to bed with wet or damp hair: the moisture is trapped between your head and the pillow, which can dry out your hair.
How Can TEGEN Help You This Winter?
Avoid straighteners and curling irons, which dry out your hair, and style your hair into an updo instead. This also helps to keep winter tangles at bay. You will find a lovely range of hair claws, barrettes and hair pins to choose from.

Intensive conditioning is the key to reviving winter hair. Hair is at its most fragile when wet, so we recommend working conditioner through with one of our smooth, hand-polished combs, such as the 12cm French Narrow Comb, to be gentle on your hair.
So whether you are staying cosy this winter, roasting chestnuts by the fire, hitting the slopes or simply braving the weather, TEGEN is here to help keep your hair looking lovely all year round.
