Baby, it’s cold outside! As the cold air freezes your breath and home, we do everything we can to keep ourselves warm. With hot, homemade meals and layers of clothing, we keep a fire burning in our bellies and every inch of our skin concealed and protected. However, more than often, we neglect our hair in the winter. At Belle Amour, we have all the winter hair hacks! Follow our hacks to ensure that your hair survives the temperature change.
Moisture, Moisture, Moisture!
If you didn’t catch that, your hair needs moisture this winter. This is more than just a winter hack, it’s a necessity! We’re sure this comes as no surprise for our guests with naturally dry or curly hair, but during winter, the cold air completely eradicates the moisture out of your hair and scalp – resulting in dry hair and scalp and an increased risk of brittle and snapping strands.
At Belle Amour, we offer a range of treatments to ensure that your hair looks full and shiny this winter. The two most popular services include deep conditioning and Olaplex treatment, which both effectively work to restore, repair and rebuild dry and damaged hair. As well as this, the treatments provide a layer of moisturising protection that shields your hair and scalp from the harsh effects of the winter.

Dry Your Hair Right
Blow drying your hair can feel like an unnecessary and tiresome task. We know it’s hard to master the blow dryer weapon, and let’s be honest, our arms start to ache halfway through the task. Yet, letting your hair dry naturally this winter is one of the worst things you can do.
The cycle of wet and dry hair affects your hair shafts. They will expand when wet and contract when dry, which is a normal cycle that eventually leads to hair breaking. However, leaving your hair wet for too long can cause the hair shaft to have a prolonged expansion, resulting in your hair being more prone to breakage and tangles.
At Belle Amour, we can give you that salon finish and ensure that your hair maintains a natural and healthy lifespan. Why not relax your arms and let our blow dry masters pamper you today!
Dirty Hair is The New Clean
If you’re a daily or frequent washer, then you’re destroying your hair! Our hair needs its natural oils. We know no one wants greasy hair, but if you overwash, it strips your hair of those vital oils that keep it nourished and healthy. Overwashing results in your hair and scalp being too dry, and when you combine that with a cold winter, your hair and scalp desperately need hydrating oils.
At Belle Amour, we recommend washing your hair only once or twice a week. Doing this will nourish your hair and encourage a healthy cycle of natural oil production. You will find that your hair requires less washing and will feel much softer. If you need advice on a washing routine or the right products for your hair, speak to Belle Amour’s expert stylists!
T.L.C
The most important winter hair hack isn’t even a hack; it’s a reminder from Belle Amour to take care of yourself. During this cold season, it is important that you keep your body well fed and hydrated. Dehydration can result in dry skin, hair, and other issues. Your water intake shouldn’t be as low as the temperature this winter; it should be as high as a heat wave – so drink plenty of fluids!
A balanced plate is also key. When you’re deficient in vitamins and minerals, it can weaken your hair. Ensure that you’re eating your fruit and veg, but if it’s challenging, introducing a multivitamin and mineral into your daily routine can have amazing benefits on your physical, mental and hair health. During winter, it is also recommended that you take a vitamin D supplement, as the change in weather means we don’t get enough of this essential vitamin that plays a vital role in stimulating new hair growth.
