Winter weather may feel cosy, but it’s definitely not friendly to your hair. Cold winds, low humidity, and indoor heating can leave your hair dry, frizzy, and lifeless. At The Fade Club Surrey, we see this every winter—clients coming in with dry ends, dull texture, and irritated scalps.
The good news? With a few simple adjustments, you can keep your hair looking healthy and sharp all season long. Here are our top barber-approved winter hair care tips.
💧 1. Keep Your Hair Hydrated
Cold air pulls moisture out of your hair, leaving it dry and brittle.
What to do:
- Use a hydrating shampoo and conditioner
- Apply a leave-in conditioner or light hair cream
- Avoid washing too often—2–3 times a week is perfect
✂️ 2. Trim Regularly to Avoid Split Ends
Winter makes hair more prone to splitting and breakage.
Our recommendation at The Fade Club Surrey:
Get a trim every 2–3 weeks to maintain your fade and remove dry ends.
🛢️ 3. Oil Your Scalp Carefully
Dry weather = dry scalp.
A little natural oil can help restore moisture and prevent flakes.
Best options:
- Jojoba oil
- Coconut oil
Massage gently once or twice a week—not daily.
🔥 4. Reduce Hot Shower Exposure
Hot showers feel amazing in the winter but strip natural oils from your scalp.
Better option:
Use warm water and finish with a cool rinse to lock in moisture.
🧢 5. Choose Hair-Friendly Winter Hats
Certain fabrics cause friction, dryness, and frizz.
Tip:
Pick hats with silk or satin linings, or wear a thin silk durag/beanie liner underneath.
🧴 6. Switch to Winter-Friendly Hair Products
Some products are too drying for winter.
Use more:
- Cream pomades
- Hydrating sprays
- Lightweight natural oils
These help keep your hair smooth and moisturised in cold weather.
🥤 7. Stay Hydrated & Eat for Healthy Hair
Healthy hair starts from within.
Winter hair boosters:
- Plenty of water
- Foods rich in Omega-3 (salmon, walnuts)
- Biotin & Vitamin E rich foods
🌙 8. Protect Your Hair While Sleeping
Cotton pillowcases absorb moisture and create friction.
Try:
- A satin pillowcase, or
- Wearing a silk durag at night
This reduces breakage and keeps your hair smooth.
