Whether you hunker down with central heating at home, frequently venture out into the frigid air or are fortunate enough to live in a Mediterranean climate that’s dry and sunny year-round, winter is the time to reassess your hair routine. The main reason? Minimal moisture. Indoor heat, cold weather and low humidity all play a part in robbing your hair of the moisture it needs. How can you tell if your hair is dry? Look for flyaways, a loss of shine and manageability and overall droopiness and dullness. If your strands are suddenly super thirsty, it’s time for a reset. And no matter what type of hair you have—fine, medium, or thick—Biolage Hydra Source has the perfect hair care regimen for you.

If your hair is fine:

We get it—fine hair folks tend to steer clear of moisturizing hair products because they can weigh down slender strands and make them look sparser than they really are. But even fine hair needs moisture, especially in winter. The solution? Super lightweight formulas that hydrate without heaviness. This pro-approved Biolage regimen is ideal for cold weather months. You might also alternate between these moisturizing formulas and your favorite volumizing products from week to week.

Shampoo: Hydra Source Shampoo for Dry Hair

This gentle cleanser leaves hair moisturized and shiny without weighing it down.

Condition: Hydra Source Detangling Solution for Dry Hair

While your hair might not need a heavy conditioner, it will still benefit from detangling and control. This rinse-out detangler controls winter flyaways and static as it silkens your hair. Apply after shampooing, wait 1-3 minutes and rinse.

Nourish: Strength Recovery Deep Treatment Pack

Fine hair often needs strengthening as well as moisture. This treatment delivers both. Pop it on after shampooing once a week or so to add shine and hydration and shore up weak strands.

For some extra daily moisture, mist this onto clean, damp hair before styling. You’ll get ongoing shine with this lightweight formula that controls flyaways.

If you’re not using a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner, now is the time to make a switch. You’ll be amazed at the difference that a hydrating regimen will make when it comes to winter hair woes like dullness and static-y hat hair.
