Winter Hair Care Tips and Products to Support You Through Cold Weather
Finding the right winter hair care heroes is essential for keeping strands healthy all season.
Winter is a charming and magical season, but it’s no secret that it brings along a few hair challenges. However, these worries are no match for the right winter hair care products and routine. We’ve compiled exactly what your hair needs during winter, and curated a list of Davines bestsellers that will work hard to keep your hair healthy long into the coldest months.
Why Winter Hair Needs Extra Care
As we move from season to season, your hair deals with different weather conditions, humidity and dampness in the air, and other factors (such as the warm breeze from a heater). Winter has one of the most drastic climates, bringing with it frigid temperatures, hot indoor areas, and air that fluctuates between damp and dry.
This blend creates the perfect storm that leads to dryness, unmanageability, dullness, and static. Don’t let this worry you! With the right products, winter can actually be your hair’s season to shine. You can protect and nourish your hair and scalp with ease.

Hydration Heroes: Deep Nourishment for Dry Hair
One of the biggest winter hair care problems is dryness. No matter your hair shape or condition, this can impact anyone. Your best solution lies in creating a mask and leave-in routine that works with your hair type specifically.
Winter Hair Masks
Here are a few recommendations from The Circle Chronicles, which has a mask for everyone:
The Restless Circle: A hydrating, anti-breakage mask that’s great for overnight use.
The Renaissance Circle: Ideal for repairing damage and restoring softness.
The Spotlight Circle: Gives you both shine and hydration in one mask.
The Quick Fix Circle: Perfect for giving softness and moisture to anyone short on time.

Winter Leave-In Formulas
Once your restorative masks are washed out, try pairing them with a leave-in formula to lock in hydration.
MOMO Hair Potion: The entire MOMO line is infused with melon extract to plump hair with moisture.This Is A Curl Gel: Rehydrates curls whilst smoothing out flyaways and frizz.
Beautiful Things Restoring Leave-in Mask: Perfect for protecting coloured hair, especially with frequent hot tool use during the holiday party season.
Heart of Glass Sheer Glaze: This leave-in protects blonde tones from heat and adds shine and hydration.
Winter Dryness Solutions
With winter’s freezing-cold air taking moisture from your hair, it might feel impossible to hold onto shine. You may not be able to control the weather, but you can defend against it. OI is one such line that brings back the possibility of having glossy, smooth hair all winter, thanks to antioxidant-rich Roucou oil.
For extra shine: Use OI Oil to smooth down hair and create the sleekest strands whilst detangling and hydrating.
- For major moisture: Combine OI Hair Butter and OI Liquid Luster for an intensive treatment that repairs, nourishes and softens.
- For all hair types: The anti-humidity More Inside This is a Primer protects from heat, prevents flyaways and keeps your blowout looking shiny.
- For curly hair: Create impeccable definition and bounce without weighing hair down with More Inside This is a Curl Building Serum.
- For a sleek finish: Sleek, shiny strands are possible all throughout winter with the humidity-deflecting Relaxing Moisturizing Fluid from More Inside.
- For the best hold: Winter air will never deflate your looks with a few spritzes of the More Inside Extra Strong Hair Spray, which keeps everything in place and is moisture-resistant.
Lightweight Winter Hydration for Fine Hair
Fine hair is subject to dryness, just like any other hair type. However, if you have fine hair, you know that many moisturizing products can be too heavy or greasy. The key is finding a lightweight formula that’s capable of hydrating, whether that’s a shampoo and conditioner duo or a leave-in.
Scalp Care in Winter
It’s easy to focus on your roots, lengths, and ends, but your scalp health is just as important. This is especially true in winter when skin tends to feel drier—scalp included. This is only exacerbated by heating and dry air indoors and the dry, cold air outside. Having a few formulas on hand can support maintaining a healthy, balanced scalp by soothing and nourishing it.
The Renewing Shampoo and Conditioner from Naturaltech serve as winter saviors for your scalp. The former hydrates and boosts shine while also supporting anti-ageing. The latter is a unique conditioner that can be applied from scalp to end, giving you whole-head moisture.
Another option is Naturaltech’s Calming line, which features blueberry phytoceuticals (read: protective plant-powered ingredients) that calm inflammation, which you can experience through the gentle shampoo or the comforting scalp serum.
You can also consider adding the Elevating Scalp Recovery Treatment to your routine. This is particularly helpful for more sensitive scalps. It boosts scalp hydration by 23%* immediately after using and improves the skin barrier by 10%* directly after applying.

Creating Hair Volume During Winter
If your hair seems to lose its volume come wintertime, there are a few ways you can support a little more texture.
Lifeless hair can come from wearing hats or winter air that sucks out moisture and leads to limpness. Liquid Spell Reinforcing Bodifying Fluid gives a little lift to fine hair. This mousse has amino acids that not only boost body but also strengthen the outer hair fibre.
The Volume-Boosting Mousse from More Inside is another must for your styling toolkit. Its creamy texture glides in and leaves your hair with lightweight, natural body.

Innovative Winter Hair Hydration
As you know, hydration is the foundation of healthy winter hair. With extra moisture, you can avoid dryness and flat strands. To complete your routine, consider incorporating Naturaltech Replumping’s Hair Filler Superactive.
It features what we like to call winter’s moisture magnet: hyaluronic acid. This important ingredient is able to hold large quantities of water, keeping it in your hair. The leave-in also has plum phytoceuticals to help plump each strand and boost hair’s body and shine.
As a final option for products that both boost moisture and support styling, reach for the More Inside Oil Non Oil. It helps give hair better manageability without making it feel heavy or greasy. If you aren’t usually one to use styling products, this is the perfect introduction, and one you won’t notice once it’s applied—you’ll only spot the wonderful benefits!
