As we say goodbye to the sun-soaked days of summer, we welcome the warmth fall has to share. It's a season for sweater weather, pumpkin spice everything, and amazing foliage. But, as enchanting as the autumn season can be, it also presents new challenges for our hair.
How Does Autumn Affect Hair?
After months of soaking up the summer sun and being exposed to factors like chlorine, saltwater, and UV rays, our hair is often left dehydrated, brittle, and prone to breakage. Then, as the weather turns cooler and the air becomes drier, our hair is subject to further equilibrium where it readjusts internal water content. Then of course we start to lack volume, and see an increase in frizz and static. Just as our skin gets dry and needs extra moisturization in the fall, our hair also craves extra TLC to cope with the changing environment.
Fall Hair Care Tips
The crisp air of fall might be a welcome change from the sweltering summer heat, but it brings its own set of challenges. So we've put together some expert fall hair care tips and the right products to keep your hair looking its absolute best.
1. Trim Up Your Hair
Kick off the season with a fresh cut or trim to get rid of any split ends caused by summer sun exposure or roughed up cuticles. This leaves your hair healthier and ready to take on the cooler weather. It's also the perfect opportunity to try out a new fall hairstyle!
2. Increase Moisture Levels
Fall is a great time to consider an extra dose of hydration! The drop in temperature can rob your hair of its natural moisture, leaving it dry and frizzy. Incorporate our Signature Shampoo and Conditioner into your routine. These products, infused with nourishing ingredients, work together to provide an intense burst of moisture to your locks. For an extra hydration boost, our Signature Hair Mask, used once a week, will help to replenish your hair's moisture levels and add a healthy shine.

3. Volumizing Products Become a Go-To
With the humidity decreasing, you might find that your hair lacks the volume it had during the summer. Our Volumizing Texture Spray is here to rescue you from flat, lifeless hair. This lightweight formula gives your hair the instant volume it needs without weighing it down.

4. Use a Clarifying Shampoo
Summer can leave a lot of build-up at your scalp through ends from salt sprays, sunscreens, and more. Our Clarifying "Detox" Shampoo works to remove all that unwanted residue, giving your hair a fresh start for fall. If your hair is color-treated, use this sparingly to avoid stripping your hair of its color.

5. Use Protective Hairstyles
Shield your hair with protective hairstyles like braids, buns, or twists that tuck away your ends and reduce exposure to harsh elements, helping to prevent damage and breakage.
The fall season, while cozy and picturesque, can indeed be challenging for your hair. As the leaves change color, so does the nature of our hair and its needs.
