Winterizing Your Hair Care Experts say harsh winter weather and a change in temperatures can be hair's No. 1 enemy. From hat hair to static electricity, split ends to dry frizz, when winter weather hits, a bad hair day can last an entire season.Here's some suggestions; 1. Use conditioner after every shampoo Using a conditioner can significantly improve the look of damaged or weathered hair, decreasing static electricity, improving strength and offering some protection from harmful UV rays. 2.
