Hair Scare — and Repair!
TROUBLESOME TRESSES? WE KNOW JUST WHAT YOU NEED…
HAT HAIR, DO CARE
Like Vanessa Hudgens (right), we’re all about taking cover under a beanie when the temperature dips — but is there a way to avoid having strands matted to the scalp when you take the hat off? Yes, ladies, there is! Since this happens because your beanie is sucking all the moisture from your strands and leaving it lifeless, try using a leave-in conditioner to lock in extra hydration.

ELIMINATE DANDRUFF
Wintry weather wreaks havoc on skin — even on your scalp — leaving it dry and parched. During cold-weather months, try switching to a shampoo that contains salicylic acid to help get rid of the buildup of dead skin (aka, flakes).

SAYONARA, TANGLES!
Tossing and turning while you sleep can leave locks looking like a knotted, frizzy mess by morning. Switch to a silk pillowcase, so hair glides over the fabric while you’re sleeping — and doesn’t tug and snag the way it does against cotton.

TAME STATIC
Dry, frigid temps can create an electrical charge in your hair and make strands stand up (it’s kind of funny, but not so cute). To combat, spray a lightweight oil on locks to create a delicate shield against unwanted, hair-raising moments.
