That's why we've put together a list of the main problems faced at this time of year:

  • dry hair: this usually affects women with curly hair. The problem is also hot water, which abruptly removes oil from the scalp, as well as very low relative humidity;
  • breakage and frizz: this happens mainly to those who go out with wet hair. The wind and cold end up "solidifying" this water and favoring breakage. Frizz, on the other hand, can be caused by wind and the use of hair dryers and flat irons;
