A new season is an excellent time for you to change your look. As we go into the New Year, you can try to welcome it with a brand new style! In the winter of 2018, we were inspired by the many different haircuts and hairstyles!
Winter haircuts 2018 embraced the shorter hair trend. Although there are a few great haircuts in the list for longer hair, and really, you can alter any the looks to make it suit your hair length, short hair seems to be predominant in the winter time. We do not mind it since short hair can look chic, elegant and require as little maintenance as possible!
During the winter it becomes extra important to take care of your hair and keep it nourished and hydrated. During this time hair is prone to become dry, and it can look frizzy which is not the desired looks (perhaps why everyone is so eager to chop off their mane).

In this dry weather, it becomes essential to take care of your scalp and hair since dry hair can often grow brittle and prone to breakage. Make sure that you oil your scalp with some olive oil to help it retain moisture and keep it from flaking. In the winter it is also vital to use deep conditioning treatments at least once a week to help your hair stay shiny and soft.
Since frizziness can be a problem for everyone during the winter, it is essential for you to care for your hair while it dries. Using a towel, or putting your hair in a bun while it is still damp can cause you to aggravate frizz problem further. Not to mention, tying up your hair while it is still wet can make it break, and be prone to damage.
Finally, the most crucial step in helping you maintain the shine and bounce of your hair is the hardest of all: showering in lukewarm water rather than hot water. We know that in the winter you do not want anything more than just stand under the shower with almost boiling hot water. But, hot water can strip off the good oils and moisture present on the scalp and hair and result in it drying out even faster. Hence, in the winter it is essential that you shower using only lukewarm water to help the moisture stay locked in!
