Tips for better hair during the winter

Dry skin, chapped lips and flaky scalps are some of the worst parts of winter in New England. I interviewed Phillip, owner and stylist of Phillip DePalma Salons, who offered tips for keeping your hair healthy through the harsh, dry weather.

1. Wear a hat outside.

2. Use a deep conditioning mask weekly and use leave-in conditioner.

3. Add shine with a color gloss.

4. Don’t wash your hair as often as you do in the summer.

5. Use lukewarm water instead of hot water.

Lastly, Phillip said to massage your scalp all year long – it helps promote growth!
