Seasonal Hair Care: How to Keep Your Scalp and Hair Healthy Year-Round

Your hair goes through natural cycles all year, and seasonal changes can influence shedding, scalp health, and hair texture. From spring pollen to winter dryness, understanding what your hair needs in each season can help you maintain healthy, shiny, and strong strands - all without harsh ingredients or unnecessary irritation.

Why Seasonal Hair Shedding Happens

Hair shedding is normal and part of your hair growth cycle. Seasonal shifts, such as longer daylight hours, temperature changes, and humidity fluctuations, can push more hairs into the resting (telogen) and shedding (exogen) phases. Spring and autumn are the most noticeable periods for shedding, but it’s usually temporary, lasting a few weeks to a couple of months.

Tip: If you notice excessive shedding, thinning, or bald patches, consult a doctor to rule out other causes.

Spring Hair Care Tips

• Gentle cleansing: Pollen and springtime pollutants can irritate the scalp. Use a mild shampoo to cleanse without stripping.
  Our fragrance-free In-Residencia Hydrating Shampoo with Fermented Probiotics, Cationic Hyaluronic Acid, and Panthenol (B5).
• Hydration: Spring weather can shift between humid and dry, leaving hair parched. Condition with lightweight, gentle formulas to maintain shine and softness.
  Our In-Residencia Hydrating Conditioner features Cationic Hyaluronic Acid which bonds moisture to hair.
• Scalp support: Regular scalp massages improve circulation and support hair follicles. Nutrient-rich serums with ingredients such as Baicapil™ & Niacinamide provide extra nourishment.
  Try Noche Balancing Scalp Sérum for hydration and follicle support overnight.
• Sun protection: Longer days mean more UV exposure. Hats or UV-protective hair products help prevent dryness and damage.

Summer Hair Care Tips

• Rinse after swimming: Chlorine and saltwater can damage hair cuticles and dry the scalp. Rinse thoroughly and follow with a gentle shampoo.
• UV protection: Summer sun can weaken hair and cause shedding. Use protective sprays or hats.
• Moisture & nourishment: Keep strands hydrated and scalp nourished. Gentle formulas and targeted serums help support follicle health.
  Our In-Residencia Hydrating Duo features Fermented Probiotics which supports the scalp environment.
• Limit heat styling: Embrace natural textures when possible to prevent stress and breakage.
• Nutrition for hair: Omega-3s, leafy greens, and collagen-rich foods and supplements support strong, healthy strands from the inside out.

Autumn Hair Care Tips

• Hydrate and protect: Cooler, drier air can strip moisture. A gentle, consistent hair and scalp routine helps maintain softness and hydration.
  Try the Wash Day Ceremonia.
• Nourish the scalp: Nutrient-rich serums with ingredients such as Baicapil™ & Niacinamide provide extra nourishment.
  Try Noche Balancing Scalp Sérum for hydration and follicle support overnight.
• Reduce friction: Silk scrunchies and satin pillowcases help prevent breakage.
• Trim and style gently: Remove split ends and avoid tight hairstyles to minimize hair stress.

Winter Hair Care Tips

• Hydrate scalp and hair: Dry indoor heating can leave hair brittle. Fragrance-free shampoos and conditioners maintain moisture. Try I In-Residencia Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner.
• Nightly care: Root-focused serums can nourish hair overnight. Example: Noche Balancing Scalp Sérum.
• Limit washing: Over-washing strips natural oils. Stick to 2-3 times per week and use dry shampoo as needed.
• Protect from friction & heat: Silk or satin hats, gentle brushing, and lower heat styling reduce breakage and maintain healthy strands.
