The damp weather of spring not only makes us feel uneasy, but it can also be a real pain when it comes to hair styling. Your luscious locks will become flat and frizzy, and no matter how much effort you put into styling them, they will become greasy and messy in just a few minutes. No worries, we’ll explain the reasons why spring is killing your hair and share with you some hacks to keep your hair nice and refreshed.

Why is spring giving me flat and frizzy hair?

Temperature swings coupled with strong ultraviolet light in the sun can leave your scalp fragile and sensitive. So, it’s essential to nourish your scalp, or else its sebaceous glands will become unstable and produce more sebum, causing inflammation and impaired hair texture.

What’s more, pollen in spring can aggravate sensitive scalps and eczema, causing unbearable itchiness. According to statistics, 50% of people suffer from dandruff problems in spring due to the prevalence of mould in this season. If you neglect scalp care and cleansing, it will become a perfect breeding ground for mould, leading to greasy and flat hair, redness and itchiness of the scalp and even a foul smell.

5 tips to tackle scalp problems in spring

1.Use a light shampoo

Our skin becomes fragile and sensitive during seasonal changes – our scalp is no exception. You should change your shampoo and hair care products accordingly to cater for your scalp needs and promote healthy hair growth.

For example, nourishing shampoo is the best choice in winter, but you should change it to fresh, silicone-free shampoo with frizz control in spring and summer. Silicone-free shampoo is less irritating to your hair and scalp, gives you soft, refreshed hair with more volume, and is less likely to clog your hair follicles, which make it a perfect choice for spring. Still, remember to rinse off the shampoo thoroughly to prevent chemical substances from accumulating on your scalp.

2.Use conditioner in the right way

Conditioner can nourish, moisturise and smooth your hair during dry weather, but it’s not a good idea to use it every day in humid spring. Excessive use of conditioner will hinder the nutrient absorption of hair, and if you don’t rinse it off thoroughly or wrongly apply it to the scalp, it can clog your hair follicles and disrupt the normal sebum and sweat secretion, leading to hair loss. If necessary, you can apply a moderate amount to the hair ends to reduce split ends.

3.Blow-dry your hair until 70% dry

Never air-dry your hair from when it’s soaking wet as the hair cuticles will become fragile and unable to lay flat against the hair shaft, leading to frizzy hair. Plus, letting your scalp stay wet during damp weather can make dust and dirt stick to your hair more easily and increase the chances of bacterial growth, which can lead to an unpleasant smell on your scalp.

The correct way to blow-dry your hair is to first use a towel to gently blot your wet hair to avoid damaging the cuticles. Then, hold a hair dryer about 20-30 cm away from your hair to avoid overheating it. Starting from the hair roots, move the dryer in a circular motion to dry your hair until it is about 70% dry.

4.Let your scalp cool down

Many people go straight to bed after blow-drying their hair, but this can make things worse. After blow-drying your hair, your scalp can still be pretty warm. If you lay your head on a pillow right away, the lack of air circulation can cause your scalp to become stuffy, leading to an oily and flat look. You may switch to the cool setting on your hair dryer to cool down your scalp for 30 seconds. This can prevent excessive sebum secretion and strengthen your hair roots, adding more volume to your locks.

5.Use a hair straightener

A hair straightener comes in handy during damp weather as it can smooth your frizzy hair immediately with moderate heat. If you worry that heat may damage your hair, you can apply hair oil beforehand to create a protective barrier on your hair strands.
