Static

• Try shampoos that don't contain harsh chemicals.
• Serums are great, but be careful not to use too much, they can weigh hair down.
• Lightly spritz a bit of hairspray to tame any unwanted frizz.

Dehydration

• Rinse your hair with cold water to help lock in your moisture.
• Use leave-in moisturizers or conditioners.
• Make time for weekly moisture treatments.
• Try to limit the amount of times you use mechanical styling tools like curling and straightening irons.

Cold weather

• Make sure you don't leave the house with damp or wet hair. Not only will you run the risk of getting a nasty cold, but you'll also increase your chances of getting some unwanted hair breakage.
• Wear a scarf or hat to protect your hair from the wind.
