The fall season brings with it not only cool days, but also sudden weather changes and wind: all events that can be detrimental to a man's hair. Wind tends to dry out hair, break hair and make it frizzy, while temperature changes, between heated environments and cold air, can further damage it. Here's how to take care of your hair during these unpredictable days.
WIND PROTECTION: HOW TO AVOID BREAKAGE DAMAGE
Wind is one of the most aggressive natural forces for hair, especially if the hair is medium to long. It can cause knots, break ends and make the hair look messy.
Useful tips:
-
Hats and caps
In addition to being a stylish accessory, a woolen hat or cap protects hair from the wind. Choose soft, breathable materials to avoid irritation or “electric” effect on hair.
-
Gently detangle
If the wind has done its damage and your hair is full of knots, use a wide-toothed comb to detangle it, starting at the ends and going up toward the roots. This will reduce the risk of breaking them. To further improve combability, after cleansing your hair, apply our Nourishing Restorative Butter to the ends and then rinse: this step will make your hair softer and stronger, reducing the risk that it may break.

The right fixative
A few sprays of products with fixing properties can help keep your hair looking neat even on the windiest days. Avoid products that are too harsh, however, as they may dry out the hair: Super Hold Fixing Spray helps keep the hair in place both after applying a styling product and when used alone.
TEMPERATURE SWINGS: ADAPTING YOUR ROUTINE
Fall is a season of sudden changes. One moment it's hot and the next it's cold, the sun is shining and then it starts raining. These temperature changes can stress the hair fibers and make the hair more fragile.
Helpful tips:
-
Adapt your cleansing products
If the day is cooler, opt for a more nourishing product, such as Nourishing Restorative Shampoo. If, on the other hand, it is warmer and more humid, choose light formulas that do not weigh hair down (Delicate Cleansing Fluid).

Reduce the frequency of washing
In cold and windy weather, hair can become dry and brittle. Washing hair too frequently can strip the scalp of natural oils needed to protect it. Reduce the frequency of washes to 2-3 times a week to maintain a proper balance between cleanliness and natural hydration.
