Seasonal Hair Care: How Edmonton’s Climate Affects Your Hair

Volume Salons • October 22, 2024

A great hair day can significantly enhance our mood, making us feel more confident and beautiful. However, maintaining those brilliant tresses we love can be quite a challenge, especially when dealing with the varying weather conditions in Edmonton. From the unbearably dry winters to the humid summer days, Edmonton’s climate drastically impacts the health and condition of our hair. Fortunately, at Volume Salons, we specialize in offering solutions that ensure your hair remains as vibrant and radiant as the changing seasons of Edmonton.


Understanding Edmonton’s Climate Impact on Hair


Edmonton's climate is characterized by distinct seasons, each influencing your hair differently. Dry winters can lead to brittle, static-ridden hair, while humid summers can cause frizz and color fading. The key to managing these contrasting effects lies in understanding how they impact your hair and tailoring your hair care regimen accordingly.


Hair Woes in Winter


Winter in Edmonton is notoriously cold and dry, which can leave your hair feeling just the same. The lack of moisture in the air can lead to dry, brittle strands and increased static. This is because the absence of humidity allows for the build-up of negatively charged electrons in your hair, causing it to stand on end - the infamous winter frizz.


Preemptive Winter Hair Care


At Volume Salons, we advise fortifying your hair with deep moisturizing treatments to combat winter dryness. Indulge your hair with our top-notch treatments like Olaplex, Keratin, and Kerastase. These scientifically designed treatments restore and fortify your hair's natural bonds, providing a gleaming, salon-fresh look during the harshest winter months.


Your Transition from Winter to Spring


As you bid farewell to winter, your hair still requires attention. The transition period can be tough on your hair, and pre-spring care can prepare your locks for the lusher, damp climate ahead. We recommend a trim to get rid of winter-induced split ends and a nourishing hair treatment to restore moisture and shine.


Summer Hair Hazards


Edmonton’s summers, while relatively short, bring about drastic changes. From increased UV exposure causing color fade and damage to humidity triggering frizz, your hair faces many challenges.


Guarding your Locks in Summer


To protect your hair from the summer sun, consider our top-quality Schwarzkopf Color Treatments. These treatments not only infuse vibrancy and radiance into your hair but also provide an effective shield against harsh UV rays. Furthermore, consider our expert styling treatments like permanents and extensions to keep your hair fabulously frizz-free.


Cooling Down: Autumn Hair Care


Fall in Edmonton heralds a season of intense color changes, both in nature and potentially for your hair. As the climate becomes less humid and the days shorter, it's a perfect time to embrace a new, vibrant hair color.


Fall Into a New Hue


Experience personalized beauty with our custom hair color services at Volume Salons. Our expert stylists work closely with you to create a unique and flattering shade that perfectly complements your autumn wardrobe, skin tone, and lifestyle for an effortlessly stunning transformation.


Year-Round Care


Edmonton's ever-changing climate makes consistent hair care a challenge. Nevertheless, with a few tweaks in your routine and the help of Volume Salon's professional services, you can enjoy gorgeous hair throughout the seasons. Your journey to flawless, healthy hair is just an appointment away at Volume Salons.
