As summer fades, your curls often carry the weight of chlorine, salt, and sun exposure. Fall is the perfect time for a “reset” to prepare your hair for the drier, colder months ahead. Transitioning your routine now will prevent winter breakage and keep your texture resilient.
Clearing the Buildup
Start with a clarifying treatment to remove summer minerals and product buildup. Assess your hair’s porosity and dryness levels—you may need to swap your lightweight summer lotions for richer, more emollient creams as the humidity drops. A seasonal trim is also highly recommended to remove sun-damaged ends.
