Seasonal Beauty Routines for the UK Climate

The weather of the United Kingdom is pretty unpredictable. People often laugh about needing to carry sunglasses and an umbrella at the time. The weather is not good for the hair and skin. The truth is, your beauty routine should change. What works for you in the summer will not work in the winter. At Salima Salon, we see how the seasons affect our clients. Your skin and hair need things at different times of the year.

Spring: The Great Reset:

Shedding Winter Dullness:

In the winter time our skin gets dry and dead skin cells start to pile up. This makes our skin look dull and grey. When spring comes around it is a time to get rid of those dead skin cells, with some gentle exfoliation. At Salima Salon, we recommend using lighter serums that have vitamins in them to get rid of the dead cells and make new ones.

Spring Cleaning for Your Hair:

Your hair has probably been stuck under hats and scratched by big scarves for a while now. When spring comes, it is a time to get a seasonal trim to help stop split ends from going up your hair.

Autumn: Repair and Preparation:

Reversing Summer Damage:

In autumns, one should look for things that have Vitamin C and Niacinamide in them. These things can help make the skin tone brighter and more even.

When it comes to hair autumn is the time for something called the Bond Builder. At Salima Salon, they have treatments like Olaplex that reconnect the broken protein chains.

Autumnal Tones:

When autumn comes around, the colors we like to wear and have in our hair change. We start to like deeper colours, which can be achieved from Salima Salon.

Winter: Survival and Comfort:

The "Barrier" Strategy:

In the winter time the skins natural barrier is under attack all the time. You can use really thick creams that keep the wind out. These things help your skin get water. They also help your skin keep that water.

Static Hair and Hat Hair:

Woollen hats can cause some problems. The best thing to do is wear a hat that has a silk lining if you can. If you do not have a silk-lined hat you can try putting a bit of hair oil on your hands and then smoothing it over your hair after you take your hat off. This helps get rid of the electricity, in your woollen hat. Woollen hats can be a pain but using a bit of hair oil can make a big difference.

Conclusion:

The weather in the United Kingdom can be tough to deal with. It also makes our beauty routines more fun. At Salima Salon, we want to give you a great experience that you can see and feel. Contact us now to schedule your seasonal consultation at Salima Salon.
