5 Nourishing Winter Haircare Buys, Plus WIN a Herbal Essences Winter Haircare Pack!
Fri, 15 June 2012 10:56AM
Let’s face it, this time of year brings about a case of the winter hair doldrums. Your hair is probably tied up in a low pony or top knot, (although bet your bottom dollar that they’re of the fashion-forward variety. Good one, Primpettes), but you wish that you could let your locks flow free without worrying about it’s current dry, lacklustre state.
In order to get us all out of our winter hair rut, I spoke to Joico’s Visionary Director Gianni Scumaci, in town to discuss the new Structure range (more on that soon). I drilled Gianni on caring for our hair in winter and his go-to product, plus I’ve also added a few of my favourites for braving the cold front, so you can pull off that beanie and step out with the most luscious, hydrated hair. Oh, and there’s also a winter haircare prize pack giveaway, but I’ll get to that soon. Promise.
Gianni says that winter can typically alter the texture of our hair and depending on the chilly weather outside and days spent rugged up next to the heater, it can also leave it feeling dry, so it’s important to use the right products to rehydrate. Along with using a moisturising shampoo and conditioner suited to your individual needs, Gianni recommends using a weekly reconstructive treatment, essential for keeping your hair hydrated and to repair any existing damage.
Joico K-PAK RevitaLuxe Bio Advanced Restorative Treatment, $28.95, 1300 764 437
Gianni refers to this baby as his go-to Joico product for high intensity nourishment. He says that it provides “immediate results” in strengthening your hair, leaving it feeling and looking both shinier and healthier. If you have coloured hair and experience fading, which is traditionally due to cold winter winds where ends can become dry and brittle, this product would be ideal, as it restores and maintains the lustre of your locks.
And here are a few of my other favourites …
Original & Mineral Seven Day Miracle, $31.95, 1300 724 635
I mentioned a few weeks ago that I was introduced to this gem from the fabulous team over at Atlantis Hair, and now I can’t live without it. Infused with a nourishing blend of macadamia seed oil and certified organic argan oil, use it weekly as a treatment mask to restore shine and vitality to your locks, leaving them feeling silky smooth and soft. And in case you missed it, for a quick tip and an ultra-luxurious treatment, apply the mask and wrap your hair in a hot towel before rinsing off.
Pantene Pro-V Intensive Damage Repair Oil Treatment, $9.99, 1800 028 280
Oils have been used as a hair treatment for centuries, but it hasn’t been until recently that formulations became lighter as to not weigh the hair down, and ideal to use on fine hair too, without making it look and/or feel oily. Pantene’s first oil offering, the Intensive Damage Repair Oil, is a leave-in treatment designed to banish split ends and dry hair, as well as protect your strands from damage caused by heat styling and other environmental factors. I was hesitant to use it at first, because my hair is on the oily side, but I was quickly converted. My tip: For those with fine, or oily hair (or both, like me), use a small drop into the palm of your hand and spread over the mid-lengths and ends for a smooth, shiny finish.
Wella Pro Series Moisture Treatment, $10.99, 1800 028 280
Dry hair equals brittle and lacklustre strands. Wella’s new Pro Series Moisture Treatment is designed to get moisture right to the hair cuticle, smoothing the hair and leaving it tangle-free and super-shiny. You know that feeling when you apply a hair treatment and when you rinse it out, it feels silky-soft? That’s how my hair felt after using this, even after I had blow-dried it, leaving it frizz-free and sleek.
Clairol Herbal Essences Long Term Relationship Treatment Mask, $5.99, from supermarkets
If you’re a fan of sweet-smelling hair treatments and Herbal Essences products in general, then this fruity berry number is for you. It works to nourish and protect each strand of hair with a silk and raspberry infused formula, to strengthen your hair while preventing breakage. Plus at $5.99, all you need to do is skip your morning banana bread and it’s yours.
And since we’re on the topic of Herbal Essences, we have 10 winter prize packs to give away to lucky PRIMPED readers! Each of the ranges are inspired by a tropical getaway, guaranteed to transport you to a warmer climate, fruity cocktail in hand. The prize packs are valued at $60 each, and are jam-packed with the following:
- Herbal Essences Shampoo and Conditioner
- The Tousle Me Softly Styling Range, with Tousle Me Softly Spray Gel, Tousle Me Softly Mousse and Tousle Me Softly Hairspray
- None of your Frizzness Serum
- Set Me Up Supersize Hairspray
Tell me, Primpettes, do you use a hair mask once a week?
If so, has it made a difference in your hair during the winter weather?
Do you have a favourite?

Having a young child doesn’t leave me much time for primping with my hair. Now that he is not so young this winter, with some great products i might be able to do something with it.

Ill health and hospital stays have taken their toll.
A little indulgence for my hair will surely show results and have me competing with Rapunzel.

Winter has hit hard- flaky skin, fuzzy hair, chapped lips galore. As a poor uni student I can only sit tight until spring comes. Help!

‘Crunch’ says my brittle frayed ends, tortured since summer. Ive doused them in oil to regain lustre through the dry season, though boring and dull they’d love some style!

Dry wintery breeze playing with my limp strands, knotting my coarse brittle ends. They scream for attention, desiring radiance, life, to bounce with each step…

Always busy with 2 kids. It’s not always easy to find time for me. Help! I need some Herbal Essence TLC!
Posted by: Karen Carland // Fri, 15 June 2012 10:16pm
I previously had my hair bleached at the ends in summer to match the season. That was a very bad choice as the bleach processed / fried my hair, it became so outta control with constant knotting and tangles from the split ends. So I finally decided to give my hair the big CHOP… the hairdresser absolutely butchered my hair. Now the split ends have reappeared even though I abstained from using any heat to style my hair and I really need a good mask at the moment.

Unfortunately in a “long term relationship” with thin, curly hair. My hair needs to say “Hello Hydration”"set me up” give me some “smooth loving”

my hair is dry from the winter weather and constant heat styling and working 12 hour days means I don’t have the time to treat my hair at a salon

Its looking very dull
Posted by: Tony L // Sun, 24 June 2012 11:59pm
Its dry, split end and always oily. I’ll take whatever I can get to save my hair and make it look at least half decent.

My hair is on the dry side from being coloured and needs a little attention before it gets any worse!
Posted by: Sophie Wang // Wed, 4 July 2012 04:20pm
Dry and porous, I haven’t been paying much attention to my hair lately. Winter isn’t helping, so a rescue remedy is required!

I am growing out and old perm and so my hair is abit of a mess and i want it to get longer and then perhaps get another spiral perm before summer so i want it to get in good condition before i go ahead and make this leap once again.

In winter I find myself using a hair dryer so much more. This causes my hair to feel dry and a bit lifeless between blow dries.

These winter months bring so much dryness and frizziness into my hair
Posted by: Kerry Cassells-Noble // Mon, 20 August 2012 01:57pm
I have very curly hair and it needs lots of conditioner to stay fly-away free, so any of the herbal essence range would be more than Perfect!!!!

Because I have been hibernating and not getting out much so my hair has been ignored a bit in the winter months
