The Ultimate Spring Hair Care Guide

Looking to the seasons often brings ample inspiration when it comes to nourishing yourself, including taking care of your hair. Spring carries with it brighter days, gentle showers, and blooming colour.

This might reflect your hair’s needs, such as boosting shine, providing it with light moisture, and reliably protecting new colours. Several of our ranges offer all that’s necessary for honing in on a lightweight, spring-ready routine and achieving your spring hair care goals.

Why Spring Hair Care Is Different

As the seasons shift, so do the needs of our hair. Spring weather and changes in lifestyle can impact how your hair feels and looks. That’s why we’ve narrowed it down to three main components that make up a holistic picture of spring hair care: hydration, shine, and colour protection.

Hydration & Shine

Warmer weather and more frequent exposure to the sun can lead to drynessand a lack of moisture in your hair. This leads to strands that feel dull or rough. That said, your hair doesn’t require as thick of products as it does in winter.

Springtime nourishment should feel hydrating, but not to the point that it weighs your hair down. A move toward light textures is ideal.

Colour Protection

Spring also inspires many people to refresh or change their hair colour. This means colour protectionis essential to keeping your hair feeling and looking healthy throughout the season. It’s also vital in order to keep your colour as vibrant for as long as possible.

UV rays, humidity, and frequent hairwashing can lead to fading, and this may show up more noticeably in lighter hair shades.

How to Support Hair Hydration and Shine in Spring

With spring in the air, it’s best to switch from heavy winter textures to lighter formulas. Lightweight nourishment will still support moisture levels in your hair and increase shine without making your strands feel heavy or greasy. Davines’ OI family is infused with roucou oil, which softens and smooths all hair types and boosts luminosity. Here’s how you can incorporate spring hair hydration into your routine with OI:

OI Shampoo: A gentle, everyday cleanser for all hair types.
OI Conditioner: Perfect for nourishing lengths and creating a smooth finish.
OI Milk: A lightweight, daily hydrator that protects and detangles.
OI Oil: A glossy styling staple for adding shine and protecting from humidity.
OI Soufflé: Liquid to foam styler that adds flexible, soft body.

How can I hydrate my hair in spring without weighing it down?

It’s a fine line balancing a lightweight hair routine with products that truly nourish your hair. It’s best to select formulas with hydrating ingredientsthat work with your hair type and won’t weigh it down. For fine or thin hair, lightweight oilsare necessary and can be applied more sparingly. For thicker, coarser hair or curls and coils, thicker formulasand more frequent use are often best. Find the right option for you, below.

How to Protect Coloured Hair in Spring

Another important part of spring hair care is protecting your colour. This ensures you can enjoy nuances that feel authentic to you for far longer. The right products won’t only protect your colour, but they’ll support softer, shinier strands too, and neatly fit into your daily routine.

With more sun, UV exposure, and frequent washing, you may find your colour fading faster. Our answer to this is There Must Be an Angel. It’s a professional line dedicated to repairing and protecting coloured and lightened hair. It holds two complementary families: Beautiful Thingsand Heart of Glass—the former is made for all cosmetic colours, and the latter is fit for lighter blonde tones. We’ll delve into the best options for your hair needs up ahead.

How do I keep my hair colour vibrant during spring?

Maintaining hair vibrancy during spring is done through adjusting your routine and incorporating products that keep the colour protected and bright. You might be wondering, why does colour fade faster this season? Factors more prevalent in spring and summer, such as heat, sun exposure, changes in air moisture, and your own personal lifestyle, like using heated toolsmore frequently or washing your hair more often, lead to cosmetic colours losing their vibrancy more quickly.

We’ve curated options for spring blonde maintenance, as well as formulas suitable for all cosmetic colours, with the help of There Must Be an Angel. These products are musts for spring hair care routines as they provide protection, illumination, and softness for coloured hair.
