1. Choose a Shampoo, Conditioner & Mask for Damaged Hair

As amazing as a steaming hot shower is during cold winter days, this is doing more damage than good. Hot water will strip your hair of its natural oils and cause it to become drier than before. So, take it down a notch and try a lukewarm shower instead.
