When it comes to hair, the colder the weather, the more difficult it becomes to keep it proper and healthy. There are several hair care products that everyone uses to maintain quality. Additionally, some hair care products can cause further damage to hair if not used properly. This is because when there is a dip in humidity and oil production, the hair becomes dry and brittle resulting in hair fall problems.
