Girls, remember, you can't walk without a hat in winter! Hair follicles are very sensitive to cold, and if they are constantly frozen, it can result in hair loss. So do not be lazy to pick up a cool hat and remember our tips that will solve this winter problem, writes Rambler.
1. Always dry your hair well
If the hair remains even a little damp, the hair will take on the shape of a hat. It is advisable to wash your hair two hours before leaving (yes, this is difficult to do when you need to be at work at 9). Besides, a walk with wet hair in cold weather will not lead to anything good.
2. Turn on cold air for the last 2 minutes of drying.
The hair must be cooled at the end of drying: they will be less confused, the volume will last longer, and the cap will no longer be able to fundamentally harm the styling.
3. Use less styling products.
If possible, keep the amount of gel or varnish to a minimum. First, if the styler does not dry out, you will get the same result as with wet hair. Secondly, the gel in the hair + cap = dirty hair (they can be clean, but they will look sloppy). Stylists advise to use sprays for the volume with a heat-protective effect: after them the hair will not stick together.

4. Buy a quality comb
If you take off your hat and turn into a dandelion, then it's time to look at your comb. Is it metallic or plastic? Throw away and change to a model of antistatic materials (for example, silicone).
5. Remember that rose oil is a natural antistatic
Apply a drop of rose oil to the comb (from any material) - and the hair will no longer electrify.
6. Spray antistatic cap
Another way to resist the “flying” hair is to sprinkle the cap with the usual antistatic for clothes on the inside.
7. Wear caps only from natural materials.
It is important that the yarn from which the cap is knitted is not barbed and does not contain more than 30% artificial fibers. Otherwise, the scalp will constantly sweat (if the hat is fur, then look at the lining material).
8. Correctly wear a hat.
Experts believe that you should wear a hat like this: pull it over your head, as if moving it backwards from your forehead, then your hair will fall under the cap in one direction.
9. Do not choose tight caps.
Do not buy tight hats: they ugly slide off the head and spoil the hair. Pay attention to too tight gum, which not only ugly deform the hair, but also leave a mark on the forehead.
10. Remove headgear in transport
In transport, the head will become hot, the skin will begin to sweat, and this will definitely have a negative effect on styling.
11. Prefer hairstyles without volume at the roots
In the cold season, do hairstyles, in which the volume is distributed not at the roots, but at the tips. For example, you can curl your hair to the middle of the length. Another option is to remove the volume completely and perfectly straighten the hair.

12. Collect long hair in a bun
For long hair owners, we advise you to make a bundle (you can be low so that the cap is pulled over your head), and then indoors dissolve them and shake them a little. You will get soft waves and natural volume.
If you have bangs, stylists recommend raising it at the roots, then throw it back up and gently put on the cap (and the bang should be dried on 100% - see paragraph 1).
13. Do a head massage
If styling without volume is not your option, then do the following: after removing the cap, lower the head down, gently massage the hair at the roots for 30 seconds (with movements from the back of the head to the forehead). Such a simple massage will return the volume of hair and eliminate the creases of hair that appeared from behind the cap.
14. Weave braids
Winter - time to make beautiful hairstyles with braids. They do not wrinkle under the cap and look very romantic. There are many educational videos on the Internet that explain quite clearly how to braid a beautiful braid.
15. Look for an alternative to the cap
Last and perhaps the most banal advice: gently cover your head with a warm scarf. The head will not be cold, and the hairstyle will remain in its original form. However, in severe frosts, such an alternative to the cap will not save.
Bandages, headphones and berets can also be included here: the styling will remain, but there is a risk of freezing.
