Haircare Essentials for Transitioning from Winter to Spring in Melbourne

As the seasons change in Melbourne, so do our hair concerns. The shift from winter to spring can wreak havoc on your locks – think moisture-deprived strands, frizz from unpredictable weather, and sensitive scalps that just won’t quit. With dry indoor heat giving way to breezy outdoor winds, your hair might be feeling the toll, looking lacklustre and in desperate need of hydration and care.

But don’t worry, the solution is simpler than you think. The transition from winter to spring doesn’t have to be a nightmare for your hair. It’s all about finding the right products to protect, nourish, and revive your strands. Whether you need to soothe an irritated scalp, tame flyaways, or add a boost of shine, updating your haircare routine with targeted ingredients can make all the difference.

The key is in the ingredients: is your hair craving a lightweight serum or does it need a more intense oil? How do you balance moisture without weighing your hair down as the weather warms up? From flaky scalps to frizz-prone ends, we’ve tried and tested the best solutions to ensure your hair makes a smooth transition into the new season.

Ahead, discover our favourite products to help your hair adapt and thrive as we leave the cold behind and embrace the beauty of spring.

If you …need a hydration hit

Hair feeling like straw? It’s common! Your hair is parched and prone to damage during winter, thanks to chilly winds outdoors and moisture-sucking heating indoors.

To inject some hydration back into your locks, look for moisture-inducing shampoos and conditioners that keep your hair healthy and shiny (without weighing it down). Choose products that are sulphate-free and enriched with nourishing ingredients like avocado oil and aloe vera.

If you …need to relive a flaky, itchy scalp

Your scalp can become itchy and flaky during the colder months, just like the skin on our bodies. To combat that tight, icky feeling, opt for products specifically formulated to control flakiness, remove excess oil and calm irritation.

If you … need to fight frizz and split ends

If you're aiming for a shiny, static-free mane (and who isn't!?), consider adding an oil or serum to your hair care routine. Both nourish and smooth frizz-prone hair – but what’s the difference and which is right for you?

Serums create a protective layer over the hair fibres, making your locks feel softer and look shinier—perfect for applying before using heat styling tools. Hair oils, on the other hand, penetrate the hair shaft to improve its overall condition.

If you … need to make it through one more day without a wash!

Achieving fresh, healthy-looking hair on the go is a challenge we all know. That's why finding a reliable dry shampoo is a must—one that zaps oil, eliminates odours and adds volume. Bonus points if it also doubles as a styling product!
