 So a whole year has passed since we had our first lockdown, and what a roller coaster of emotions that has been!   We started with thinking it was a 3 week break - and we were all for it!.... little did we know! Just like us our hair has been faced with all kinds of changes and the need to adapt to new situations. Lockdown found us dealing with our hair a little less.

Of course the flip-side to this is if you have greasy hair naturally, keeping the sebum glands to behave is nearly impossible, so if you really wanted to be lazy with it but still needed to get on that dreaded zoom call it was a hat or a scarf or a band day.

But how do we winter-proof our hair? - here are a f...
