Last updated by New England Associates\u00ae May, 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spring is thought to be a time of new beginnings. Even though it doesn&#8217;t always feel like it this year, we are so deep into Spring 2026 with Summer coming up really really soon. So you may want to think about how these changing seasons affect your hair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are many elemental factors that play into how healthy your hair is. These can determine how dry or brittle your hair becomes. While your daily routine might stay the same, your hair and scalp face entirely different environmental challenges as the months change. Here is what to watch out for throughout the year:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Summer:<\/strong> Intense UV rays can degrade the hair&#8217;s protein structure, while chlorine and saltwater strip away natural oils, leaving it dry and frizzy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Autumn:<\/strong> As humidity drops, the sudden transition to dry air can make hair brittle and more prone to static and breakage.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Winter:<\/strong> Cold outdoor air combined with dry indoor heating saps moisture from the hair and scalp, often leading to a dry, itchy scalp and dull strands.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Spring:<\/strong> As the weather warms up, fluctuating humidity levels and seasonal allergies can impact the scalp&#8217;s natural balance, requiring a shift in your hair care routine.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Understanding how these changes impact your specific hair type is the first step in preventing seasonal thinning or damage. Adjusting your routine with the right protective steps can make all the difference. You can read about them at <a href=\"http:\/\/hairstart.blogspot.com\/2018\/04\/understanding-how-different-seasons.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/hairstart.blogspot.com\/2018\/04\/understanding-how-different-seasons.html<\/a> and contact us for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newenglandassociates.com\/wordpress\/what-to-expect-during-your-consultation-at-new-england-associates\/\">free consultation<\/a> to find out if your hair is going through a seasonal change or if any hair loss you&#8217;re going through is something bigger than a change of the seasons.
