In winter, hair changes – just like skin. Dry air, cold, and hats can make hair flat, frizzy, and lifeless. But with the right routine and technique, you can actually give your hair volume, shine, and moisture – without it feeling heavy.
Here we share our best tips for full, airy hair year-round, specially adapted for Nordic climates.
1. Start with the scalp – the Scalp Brush is key
The foundation for healthy and full hair begins with the scalp. A Scalp Brush stimulates blood circulation, removes product residue, and helps shampoo distribute evenly.
Massage gently in circular motions when shampooing – it increases nutrient supply to the hair follicles, making hair grow stronger and healthier.
👉 Use with Velvet Volume Shampoo Bar or the Växa series to optimize the effect.
2. Try our double shampooing technique
One of the most popular routines among our customers – and something hairdressers have long done in salons – is double shampooing.
Here's how to do it for the best results:
-
First shampoo: Dissolves dirt, oils, and styling residues. Rinse thoroughly.
-
Second shampoo: Lather up again, but let the rich foam stay in your hair.
-
While the foam works: Draw the conditioner bar over the lengths – it provides intensive care without weighing hair down.
-
Leave on for 2 minutes. Then rinse thoroughly.
The result? Clean, airy hair with natural volume and shine – right after the first time.
3. Give the ends extra love
After rinsing, you can glide the conditioner bar over the ends and work a little extra conditioner into richly wet hair, especially the ends.
Finish with a few drops of organic argan oil – it seals the hair shaft and locks in moisture, keeping hair soft and shiny for longer.
This step makes a huge difference in winter, when hair otherwise easily becomes coarse or static.
Still static?

4. Hairdresser's tips for winter volume
-
Avoid overly hot water – it dries out the scalp.
-
Let hair air dry partially before blow-drying to retain moisture.
-
Choose shampoo and conditioner with natural, moisture-binding ingredients like blueberry extract and plant proteins.
-
Wash more often with a mild formula rather than rarely with a strong shampoo.
Summary – natural volume year-roundWith the right technique, you can easily get healthy, airy, and shiny hair even in cold climates:
