Locks forward: revive your hair this spring

Winter is wonderful for crisp days and cosy evenings, but it’s rarely kind to your hair. Cold air outdoors and the contrast to heated air indoors zaps natural moisture leaving behind split ends, breakage, and a lack of shine. Plus, the tendency to rely on heat tools more in the colder months, the cycle of dryness and damage accelerates This is why spring is the ideal time for a restorative haircut appointment at a city hair salon Christchurch. Not only does it repair visible winter damage, but it also sets your hair up for strength, vibrancy, and style in the months ahead – making you feel utterly fabulous.
Common signs of winter hair stress include:
· Split ends and frayed tips
· Excessive frizz or static
· Colour fading and lack of vibrancy
· Brittle strands prone to breakage
· A dull, rough texture that is resistant to styling
Why spring is the best time to refresh your hair
Hair naturally grows faster in spring when the hair follicle’s anagen (growth) phase reaches its peak, while longer daylight hours increase Vitamin D production, a vital nutrient for healthy hair growth. This period of great hair growth means any winter damage can be treated without losing any great length; fresh spring hair growth is super healthy, strong and nourished and ready to face the extra stress of summer sun, chlorine, and saltwater. Spring symbolises renewal, and your hair deserves the same seasonal reset.
A timely trim
A Friends and Co professional haircut in Christchurch trims away damage and restores your hair’s natural movement, creating the perfect foundation for spring styling. Removing split ends prevents further breakage, instantly improving shine and softness. A regular haircut does wonders for hair health. Whether you choose a sleek bob, long layers, or a bold new colour like balayage Christchurch, spring is the time to embrace transformation.

A seasonal refresh doesn’t stop at a haircut. As the best hair salon in Christchurch, Friends and Co’s creatives consider your skin tone, eye and hair colour to recommend the most impactful hair colours for you. Subtle highlights or balayage in Christchurch create natural dimension, texture and brightness to perfectly revitalise your hair and match the energy of spring.
