Your Go-To Guide for Healthy, Hydrated Hair in Buffalo’s Changing Weather
After a long Buffalo winter filled with wind, snow, and dry indoor heat, your hair may be feeling a little lackluster. As we welcome warmer days, longer sunlight, and spring showers, it’s the perfect time to refresh your hair care routine and restore your strands back to their healthiest, most radiant state.
At Excuria, we believe great hair starts with personalized care—and that includes adjusting for the seasons.
Here are our top spring hair care tips, curated especially for our Buffalo community.
1. Hydrate & Replenish
Winter air can deplete your hair of moisture, leaving it dry, brittle, or prone to static. Spring is the time to reintroduce moisture and nourishment.
Best Practice: Opt for a deep-conditioning treatment at the salon or incorporate a hydrating hair mask into your weekly routine. Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid, shea butter, or argan oil to replenish moisture from root to tip.
Ask your Excuria stylist about our in-salon hydrating treatments or take-home repair masks from our favorite professional brands.
2. Clarify to Start Fresh
Spring means shedding layers—and that includes the product buildup left behind from winter styling. A gentle clarifying treatment helps remove residue, minerals, and impurities without stripping your natural oils.
Best Practice: Use a clarifying shampoo once every two weeks, followed by a nourishing conditioner to maintain balance.
3. Trim Away the Damage
Chances are your ends took a hit this winter. Schedule a spring trim to remove split ends, encourage healthy growth, and refresh your style.
Best Practice: Book a seasonal haircut or dusting trim—even just ½ inch makes a noticeable difference. You’ll leave the chair feeling lighter and healthier.
4. Protect Against Buffalo’s Unpredictable Weather
April showers and gusty spring winds can cause frizz and flyaways. Humidity and temperature changes can also wreak havoc on hair texture.
Best Practice: Use a leave-in conditioner or anti-frizz serum that also offers heat protection. These multi-tasking products keep your hair smooth, tame, and protected—no matter the weather forecast.
5. Add a Pop of Color or Dimension
Spring is a great time to refresh your color! Whether you want to brighten up with highlights, try a buttery blonde, or embrace a soft brunette, seasonal transitions are the perfect time for a change.
Best Practice: Consult with your Excuria colorist about glossing treatments, low-maintenance balayage, or soft pastel hues that fit your style and upkeep preferences.
6. Embrace Scalp Care
Just like your skin, your scalp needs care too—especially after months under hats and in dry heat.
Best Practice: Consider booking a Japanese Head Spa treatment, available starting this May at Excuria! This luxurious scalp-focused experience deeply cleanses, hydrates, and balances the scalp, promoting healthier, shinier hair from the root.
