Due to the weather patterns created by La Nina, this winter is predicted to produce cooler temperatures and more snow than the Chicago area is used to. Whatever the cause of our bone-chilling winters, our nails, skin, and hair are moisture-starved and prone to damage. Since a vacation to a humidity-rich tropical island isn’t feasible for most people, the only reasonable alternative is to find ways to prevent the chapped skin and from split ends from which we often suffer. While there are a host of solutions your Derick dermatologist may recommend to combat dry skin, it may be less intuitive to ask about solutions to protect your hair. Before the harsh Chicago winters begin to affect your blow-out, use the three tips below to prevent damaged winter hair.
If your go-to remedies don’t work for you this winter, let Derick Dermatology come to your rescue. They may not have the power to change the weather, but they have over fifteen skilled professionals who are ready to help you be more comfortable in your own skin, no matter what the temperature. Contact our offices in Arlington Heights, Barrington, Crystal Lake, or Elgin to schedule an appointment with one of our dermatologists.
