Spring is a Season of Renewal
Spring is a season of renewal, a time when nature blooms with vibrant colors, and the days become longer and brighter. With the arrival of spring, many of us feel inspired to refresh various aspects of our lives, from our wardrobes to our homes. However, one area often overlooked during this period of reinvention is our hair. Your hairstyle and haircare routine deserve the same attention and rejuvenation as your closet or skincare regimen. Here’s why updating your hairstyle and haircare routine is essential before spring—and how you can achieve it with products from top brands like Kevin Murphy, Aveda, and Eleven Australia.
Why Refreshing Your Hair Before Spring Matters
- Seasonal Hair Needs: Each season brings its own set of challenges for hair. Winter often leaves hair dry, brittle, and in need of hydration due to cold weather and indoor heating. Spring is the perfect time to restore moisture, repair damage, and prepare your hair for warmer, sunnier days.
- Symbolic Renewal: Just as spring symbolizes growth and new beginnings, refreshing your hairstyle can boost your confidence and give you a sense of renewal. A new cut, color, or style can reinvigorate your look and mindset.
- Hair Health Reset: Transitioning from winter to spring is the perfect time to focus on hair health. Regular trims, hydrating treatments, and updated care routines can help you strengthen your hair and achieve that healthy springtime glow.
Updating Your Hairstyle for Spring
1. Consider a Fresh Cut
Spring is a great time to experiment with a lighter, more carefree hairstyle. Winter can lead to split ends and dryness, so a trim or a more drastic haircut can remove the damaged ends and rejuvenate your look. Popular spring styles include layered bobs, curtain bangs, or long, tousled layers for a soft and fresh appearance.
2. Brighten Your Color
If you color your hair, consider incorporating lighter or warmer tones for a fresh spring vibe. Balayage, soft highlights, or pastel hues are great options to add dimension and reflect the brightness of the season. Aveda offers a wide range of plant-based hair color products that are gentle on your hair and the environment, making it a great option for achieving your desired spring color.
Revamping Your Haircare Routine
Healthy hair starts with the right haircare routine. Before spring arrives, assess your current routine and make adjustments to address winter damage and prepare for the changing weather. Here are some essential tips and products to consider for your spring haircare refresh:
1. Hydration is Key
Winter weather can strip your hair of moisture, leaving it dry and brittle. To combat this, incorporate deeply hydrating products into your regimen. Kevin Murphy’s Hydrate-Me Wash and Hydrate-Me Rinse are excellent options for restoring moisture and achieving silky, nourished hair.
2. Repair Winter Damage
Address winter damage with targeted treatments. Kevin Murphy’s Repair-Me Masque is a powerful treatment infused with enzymes and proteins that strengthen and repair damaged hair. Use it weekly for maximum results.
3. Protect Against Spring Sun
As the sun becomes stronger in spring, UV protection becomes essential for maintaining hair health. Aveda’s Sun Care Protective Hair Veil is a lightweight, water-resistant mist that provides UV protection while keeping hair hydrated and shiny.
4. Embrace Lightweight Styling
Warmer weather calls for lighter, more breathable styling products. Eleven Australia’s I Want Body Volume Spray is perfect for creating lightweight volume and texture without weighing your hair down. It’s ideal for achieving effortless spring styles like beach waves or tousled layers.
Sustainable Haircare: A Spring Philosophy
Spring is not just about refreshing your look—it’s also a time to embrace sustainability and make environmentally conscious choices. Brands like Kevin Murphy, Aveda, and Eleven Australia are committed to sustainable practices, from using natural and cruelty-free ingredients to minimizing their environmental impact.

Tips for a Successful Spring Hair Refresh
- Book a Consultation: If you’re looking to make a significant change, such as a new haircut or color, consult with one of our professionals. They can assess your hair type and recommend styles and treatments tailored to your needs.
- Schedule Regular Trims: Even if you’re not making a drastic change, regular trims every 6-8 weeks are crucial for maintaining healthy hair and preventing split ends.
- Don’t Neglect the Scalp: A healthy scalp is the foundation for healthy hair. Use a scalp scrub, like Eleven Australia’s Deep Clean Scalp Scrub, to remove buildup and promote a clean, balanced scalp environment.
- Transition Gradually: If you’re introducing new products into your routine, do so gradually to avoid overwhelming your hair or scalp.
Let Your Hair Bloom This Spring
Spring is a season of change and new beginnings—why not let your hair reflect that spirit of renewal? By refreshing your hairstyle and updating your haircare routine, you can step into spring with confidence, radiance, and vitality. Whether you’re hydrating dry winter hair, experimenting with a fresh cut or color, or incorporating sustainable products from Kevin Murphy, Aveda, or Eleven Australia, your hair deserves the same care and attention you give to other aspects of your life.
This spring, let your hair bloom as beautifully as the world around you. It’s not just a refresh—it’s an investment in your self-confidence and well-being.
