December is all about celebrations, from office get-togethers to New Year’s Eve glittering parties. With so many events to look forward to, it’s time to give your hair a pre-holiday glow up. Whether it’s a new haircut, a colour update, or a nourishing treatment, a well-timed salon visit ensures your hair looks its best for every festive moment.
Why December Is the Perfect Time for a Hair Refresh
Winter can be tough on hair. Cold winds, dry indoor heating, and fluctuating temperatures strip moisture, leaving hair dull, brittle, and frizzy. A professional cut, colour, or treatment doesn’t just enhance your look, it restores health, shine, and manageability, helping you feel confident throughout the season.
Holiday Haircuts That Make an Impact
A fresh haircut instantly elevates your style! What to choose? A sleek bob or a textured lob are popular choices for December because they look polished with minimal effort. Longer hair benefits from subtle layers and face-framing pieces, adding movement and softness that look stunning. Even a trim to remove dry ends and reshape layers can transform your hair, making it healthier and easier to style for every holiday event. Bonus points if you’re flying down to the tropics after, to minimize split ends.
Winter Hair Colour Trends
December is the month for rich, glossy tones that complement the winter season. Popular shades include molten brunette, warm auburn, champagne blonde, and colour melting. Blond clients often refresh with a toner to eliminate brassy tones, while brunettes enhance depth and shine with subtle highlights or a gloss. A well-chosen colour update, chosen with the help of our amazing hair colourist at Pure, ensures your hair looks vibrant in every party shot.
Repair and Hydration Treatments
Healthy hair is beautiful hair. Deep conditioning, bond-repair, and smoothing treatments restore strength and softness, reducing frizz and improving manageability. These treatments are particularly valuable after months of sun, heat styling, and fall weather, leaving your hair ready for holiday styling while adding long-lasting shine. And who doesn’t love that!
At-Home Care for Winter Hair
We’ve said it so many times. Because it’s the truth. Maintaining your look between salon visits is key for superb hair colour. Use a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner formulated for colour-treated or dry hair. Limit washing, use dry shampoo when needed, and always apply a heat protectant before styling. Weekly masks and lightweight oils on the ends help maintain moisture and shine despite Montreal’s dry winter air.
Book Early, Glow Longer
December is one of the busiest months for salons, so booking early ensures you get your preferred appointment and allows time for touch-ups before key events. A well-timed cut, colour, and treatment not only prepare you for the holidays but also carry your hair beautifully into the new year.
