Out of the winter hair slump: how to make your hair shine
Do you know the feeling? You come in from outside, take off your cap and your hair looks like it's been electrified. Or it feels brittle and lifeless after a day in the heated office air. Winter can be tough on our hair - but it doesn't have to be!
In this article, I'll show you how to take the best possible care of your hair in winter.
Nature has amazing things in store that can help your hair through the cold season. The power substances manuka honey, propolis and royal jelly are particularly exciting. They are like a protective shield for your hair against the stresses and strains of winter.
Why does our hair suffer in winter?
Your hair constantly loses moisture in the dry winter air and the heat from the heating, as the cold outside air can store less water and the heating also dries out the room air, while at the same time our sebaceous glands produce less protective lipids in the cold. Add to this the friction of hats and scarves and the constant temperature changes between indoors and outdoors - it's no wonder that the ends rebel and the scalp sometimes starts to itch.
A gift from the bees: The royal jelly solid shampoo with propolis and manuka honey
The clever alternative to liquid shampoo combines three bee treasures: Firstly, there is the precious royal jelly, the bees' "queen's food juice", which provides intensive care for your hair. Then there is propolis, the bees' "putty resin", which provides a soothing feeling on the scalp. The third star in the bunch is manuka honey, which supports your hair with intensive moisture.
But that's not all: nature has even more care treasures in store for your hair. Coconut oil, known for its moisture-retaining properties, and glycerine, a natural moisture magnet, complete the care of your hair. A hint of rosemary rounds off the composition with its invigorating fragrance. The best thing about it? The formula is based exclusively on natural ingredients.
The solid form also means that you can get away with using the same amount for much longer than with liquid shampoo - while a 250 ml bottle is empty after a few weeks, a solid shampoo often lasts for several months with the same frequency of use. You also save on plastic waste - win-win!
BEELIXIR HAIR OIL: Your winter protection elixir
Imagine you could wrap your hair in an invisible, nourishing coat. That's exactly what BEELIXIR HAIR OIL does. The fresh scent of rosemary invigorates your senses, while manuka honey, propolis and argan oil can support your hair care.
Particularly ingenious: you can use the oil in a variety of ways. Use it as an intensive treatment before washing to pamper your hair and scalp. After washing, a few drops will protect your ends from drying out. On particularly harsh winter days, you can also add a little oil to the lengths in between - this will keep your hair supple and shiny.

Your winter hair ritual
Winter is the perfect time to give your hair extra attention. Here are the most important building blocks for your care routine:
Take your time when washing your hair: Lukewarm (not hot!) water is ideal for gentle cleansing. The best way to massage in the royal jelly shampoo is with circular movements - this stimulates blood circulation and relaxes.
BEELIXIR HAIR OIL is your best friend between wash days. A few drops are enough to tame stubborn strands and give your hair suppleness.
Look out for soft materials such as cotton or cashmere for hats. Silk or satin linings are real insider tips against electrostatic charge.
