Seasonal Hair Care Tips for Men in NYC

New York City’s weather changes fast — one month it is freezing with dry winds, the next it is humid and blazing hot. These shifts can take a toll on your hair and scalp if you are not prepared. At Imperial Barbershop NYC, we know that great style starts with healthy hair, which is why our barbers tailor their advice to match the season.

Here is how you can keep your hair looking sharp year-round in the city that never sleeps.


Winter: Fight Dryness and Static

Cold air and indoor heating can dry out both your hair and scalp.

  • Moisturizing shampoo and conditioner help lock in hydration.

  • Avoid super-hot showers, which strip natural oils.

  • Use a small amount of leave-in conditioner to combat static.

  • Book regular trims at Imperial to remove split ends and keep your style neat even under a beanie.


Spring: Refresh and Rebuild

Spring in NYC means unpredictable weather — rain one day, sun the next.

  • Swap heavy winter products for lighter, water-based styling gels.

  • Exfoliate your scalp once a week to remove product buildup.

  • Consider a fresh cut to reset your style after months of hats and hoodies.


Summer: Defend Against Humidity and Sun Damage

NYC summers are hot, sticky, and tough on hair.

  • Use an anti-humidity styling cream or pomade to prevent frizz.

  • Apply a UV-protecting spray if you spend time outdoors.

  • Wash sweat and dirt out daily with a gentle shampoo.

  • Keep it cooler with a shorter style like a fade or buzz cut — our specialty at Imperial Barbershop.


Fall: Strengthen for the Cold Ahead

Autumn is the perfect time to prepare your hair for the harsher months.

  • Switch to a richer conditioner to build strength.

  • Try a warm towel treatment at Imperial to hydrate and relax the scalp.

  • Consider deeper, more textured styles that work well with seasonal layers and jackets.
