Cold Weather Grooming_ Keeping Your Hair & Beard in Top Shape

The temperature’s dropped, the jackets are out, and the air is dry enough to rival a good gin. While autumn and winter bring plenty of style opportunities, they can be brutal on your grooming routine. Cold air outside and heaters indoors don’t just mess with your skin; they also dry out your scalp, hair, and beard.

But relax, we’ve got you covered! With a few smart habits and the right products, your hair and beard can remain as smooth, sharp, and stylish as your winter coat. Here’s how to stay well-groomed through the chilly season with help from Armitage Men’s Outfitters.

Start with the Professionals: Armitage Barber Services

Every great grooming routine starts with a proper foundation, and nothing beats a professional touch. Our Barber Services offer a full grooming experience tailored to the modern man, from sharp haircuts and traditional hot towel shaves to precision beard shaping and eyebrow tidy-ups.

More than just a trim, it’s about maintaining your personal style with expert care. Plus, our barbers use top-tier products and techniques to help you manage dryness, irritation, and seasonal frizz right from the chair.

Hydrate the Hair: Don’t Let the Cold Win

Your hair needs extra hydration during cold months, dry air can lead to brittle strands and flaky scalps. The solution? Treat your hair like you would your skin: cleanse, condition, and nourish.

We recommend Goldwell shampoos and treatments to keep your scalp balanced and your hair looking healthy. Whether you're rocking a fade or letting it grow, Goldwell’s formulas protect against breakage and maintain that just-left-the-barber look.

Beard Maintenance 101

Let’s be honest, cold weather can leave your beard feeling more like a Brillo pad than a gentleman’s statement piece. That’s why a proper routine matters.

Step 1: Wash

Begin with the Reuzel Beard Wash, a gentle yet effective cleanser that removes dirt, softens the beard, and nourishes the skin beneath.

Step 2: Brush

A proper beard brush is a must. It distributes natural oils, tames flyaways, and keeps your beard looking intentionally rugged, not chaotic.

Step 3: Condition
 Now layer on moisture and protection. Gun Wax offers a beard care trio built for cold weather:

●      GunWax Natural Beard Oil – hydrates and softens the beard

●      GunWax Gunbar Soap – cleanses without stripping natural oils

●      GunWax Beard Balm – styles and locks in moisture with a subtle hold

Together, they keep your beard looking full, healthy, and well-groomed—even when the wind bites.

Finish with a Signature Scent

A refined man finishes his grooming routine the way he finishes his outfit, with purpose. The Amouage collection adds a touch of luxury with fragrances that are warm, crisp, and entirely winter-worthy. A quick spritz goes a long way in leaving a lasting impression, whether you're headed to the office or your favourite fireside spot.

Stay Sharp All Season

Cold weather grooming doesn’t need to be complicated. With expert barber services and premium products, Armitage Men’s Outfitters makes it simple to keep your hair and beard in top shape, no matter how low the mercury drops.
