From Desert to Caribbean: How Moving Climates Changed My Hair Care Routine

Healthy Hair in Every Climate:

From Chicago Cold to Arizona Heat

I grew up with Chicago’s weather. It was cold, windy, and unpredictable. When I relocated to Arizona, I thought adjusting to the desert climate would be so easy. I was so very wrong.

The dry heat in Arizona was a shock to my hair. No matter what I tried, my hair stayed brittle, thirsty, and hard to manage. That sun and heat cooked my hair in the summer and the mountain air prevented my hair from holding any type of moisture with the products I used. It took years of trial and error to understand how to keep my hair truly moisturized and nourished.

The turning point came when my stylist introduced me to Daurham Hair Products. She not only used them on my hair to build up and counteract the lack of moisture, but also taught me how to build a routine that worked for the desert climate. She was my Arizona Hair Doctor!

That’s when I learned the power of the right products, like “It’s A Miracle” African Oils and Thirst No More Moisturizing Lotion to protect, hydrate, and strengthen my hair against the harsh, dry desert air.

Arizona to the Caribbean: A New Climate, A New Routine

Now I’ve moved again, this time to the Caribbean. Unlike the desert, the challenge here isn’t dryness but constant humidity. At first, I assumed the moist air would be perfect and that my hair could just thrive on its own. Instead, I quickly found myself battling frizz, scalp sweat, product buildup, and protective styles that didn’t hold up as long as I expected.

The difference this time? I already had my trusted go-to products. Instead of spending years figuring out what worked, I simply adjusted my Daurham Hair Products and routine.

In Arizona: Heavier on the hydration and locking in moisture to fight dryness.
In the Caribbean: Lighter, consistent moisture to control frizz of my natural hair and define my curls.

Products like Itch No More Scalp Cleanser keep my scalp fresh from sweat in the heat, and Blessed Oil helps nourish my hair after long beach days.

Beach Days + Protective Styles

Frequent trips to the ocean mean my hair is exposed to salt water that can strip it of moisture. My solution?

Rinse and cleanse with Conditioning Shampoo right after a swim.
Follow with Resurrection Hair Cream to strengthen and restore.
Use Thirst No More Moisturizing Lotion daily to keep protective styles soft and hydrated in the humid air.

Whether I’m wearing braids, wigs, or rocking my curls, I know my hair has what it needs to stay healthy.

Daurham Hair Products support hair care routines in every climate.
