Spring Clean Your Hair Routine: What to Keep, Swap, or Toss

Say goodbye to winter buildup and hello to healthy, glowing spring hair.

As we welcome longer days and blooming flowers here in Washington, it’s the perfect time to spring clean—not just your home, but your hair routine too. Winter weather, heavy products, and extra heat styling can leave your strands dull, dry, and weighed down. Spring is all about fresh starts, so let’s break down what to keep, swap, or toss to help your hair thrive this season.

Keep: Scalp Love & Consistency

Your scalp is the foundation of healthy hair, and if you’ve already been using a scalp serum—don’t stop now! Spring is prime time to support new growth and rebalance any winter dryness.

Keep using:

Goldie Locks® Scalp Serum

It promotes a healthy scalp environment, supports hair growth, and soothes any lingering irritation. A few drops massaged in weekly can make a big difference in your hair’s long-term health.

Swap: Heavy Creams for Lightweight Hydration

Winter products are usually thicker and richer, which can weigh your hair down as the weather warms up (especially in our damp, unpredictable PNW spring).

Swap this: Thick, heavy conditioners or oils

For this:

Goldie Locks® Signature Serum

It gives your hair just the right amount of hydration, softness, and shine—without buildup. It’s also safe for extensions and protects against breakage while keeping your hair light and touchable.

Toss: Product Buildup & Old Brushes

Been using the same products since last fall? Your hair tools and styling products might be doing more harm than good—especially if you use heat often or wear extensions.

Toss:

• Expired products

• Any brush that pulls, snags, or sheds

• Anything that leaves a sticky residue

Replace with:

Goldie Locks® Soft Boar Bristle Brush

It’s gentle, extension-safe, and helps distribute your scalp’s natural oils—essential for growth and shine.

Bonus Tip: Refresh Your Hair Care Shelf

Use spring as a reason to reset. Organize your products, clean your brushes, and recommit to a simple, effective routine that supports your hair and scalp through the seasonal shift.

Final Thoughts:

Spring is about shedding the old and making room for growth—literally and energetically. With a few simple swaps and the right tools (like your Goldie Locks essentials), you can step into the season feeling fresh, radiant, and ready for all the warm-weather hair moments ahead.
