Menopause can wreak havoc on hair, skin and nails, but, when the cold weather creeps in, be prepared for a double whammy.

The natural decline in women’s estrogen and collagen levels with age leads to dryness in both hair and skin. Coupled with moisture-zapping winter temperatures, these symptoms worsen, while others–bloating, cramping and mood swings–persist.

So, how does one effectively combat these issues? Beauty expert Shari Koffman dropped by The Morning Show to share her tips on how to soothe menopause symptoms this season.

 

Experience the transformative powers of Wella’s Hair Rescue Serum–a true miracle in a bottle for common menopausal hair concerns.

A decline in estrogen levels can compromise the production of keratin, a crucial component for maintaining strong and healthy nails.
