We can thank Hallmark holiday movies for giving the impression that winter hair is gorgeous hair. The couples may meet cute, or not, but you can bet the lady in question has glossy tresses with voluminous waves. No hat hair here.

Try that in real life, and in New England weather.

It’s time to arm ourselves with all the the right products, tools, accessories — as well as some key hair know-how — to get holiday-worthy hair. Here’s how to do it:

Soft and conditioned: Fighting dryness during cold weather is no easy task. So start feeding your locks some serious moisture early n the season. One excellent way to do that is by zeroing in on ingredients that restore elasticity, like hibiscus flower extract — a key element in the dae Signature Duo ($56 on daehair.com). The set of shampoo and conditioner contains keratin-producing amino acids that trap moisture in hair.

Another pro tip? Embrace treatments. For this I love the brand SEEN, which has two new products: the Frizz + Repair Treatment Mask ($36 on helloseen.com), which works in as little as five minutes, and their Leave-in Conditioner ($29 on helloseen.com), a lightweight formula that relies on natural ingredients like squalane to nourish locks and add softness.

Glossy shine: Nothing says “holiday” like a little shimmer — and nothing says “healthy hair” like shine. So pick up some Halo Hair Oil ($38 on emijay.com) and dab on a couple of drops as the final step in your haircare routine, as well as a pretty and light amber-musk scent. Likewise, there’s also Briogeo’s Don’t Despair, Repair! ($39 on briogeohair.com), a deep conditioning mask — scented like a vanilla birthday cake, no less — that leaves hair silky and shiny, and looking as gorgeous as it smells.

Keeping your color: No one needs to feel faded during the holidays. Keep your blonde from dulling out with dpHue’s Gentle Brightening Shampoo ($28 on dphue.com), which pulls out metals, chlorine, and minerals to liven you right up. For brunettes who tend to get a tad off-tone, the same brand’s Cool Brunette Set ($50.40) banishes any sign of imperfection. And ditto blondes who want to keep brassiness at bay, there’s Violet Hour Purple Shampoo ($28 on daehair.com). A few washes, and it’s blonde ambition all the way. And if you should happen to notice any unfortunate roots growing in? In a pinch, grab a wand of Toppik’s Fill Me In Hairline Filler ($24.95 on topic.com). It’s the quickest instant touch-up lifesaver there is, and comes in multiple colors.

Festive accessories: Hair needs jewelry too — especially right now. Get to sparkling with pieces like the May Emerald Gigi Jeweled Birthstone Headband ($165 on lelesadoughi.com), a delicate green padded topper for celebrating. Or if pins are more your thing, sparkling sets like the Mixed Jeweled Hair Clips Set ($20 on urbanoutfitters.com) can be mixed and matched to make any outfit dressier.

Turn up the volume: Limp hair is a literal downer. If your locks are on the thin-to-medium side, try Viviscal Thickening Shampoo and Strengthening Conditioner Collection ($22 on viviscal.com)

And before you head out to the holiday party, don’t forget a spray of Batiste Sweat Activated Dry Shampoo ($13.79 at ulta.com) that uses smart technology for up to 24 hours to absorb oil and keep your style fresh up all night, so dancing till midnight is always on the table.
