Summer is a great time to work on that tan, but it can also be harsh on your hair. Between chlorine from the pool and damage from the sun, your mane can take a beating. Here are a few ways to combat the summer sun and take your hair from fried to fabulous without taking a trip to your local hair salon every other day… Even though we’d love to see you! Check out these friendly tips.
Dry Shampoo
Washing your hair everyday is not only time consuming, it is drying to those precious tresses. You do not have to spend big bucks and buy a dry shampoo from the salon, even a sprinkling of talcum powder can soak up the oils in your scalp without damaging the ends as a regular shampooing would. Your trip to the hair salon won’t be in vain, either, as your style will last longer without the frequent washes.
Try a Natural Moisturizer
Coconut oil is a great way to add some much needed moisture back to those beach beaten locks. Simply slather on after a long day in the sun for instantly hydrated hair. You can apply a little to smooth out fly-aways, or a lot for a fantastic overnight mask.
Get a Trim
If your ends are looking a little fried, a trip to your local hair stylist may just be the ticket to healthier hair. Cutting off a few inches of split ends will make all of the difference in how healthy your hair looks and feels. Plus, who doesn’t love a short new hairstyle for the season?
Leave It Alone
Do not slather on products and fry your hair with the curling iron every single day, give it a little rest once in awhile. All the extra heat put on your mane is just amplified in the summer because of all the extra wear and tear. It deserves a little rest, go for a cute boho braid or messy bun for a cute but easy look that will leave your locks happy.
Visit the Salon
Don’t forget to visit your local hair salon for a brand new ‘do for summer! They can apply great hydrating masks as well as recommend products specifically for your hair type that will have you looking lovely!
Keep It Simple
Natural ingredients are best, so look for products that are low in alcohol and high in nourishing vitamins.
