Summer is here! And as you enjoy the long, sunny days, it is quite likely that you will spend more time outdoors. While you do, remember that just as your body, your hair needs protection from the sun too. Learn how to protect your hair from the sun, heat and humidity using the best and most natural methods. Summer hair care has never been so easy!
KEEP YOUR HAIR HYDRATED
Frequent exposure to sun and heat makes our bodies crave hydration! This counts for your hair too, why it is a good idea to hydrate it daily with conditioner. While we don’t want to wash our hair on a daily basis, there is something besides the traditional conditioner you can try out. It is called a leave-in conditioner, and it can be applied to the ends of dry hair as well! It is the perfect counterpart to your dry shampoo!
FRIZZ-FIGHT
Know the feeling of your hair growing 10 sizes the second you step out the door on a humid day? Frizzy hair is definitely annoying, especially during summer. Here’s a creative and simple solution to save the day! Make an easy taming-spray of argan oil and water, and keep it close to spritz whenever moisture or frizz-control is needed.
COVER UP
It is always a good idea to use a stylish scarf or a trendy hat when you are out in the sun. Not only does it provide extra protection against UV rays, but it also helps your scalp to retain moisture. Win win! It will also protect your hair against damage caused by wind, especially if your hair tends to tangle, and it protects colour-treated hair as well.
GIVE YOUR HAIR A HEAT BREAK
What better way to protect your hair than by pulling off the beach wave look, by letting your hair air dry? Between hours in the sun, blow dryers and straighteners, your hair has been exposed to heat enough. A few times a week, it can be advantageous to do a non-maintenance hair-do to give your hair the break it needs from heated styling.
DRINK LOTS OF WATER
It’s the never ending story; drink more water! It is indispensable for our body and mind, and guess what? It does wonders to our hair too. So don’t forget to drink 2-3 liters of water every day to keep your hair and scalp hydrated.
