Summer care tips for your hair!

Sun, chlorine and salt water strip the hair of its moisture and natural oils making it brittle and dry.

To keep hair looking it’s best, we need to compensate for what summertime fun is doing to our hair. Here are some easy to do tricks for summer hair:

1. Always wet hair with clean water before going in chlorine or salt water. Hair is like a sponge and it will fill up with the good water first and not have room to fit the bad water.
2. When possible, apply conditioner over the newly wet hair. This provides an extra level of protection.
3. Always shampoo hair after going in any pool. Using a clarifying shampoo like Ouidad clarifying or Malibu swimmers shampoo.
4. Give yourself a deep conditioner while sunbathing! Apply a deep conditioner right over dry hair, wind it up and sit in the sun. The heat from the sun will help to make the conditioner penetrate. Some great choices for this are Ouidad 12 minute deep conditioner, Wella color care deep conditioner or Deva Curl heaven in hair deep conditioner.

You don’t have to kill your hair to play in summer!
