Flair Magazine Are you tired of you damaged summer hair ? here’s how you can help it beat this heat!
- Coconut Oil Cure
Coconut oil is not only healthy but it smells great and is a versatile tool for your summer beauty kit. Using one hundred percent organic coconut oil as a summer go-to is a great idea because it is easy to use and perfect for quenching thirsty hair and skin. Coconut oil is perfect for all types of hair and can be used as a conditioner or styling agent. Use coconut oil to tame curls, to slick back a high bun, or as a deep conditioner before bed.
- Deep Condition
Yes, summer hair gets dirtier easier but resist the temptation to do too much washing. Shampoo strips hair of its natural oils and it isn’t necessary to wash your hair everyday to keep it looking its best. During the summer months wash hair, every other day but opt for deep conditioning treatments to give hair the moisture it desperately needs.
- Skip the Heat
Give the straighteners, blow dryers, curling irons, and other styling tools a rest. Summer is for relaxing so skip the heat and go for a more natural look. Beachy waves, big curls, and relaxed pony tails look great from day to night. Your hair will thank you for the break.
- Cover Up
Hair is sensitive to the sun and other than making hair dry and brittle the sun can also discolor hair. Don’t ruin your expensive hair color by bleaching it in the sun all day. Extensive damage to hair is hard to reverse and summer sun is extremely strong and damaging. If your going to be out in the sun for extended periods of time covering hair can be the best way to protect it. Try a wide brimmed hat, a cute headwrap, or turban.
- Choose Moisturizing Products
Summer exposes hair to more sun, sand, and heat than the rest of the year. Choosing shampoos, conditioners, and styling products that have extra moisture in them is important in the battle against dry, dull, limp hair. Look for products that have olive oils, butters, or extra moisturizing botanicals in them.
