HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR SUMMER HAIR

Embrace The Sunshine With Healthy Haircare Practices

Welcome to the season of sun-kissed days, beach escapades, and outdoor adventures! Whether you're lounging poolside or dancing under the stars, maintaining luscious locks amidst the heat and humidity is essential. Fear not, for we've curated a comprehensive guide to ensure your mane remains radiant and resilient throughout the summer months.

Hydration is vital

As the mercury rises, so does the need for hydration – not just for your skin, but for your hair too! The scorching sun and salty sea can strip moisture from your strands, leaving them dry and brittle. Combat this with nourishing hair masks and hydrating serums infused with natural oils like coconut, argan, or jojoba. Apply these treats weekly to replenish moisture and restore vitality to your locks.

Shield Against The Sun

Just as we protect our skin with SPF, our hair deserves the same level of care. Invest in a UV-protectant spray or leave-in conditioner to protect your hair from the sun's harmful rays. Not only does this prevent colour fading, but it also acts as a barrier against dryness and breakage. Remember to reapply throughout the day, especially if you're spending extended periods outdoors.

We recommend using Natural Colour Works silicone-free leave-in hair mask to protect your hair. It’s packed full of organic shea butter, quinoa, pea and soy protein in a cocktail of argon oil, avocado oil, jojoba and prickly pear oils to nourish, repair and protect your hair.

Embrace The Elements

Summer hair is all about embracing the natural texture and effortless waves that come with sun and saltwater exposure. Opt for low-maintenance styles like tousled beach waves or chic braids that withstand the elements while exuding effortless charm. Embrace the imperfections and let your hair flow freely with the gentle breeze – after all, perfection lies in the undone.

Keep It Cool

When it comes to summer hair care, less is often more. Embrace air-drying over heat styling to minimise damage and preserve your hair's natural vitality. If you must use heat tools, ensure they're set to a lower temperature, and always use a heat protectant spray beforehand. Consider incorporating a weekly clarifying shampoo to remove product buildup and refresh your scalp.

Hydrate From Within

Beautiful hair starts from within, so remember to nourish your body with plenty of water and nutrient-rich foods. Incorporate hydrating fruits and vegetables like watermelon, cucumber, and spinach into your diet to promote healthy hair growth and vitality. Remember, a well-nourished body radiates beauty from the inside out.

Trim And Tend

Regular trims are essential for maintaining healthy hair, especially during the summer months. Schedule a visit to your hairstylist every 6-8 weeks to rid your mane of split ends and promote growth. Not only does this keep your hair looking fresh and vibrant, but it also prevents breakage.

Summer hair care is all about embracing the natural beauty of your locks while protecting them from the harsh elements. With the right products and techniques, you can enjoy radiant, healthy hair all season long. So, let your hair down, soak up the sun, and embrace the effortless allure of summer style. After all, life's too short for bad hair days!
