Having silk-shiny hair does not only depend on your genetics. Proper hair care is essential! The sunny summer can be very damaging to your strands and make them dry, frizzy, and brittle. Here are some summer hair care tips to help keep your hair healthy and strong.
- Shampoo your hair less often. Try to shampoo no more than twice a week and switch to more moisturizing and gentle shampoos.
- Reduce chemical hair treatments. Avoid coloring, bleaching, relaxers, chemical straighteners, etc as much as you can in the summer. They dry the hair a lot.
- Do not use hot styling tools. Don't use the blow dryer, hot iron, or rollers. Air dry your hair and go for a cut that is easy to manage. All sorts of braids are in style this summer so you can braid your damp hair and even un-braid when dry for natural curls.
- Condition your hair. Use appropriate rinse-out conditioner and leave-in conditioner after washing. Also, deep condition your hair more often using appropriate hair repair products. Apply conditioner to damp hair and wrap in a plastic wrap or a shower cap. Allow a few hours or leave in overnight for extra repair and moisture.
- Treat ends with Jojoba oil. Jojoba oil helps with frizzy hair and protects your ends from drying out. It also prevents static electricity.
- Use SPF protection. Apply leave-in or protective sun care products for your hair and scalp.
- Cover up. Wear a hat which allows for proper air circulation and blood flow.
- Get your ends trimmed regularly. This is very important during summer to prevent your ends from drying out, frizzing, and splitting.
- HYDRATE to keep your hair roots and scalp moisturized from the inside out. Drink a lot of water to keep your skin soft and plump.
