Summer Hair - Our Best Tips to Get Your Hair Summer Ready

Finally, a long hot summer is predicted, free from social distancing! Yay!!
It's been amazing to be able to watch the football, tennis and kids pottering in the garden all the while nursing a cold drink.
I must admit, the heat has sometimes been a bit over bearing but hey, it's Summer and the perfect excuse for a few cocktails to bring down your body's temperature. That's my excuse anyway.
Okay, back to the hair... Here are my 10 best tips because Ellie turns 10 in a few days.
If you don't already have a Detangling Spray. We would definitely recommend you get one soon to try. One of our best  and most essential natural hair care products

1. Protect your hair from direct heat where possible.

This also helps your hair keep the moisture and hydration from the Detangling Spray and Leave-In Conditioner.
- hats, scarves, umbrellas etc.. no one is judging.

Disclaimers; Go for hats that do not let in direct sunlight and scarves made of satin or materials that won't rub against your hair that can cause more damage.

 

2. Put your hair up in loose, comfortable styles

A messy braid, pineapple hair style etc is ideal for simpler wash and go styles because it helps by limiting your hairs exposure to the sun. Tight hairstyles can be damaging because they tend to pull and tear hair and sometimes leads to traction alopecia. Grab one of our scrunchies and tie it loosely.

 

3. Wash Less often

I have written several blogs and many instagram posts about the joys of less frequent shampooing - just ensure you are using the Nourishing Conditioner between shampoo washes. Washing too often strips your scalp of its natural oils, which in turn stimulates additional oil production and makes you feel the need to wash it even more.

4. Hydration

Keep your detangling spray handy - you will need several top ups during the day in particularly hot heat. We all know that we have to drink more often in the heat. This applies to your hair too. Why not look out for our limited edition Curl Hydrators perfect for curly and wavy hair care!

5. Condition more regularly

In addition to regular conditioning with our Nourishing Conditioner, you should aim to use our Intensive Mask at least once a week.

6. Swimming?

Coat your hair with the leave-in conditioner or detangling spray before swimming. This will help your hair absorb less chlorine retaining it's healthy natural look.

7. Stay away from the Roots

Try to apply the Leave-In conditioner to your hair, avoiding the scalp. Applying the conditioner on your scalp or right at the roots can sometimes make your hair look greasy and limp.

8. MASK! MASK! MASK!

This is not the time to skip your weekly Intensive Mask routine. Not only can you use it on dry hair as you bask in the sunlight, it also imparts and intense boost of hydration and nourishment to your hair.

9. Comb, don't brush

Use a gentle Curly Comb on your hair instead of brushing. It is far better for detangling.

10. Enjoy the Summer

It only lasts for a few months make the most of it!
