While spending time playing in the water or working on your suntan might be your main priorities this summer, there is one thing you shouldn’t forget about - the havoc that UV rays can wreak on your hair and scalp. While we all probably know how important it is to wear sunscreen in order to protect our body and face from harmful rays, we often forget about applying the same protection to our scalp and hair. That’s why in this post we will be sharing a few tips to keep your locks looking beautiful all summer long. But first, here are some stats to drive our point home - protecting your hair and scalp is ESSENTIAL!
If you step outside without protection, you’re increasing the chances that your color will fade (due to oxidation) and your hair will turn brittle (due to loss of moisture) which could lead to thinning hair. In addition, the free radicals produced by wind, chlorine, and saltwater can compromise your hair fiber leading to a brittle texture. And since chemically treated hair is more vulnerable to moisture loss, it’s even more important to protect your hair if you color your hair. For example, those who dye their hair blonde may experience a brassy appearance if they go out in the sun unprotected. And we don’t want that!!
Here are a few tips to keep your locks looking beautiful all summer long…
1. Switch to our Silk Protein Shampoo and Silk Protein Condition or our Anguilla Shampoo and Anguilla Conditioner.
2. Book a deep conditioning treatment ($45-$55) or purchase our Argan Oil Restorative Hair Mask for full hydration.
3. Rinse off saltwater or chlorine immediately after swimming.
4. Use our Vital Complex as an SPF while out in the sun.
5. Finish off your summer look with a hat for complete protection.
