Summer is here and it’s time to pay extra attention to your haircare routine. This season can bring its fair share of challenges, including exposure to harmful UV rays, excessive heat, humidity, and chlorine damage. However, with the right knowledge and care, you can keep your locks looking luscious and healthy throughout the sunny months. In this blog, we’re sharing just a few of our top tips on summertime survival guide for hair:

1. Hydration is Key. Just as your skin and body need hydration during the hot summer months, so does your hair. The sun’s rays can dry out your hair, making it prone to damage and frizz. To combat this, make sure to drink plenty of water and use hydrating hair products.

Product Recommendation:

2. Shield from the Sun. Prolonged sun exposure can weaken and fade your hair colour, leaving it brittle and off-tone. Protect your colour by using hair products that contain UV filters or wearing a hat or headscarf scarf when you’re out in the sun.

Product Recommendation:
GOLDWELL DUAL SENSES SUN REFLECTION UV SPRAY

3. Prevent water damage. Chlorine and salt water can really damage your hair, so before taking a dip in the pool or ocean, wet your hair with clean water to minimise chlorine or salt absorption. Afterwards, rinse your hair thoroughly and apply a deep conditioning treatment.

Product Recommendation:
ORIBE SUPERSHINE MOISTURIZING CREAM

4. Regular Trims. Summer is a good time to get a trim and eliminate any split ends or damaged hair. Regular trims keep your hair looking fresh and healthy and also promote faster hair growth.
