Summer Tips For Hair

• It is essential you cover your hair with a hat or a scarf during summers. This protects it from the harmful UV rays and it also helps in retaining moisture.

• Keeping your hair in a loose hairstyle works wonders during the summer. It helps air out your locks and prevents the accumulation of sweat.

• Avoid washing your hair too much during this season; it strips your hair of the essential oils that moisturize it naturally. Also use mild shampoos.

• Resort to air-drying your hair as much as possible. That’s because blow-drying makes your hair frizz up.

• Don’t forget to or skip conditioning; it helps de-frizz your hair during the humid season. Also, opt for deep conditioning at least once a week.

• This is a great hack. After applying sunscreen on your body, simply run your fingers through your hair and let the residual sunscreen protect your hair from UV rays.

• Don’t brush your hair, use a wide-tooth comb instead. These tend to be way less harsh when it comes to untangling your locks.

• Summer is the best time to trim your tresses. That’s because the likelihood of splint ends forming is higher in summer.

• Your hair is also a reflection of your lifestyle. Which is why a balanced diet and healthy exercise regimen will add a sheen to your hair.

• Summer makes you sweaty and want to shower a lot. However, ensure you use a shower filter so that any impurities that may be present in the water don’t hurt your hair.

• What with pollution already working its black magic on your hair, the last thing you need is to let stress get to you. That’s because stress causes hair loss; stay calm.

• Another important summer hair care tip is to give heat styling a break. Opt for natural styling instead. Consult a board certified trichologist for hair issues.
