Summer hair!
Posted by Barbosa, Larissa on 29th Apr 2024
Summer is certainly the most eagerly awaited season for heat lovers, but we know that it's a time when we're exposed to many things that damage our hair. That's why we've put together some basic tips that can save your hair this summer
- Protection from the sun's rays: Just as we protect our skin from the sun's rays, we should also protect our hair. Use hair products with UV filters to protect your hair from sun damage. In addition, wearing hats or scarves can help protect your hair and scalp from the sun's direct rays.
- Intensive moisturizing: Summer heat and exposure to the sun can dry out hair. That's why it's important to maintain an intensive moisturizing routine during this season. Use moisturizing masks once a week and don't forget to apply a leave-in conditioner after each wash to keep your hair hydrated and protected.
- Avoid frequent washing: Washing your hair too often during the summer can strip your scalp of its natural oils, leaving your hair dry and lifeless. Try to space out washing times and, when you do wash, use lukewarm or cold water to avoid excessive dryness.
- Thermal protection: If you often use heat tools to style your hair, it's important to keep protecting it during the summer. Use heat protection products before using a hair dryer, flat iron or curling iron to minimize heat damage.
- Avoid chlorine and seawater: Chlorine from the pool and salt from seawater can damage hair, leaving it dry and brittle. Before going into the pool or sea, apply a little leave-in conditioner to your hair to create a protective barrier. After swimming in the pool or sea, rinse your hair with clean water to remove any chlorine or salt residue.
- Cut regularly: During the summer, it's even more important to keep the ends of your hair trimmed to prevent damage from spreading along the strands. Schedule regular haircuts to remove split ends and keep your hair healthy and looking good.
Following these simple tips can help protect your hair during the summer and keep it healthy and beautiful even with the high temperatures and exposure to the sun. Remember to adjust your care routine according to your hair's needs and enjoy the season without worrying about the health of your strands!
