5 Ways To Protect Your Hair After The Long And Hot Summer!

Summer is coming to an end and thank goodness because the sun is damaging to our lovely, beautiful locks!

Sun can be particularly difficult for your hair (and skin) because you are exposed to more heat than usual. Heat means that your hair loses its strength leading to more split ends and makes your lovely tresses feel like straw. Not only is it good to protect your hair but it also helps to shield your scalp from the sun and nasty burns.

Many people think that your hair protects your scalp from receiving any burns but that simply is not the case. So, if you want to avoid getting sun burns, split ends and dandruff, follow our five different ways that you can protect your hair from the warm, but dangerous, sun!

OUR 5 WAYS TO PROTECT YOUR HAIR

 

1. Stay away from flat and curling irons as much as possible.

 

This can be difficult for a lot of you, particularly if you prefer to have your curly hair straight or giving your straight hair a little more of a bounce! Using these tools are dangerous enough if used improperly and can leave lasting negative effects (hair loss being an unkind one) and exposing your hair to even more heat from the sun can ruin the cuticle of your hair.

2. Prevent your hair from getting dry and brittle by trimming your hair more often. The summer sun can be brutal for your locks because it dries your hair harshly. Cutting your hair can help to keep the ends from splitting and drying out too quickly.

 

3. Colour-treated hair has an adverse reaction to the sun, often fading in colour, sheen and drying out much quicker due to the chemicals used in your hair.

 

4. Choose your shampoo wisely.

 

5. Your conditioner adds a layer of protection to your hair which effectively bounces light away from your hair. Not only giving you a healthy, glowing sheen but also protecting your cuticle from breaking and losing its strength.
