The summer heat is hard on our skin, bodies and hair. Trips to the beach, lake or pool expose our hair to harsh chemicals like chlorine, salt water and the intense rays of the sun. These conditions can leave our hair feeling brittle, weak and dried out. Humidity can leave hair a frizzy disaster and the sizzling temperatures can dull its shine. Luckily, the products needed to tame our locks all year long are available on SHOP.COM! Read on for our top tips and tricks for the perfect summer hair care.
Fight the frizz
Both curly and straight hair can fight the uphill battle of frizz during the summer heat. You can create a smoother, tamed look by using a frizz-fighting shampoo or hair treatment, which helps your hair to retain the moisture that it needs and avoid drying it out, which means less frizz! We recommend Fixx™ Argan Oil No Frizz to help your hair fight the humidity.
Prevent damage
Don’t let split or frayed ends take over your lovely locks this summer. Be proactive in your hair care! If you straighten or curl your hair with a hot iron on a daily basis, you are already more prone to damaging your ends. When you add in the heat of the summer and the chlorine and chemicals that are in the pool you visit regularly, you want to be sure you are protecting your hair. Try the Royal Spa® Tri-Protein Plus Deep Conditioner for dry, damaged or chemically-treated hair. We also recommend Fixx™ Argan Oil Shampoo and Conditioner to help treat your hair from root to end with the moisturizing nutrients and antioxidants
Keep your color
The rays of sun that you soak in at the pool might help your tan, but they can be damaging on your hair. If you color your hair and leave it unprotected at the pool or beach, you face the chance of dulling the color and/or permanently damaging your hair. Some of our suggestions include wearing a stylish beach hat at the pool and treating your hair weekly with a deep conditioning treatment or moisture rich conditioner to nourish your hair and lock in the color. Prevent your color from fading with the Royal Spa® Ultra III (for Chemically Treated Hair) which helps to counteract the breakage and stripping of moisture.
Repair your hair
All damage is not preventable. With the harsh outdoor elements mixed with the heat and strain that we voluntarily put on our hair, damage will occur. Incorporating a hair repair treatment into your hair routine is a must. Royal Spa® Tri-Protein Plus Deep Conditioner is a deep penetrating conditioner perfect for dry, damaged or chemically-treated hair; enriched with 19 amino acids, 14 essential vitamins, botanical extracts, and a special anti-static formula to relax stressed hair and fight flyaway hair and frizz. This treatment will penetrates deep within the hair shaft to condition and soften hair.
Give it a boost
Humidity, heat and sweat can make it hard to keep a good hairstyle during the summer months. A strong holding hair product can help you have a good hair day even in “bad-hair-day” conditions. Fixx™ Volumizing Boost Spray’s unique formula – with multiple, all-natural extracts – helps give body to flat, lifeless hair and also provides antioxidant protection to help strengthen and nourish your hair. Royal Spa® Awapuhi Mousse is an alcohol-free, non-aerosol styling mousse designed to give you the control of a gel in a conditioning mousse. Together, these products will help your hair-do outlast any summer weather.
