Warm Weather is Great, But Not For Your Hair! Learn to Care for Your Hair in Hot Weather.


Spring time is here and summer is approaching fast. The sun is out and we all enjoy this time to visit the beach or play in the yard.  We all know to protect our skin with sunscreen while outside for long periods of time, but did you know that your hair needs protection too? Here are some tips that may help you protect your hair from the hot summer sun this year. 


Your hair needs vitamins and supplements just like your body especially when it's exposed to harsher elements such as the sun, sand, or wind. For women with color-treated hair, your hair is at an even higher risk for dehydration and damage. The sun, chlorine, and saltwater are all factors to consider when playing outside on a sunny day.

The sun is the reason that most women have to color their hair twice as often in the summer time. Whereas, the chlorine and saltwater dry out and cause damage to the hair follicles.  The best way to protect color- treated hair during the summer time is to put an SPF product on your hair several times a day while you’re exposed to harsh temperatures. An easy way is to do this is to mix your ordinary SPF with water in a spray bottle and just spray it on your hair. This may help protect the color and prevent damage.
