How to Repair Summer Hair Damage
October 2024
After months of sunbathing, swimming, and enjoying the outdoors, your hair might be feeling the effects of summer. The combination of sun exposure, chlorine from pools, and saltwater can leave hair dry, brittle, and discolored. But don’t worry—your post-summer hair can bounce back with the right care!
Top Tips for Restoring Summer-Damaged Hair
Deep Hydration:
Sun and saltwater strip your hair of moisture, leaving it dry and frizzy. Start with a hydrating shampoo and conditioner to restore moisture. Look for products with ingredients like coconut oil, shea butter, or aloe vera that help replenish lost hydration.
Weekly Hair Masks:
Incorporating a weekly hair mask is essential for reviving damaged hair. Hair masks penetrate deeper than regular conditioners and provide an extra boost of moisture and nutrients.
Malibu C Swimmers Wellness Treatment:
Chlorine and minerals like copper from pool water can cause hair discoloration (hello, green tints!) and buildup that leaves hair dull and lifeless. Our salon offers the Malibu C Swimmers Wellness Remedy as an add-on to any appointment. This treatment detoxifies hair, removes damaging chemicals, and restores shine and health.
Trim Away Split Ends:
The sun and heat can cause split ends, so a post-summer trim is essential to keep your hair looking healthy. Regular trims also help maintain hair strength and prevent further breakage.
Use Leave-In Conditioner with UV Protection:
Going forward, protect your hair from further UV damage with a leave-in conditioner that offers UV protection. This step is crucial if you’re spending more time outdoors.
