8 Best Summer Hair Care Tips

With summer right around the block, we’re sure you must be planning a fun, family vacation to Goa, a romantic trip to the mountains or maybe a small weekend trip with your friends. But no matter what your summer plans are, with all the fun in the sun comes a change in temperature that can wreak havoc on your hair. Dullness, dry scalp, frizz, texture changes, all of these take a toll on your hair and summer is no longer fun. But worry not, because no matter what your hair type, we’ve got some great summer hair care tips below to get those locks flowing just like those of movie stars.

1. Avoid Cosmetic treatments in Summers:

   Keep off those chemical hair treatments and save your hair from some serious damage and extreme dryness. Our hair care advice would be to avoid too much colouring, whether at the spa or at home. If you really wish to get your hair coloured, try changing it a few months before the sun hits really hard.

2. Deep conditioning for sun dried hair:

   While you’re out in the sun getting your hair fried, don’t forget to restore some life into it by using a conditioner. Pick one that suits your hair texture and type. And before going for a swim, always remember to put on some leave-in conditioner and wearing a swimming cap.

3. Prefer almond shampoos for summers:

   While you feel like shampooing your hair every day, doing so will actually cause more harm than good. Too much shampoo can dry up your scalp and hair even more. If you tend to sweat more on the scalp and if your hair gets greasy and sweaty easily, go for a mild shampoo like Dabur Vatika Black Olive and Almond Shampoo that is especially good for summers.

4. Chop your hair off to avoid split ends in summers:

   Ever wonder why split ends seem to grow even more in summers? It’s because the tips of your hair take a lot of beating during the summer. This is not good news for your hair, especially if you want to make them healthy and look good. Summer is the ideal time to give yourself a new haircut, but if you don’t really want to shorten your hair, go for a minimal trim that will take care of the ends and bring back life to your hair.

5. Hair care for swimmers:

   Who doesn’t enjoy swimming in summers? With the arrival of summers, everyone just wants to take nice dip and relax! But little do people know that shampooing before you go for swimming can damage your hair severely. The high content of chlorine in the water robs your hair of all protective oils making it extra vulnerable to the other chemicals and salt in the water. But once you’re out of the pool, use a mild shampoo to remove any harmful effects of chlorine that the water may have.

6. Avoid heat to prevent hair damage in summers:

   The sun is already putting too much heat on your hair, so avoid the additional heat as much as you can. Go slow on the blow dryer, and if required, wash your hair half an hour earlier so that they get ample time to air-dry. Avoid using the styling iron and curlers and let them be as natural as they can be.

So, follow these hair care tips to beat the summer heat and keep your hair healthy and luscious even in the peak of summers. If you have some of you own tricks that help you save your locks from the summer madness, don’t forget to share in the comments section below!
