The summer season is a great time to enjoy the outdoors, but it can be tough on your hair. Heat, humidity, and chlorine can all take a toll, leaving your hair dry, frizzy, and damaged. But don\u2019t let that stop you from having fun in the sun! With a few simple tips, you can keep your hair healthy and looking its best all summer long.<\/span><\/p>\n First things first: It is essential in the summer to protect your hair from the sun. This not only benefits your hair, but also your hair color. Besides the damaging effects on hair, the UV rays in sunlight can wreak havoc on your color, causing it to fade prematurely.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Try wearing a hat or scarf when you\u2019re outdoors. With so many fun choices, this not only protects your hair, but also gives you added style.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We also recommend using a leave-in conditioner with SPF and try to avoid hair products with a lot of alcohol in them as they can dry out your hair. Instead, look for hair products that contain natural oils, like coconut oil or argan oil. These will help keep your hair hydrated and healthy all summer long!<\/span><\/p>\n We need to be extra vigilant about deep conditioning our hair during the summer. Look for products that contain natural ingredients to replenish lost moisture. Once a week should do the trick, but if you\u2019re swimming or spending a lot of time in the sun, you may want to condition even more often. The professionals at Elan can give you expert advice on the best products for your hair. If you have questions, call us today at 615.269.0222!<\/span><\/p>\n We all know that washing our hair is important for keeping it clean and healthy. But did you know that you can actually damage your hair by washing it too often? When you shampoo, you remove not only dirt and grime, but also the natural oils that protect your hair. This can lead to dryness, tangles, and breakage.<\/span><\/p>\n So how often should you wash your hair? We recommend limiting washes to 2-3 times per week. If your hair is particularly oily, you may need to wash it more frequently. But for most people, 2-3 times a week should be enough to keep your hair clean and healthy without overtaxing it.<\/span><\/p>\n Avoid heat tools in the summer when you can and let your hair air dry whenever possible. Instead of heat tools, try some fun summer hairstyles like braids or buns. If you do have to use heat, make sure you use a heat protectant product first and don\u2019t overdo it.<\/span><\/p>\n When it comes to hair care, one of the most important tools you can purchase is a good quality hairbrush. A good brush will help to detangle your hair without causing damage. The bristles should be soft and flexible, so they can glide through your hair without snagging or pulling. Look for a brush with a comfortable handle that will fit your hand easily. And be sure to choose a brush that is the right size for your hair type. For example, if you have thick, curly hair, you may need a wider brush to help detangle it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If you\u2019re going to be swimming, either in a pool or the ocean, wet your hair before getting in the water and use a leave-in conditioner. This will help protect your hair from the chlorine or salt water.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n After a refreshing swim, it\u2019s important to rinse your hair with fresh, cold water and apply conditioner. Rinsing in cold water helps to seal the cuticle and prevents chlorine damage. Follow this tip and your hair will be softer, shinier, and less likely to break or become dry and brittle.<\/span><\/p>\n One of the best things you can do for your hair during the summer months is to get regular trims. Trims really help to keep your hair healthy and free of split ends. In addition, they keep your style fresh. Even if you want to grow your hair out, regular trims are the way to go.<\/span><\/p>\n If you trim regularly, especially in the summer, you\u2019ll be left with strong and healthy hair that can withstand anything the summer throws at it. So don\u2019t be afraid to schedule a trimming appointment with one of our professional stylists at Elan. Your hair will thank you for it!<\/span><\/p>\n The sun, salt water, and chlorine in swimming pools can all take their toll on hair. By following these simple tips for summer hair care, you can keep your locks looking healthy and shiny all season long.
