How to keep your hair looking amazing in this summer heat! PART 1

Hi guys, the sun is here and I hope you're all enjoying it!!










Want beautiful summer hair?
PART 1

Who doesn't?! Before you can have beautiful hair it has to be healthy! So here is some advice to keep your hair in tip top condition, looking shiny and healthy with some easy tricks to achieve beautiful summer up-styles and beach waves in part 2!

1) Use the heat of the summer to your hair’s advantage! While you’re at the beach or poolside, treat your hair to a deep-conditioning mask such as Aveda's Damage Remedy Restructuring Treatment. Then comb your hair into a bun and let the product go to work while you lounge. This trick can protect your hair from salt or chlorinated water and give you an extra boost of softness and shine.

Just as your body needs water to survive, your hair must replenish its moisture to stay healthy. "Conditioner for hair is like water for the body: You're always going to need it."

2) Use a sun protector or use a shampoo and conditioner that has sun screen in it! 

Effects of direct sun rays on hair can be harsh on your lovely hair! Exposing your hair for even 10 minutes can produce 70-80 degrees Celsius heat and this can crack your cuticle. It can do harm, suck out moisture and can even burn your scalp so remember this when your laying out or on holidays! Aveda sun veil is perfect.

3) Wash your locks with lukewarm water. However, some people put ice in the water to make it cold which is wrong. Water temperature should neither be too hot nor too cold; it should be balanced.

4) A well-balanced diet is the key to keeping your hair healthy and strong. Eat lots of fruit and vegetables, nuts, brown rice, beans and pulses to have those healthy and lustrous tresses. Also, drink plenty of water. 

5) Have regular trims! Trimming your hair every 6-8 weeks will help keep the split ends at bay, prevent further breakage or damage and will keep your hair looking perfect from root to tip!

If you follow this advice you'll have the health in your hair to keep it looking gorgeous!

Keep enjoying the sun! Gemma x
