We all know how the hot summer sun is harmful to our skin, and we take due precautions for it. But have you ever given a thought about the effects that sun has on hair ??? The sun can wreak equal havoc with our hair as with our skin.

How To Protect Hair In Summer?

Our hair gets harmed in many different ways during summers – overexposure to sun’s harmful rays, sweat, and humidity and of course, spending too much time in a swimming pool AKA chlorinated water. While all of these are reasons enough to lead to a bad hair day and cause long-term damage, a little pre-emptive care is all your hair needs to stay beautiful!

While you reach out for all products that work wonders on your hair, remember to check out a few things first:

1. Scalp type – oily, dry, dandruff, itchy, combination or any other medical condition
2. Hair type – straight, curly, wavy, colored, treated, permed, straightened or any other

Home Remedies For Oily and Greasy Hair

Avoid Too Many Cosmetics

Summers already dries your hair out and causes damage to them. So make sure you go easy on any chemical hair treatments during this period. Avoid too much coloring, whether at the spa or home.

If you want to color your hair or change the color during summer, try and do it a month or two before the sun hits hard.

Love Your Conditioner

While the sun is drying out your hair, make sure you help restore some moisture and life in it by using a rinse-out conditioner. Get one that suits your hair type and texture. If you are going for a swim, remember to put on a leave-in conditioner on your hair and wear a swimming cap.

Shampoo With Care

While you feel like shampooing your hair every day, doing so will 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 that is especially good for summers.

Shampoo only on the scalp, not the hair, and as you wash your hair, the suds will rinse down, cleaning up your hair too. Putting shampoo separately on your hair and hair tips will dry them out.

Swimming

During summer, you love to hit the pool, right? If you’re going swimming, remember DO NOT shampoo before you go for a swim, as this will rob your hair of all protective oils and will make it extra vulnerable to the chemicals and salt in the water.

Once you’re out of the pool and have taken a quick shower, use a shampoo that contains ethylene tetra-acetic acid. This will remove any harmful effects of chlorine that the water may have.

Tips To Protect Your Hair From The Summer Sun

Avoid Heat

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.

Trim Them

The tips of your hair take a lot of beating during the summer. This is when you see split ends and dry tips, and this is neither healthy for your hair, nor do they look good. Summer is the ideal time to give yourself a new haircut, but if you don’t want to shorten your hair, opt for a small trim that will take care of the ends and bring back life to your hair.

Care For Your Color

If you have recently colored your hair or have colored hair, you would want to take extra care of them in the summers. Hair sustains maximum damage with chemical treatments leading to color fading and excessive hair dryness.

While selecting hair care products, go for ones that are specially made for colored or treated hair. If you have recently colored your hair, try going out less often in the sun, especially when it’s at its peak. If you need to, try covering your hair with a hat or a scarf.

Sun Protection

The best way to screen hair from the scorching sun is wearing a scarf. If the scarf is not to your liking, then make sure you use a leave-in conditioner with sunscreens. If you have too much work outdoors and are in the sun often, opt for hair products that have a good amount of SPF in them. You may also want to go for a special hair mask or sunscreen product that is made for your hair. However make sure you wash your hair once you are home.

Control Frizz

The summer heat makes your hair extra dry, making it frizzy. Try and control your hair from becoming too frizzy by tying it up. Use the hot months to show off your hair in different styles, from braids to ponytails to updos, knots, and buns. Not only does it keep your hair protected from frizz, but it also reduces the sweating.

Tips To Protect Your Hair From The Summer Sun

Lots Of Fluids

While you may be doing all of the above to protect your hair from the sun, if you’re not drinking enough water, you’re not going to achieve anything. Your hair and your skin will benefit immensely from the amount of water and extra fluids that you have. So opt for cooling liquids that will help you keep your hair healthy and hydrated. Include as many fresh fruits and vegetables in your diet as you can. This is an essential hair care tip for summer.

Co-Wash

Agreed hair gets dirtier in summers, and regular cleansing is a must. But shampoo is not the only option for hair wash. Co-wash your hair which means conditioner-washing is the ideal summer care for hair. Just wet your hair, use a replenishing conditioner for 2 minutes and rinse off. Yes, co-washing hair daily does cleanse to a major extent and limits shampooing for 3-4 days.

Dry Wash

Oily hair and daily co-wash is making hair greasy, and you feel shampoo is a must? Then shift to Dry-shampoos. So many dry shampoos are available in the market. One can even sprinkle some baby talc and comb it out. It’s a handy dry-shampoo. This is one of the simplest hair care tips for summer.

Tips To Protect Your Hair From The Summer Sun

Deep Conditioning Treatments

Summers are a harsh time, and summer hair care tips are important. The hair tends to get drier, thinner and more brittle and if you expose your hair to the sun, you need to attend to it more regularly. Thus, deep conditioning treatments are a must and would keep your hair hydrated and nourished.

Hair-Dos

Summer hair care dictates that it is the time for flaunting hair-dos but not for flaunting your beautiful tresses. Explore your skills by trying new styles in Ponytails, Buns, and Up-dos. They are stylish yet elegant and protects hair from external damage. But if you have short hair, it doesn’t mean it can’t be just as much fun! Here are a few summer hairstyles for short hair.

Right Hair Products

Look out for products with the tags Replenishing, Hydrating and Moisturizing. Avoid any styling product that has formaldehyde(alcohol) and the products that come with the tags Volumizing or Bouncy. These dry the hair more so strictly avoidable.
