Keep your clients’ hair protected all season with our guide to beating the summer heat.
Are your clients aware of how damaging this season can be for their hair? Whether it’s sun exposure, humidity, sea salt or chlorine, summer can be extra tough on strands – leading to fading colour, split ends and breakage.
From our top haircare tips to recommended treatments and updo inspiration, we’ve put together the ultimate guide to helping your client’s “beat the heat” this summer season!
Share these five top tips with your clients to help maintain optimal hair health during the summer months…
Anything from hats, hair scarfs or a product with UVA/UVB filter can provide a much-needed protective barrier to prevent exposure to the sun’s harmful rays. Just like you would with your skin, avoid sunbathing in the midday sun and instead seek shade or go out earlier in the day.
A hydrated body = hydrated hair, so keeping on top of your water consumption during the summer months will have a positive impact on your hair’s moisture. As a result, hair will be less frizzy and easier to style.
Avoid styling tools which can dry out your hair further. Heat breaks bonds within the hair structure and can cause permanent damage. If you do need to reach for a hot styling tool, use a low heat setting and a protection spray.
Don’t forget to schedule in a summer salon visit! Trimming your ends regularly will speed up your hair’s recovery process, enhancing health and vitality.
After spending time in the sun, follow up with a haircare regime to reduce and repair hair damage. Use a gentle cleanser to remove any excess residue left in the hair, before following up with an intensive treatment to nourish and restore lengths...
During the humid months, it’s likely your clients are looking for styles to keep them cool, and updo’s are the perfect solution to keeping your client’s hair away from their face and neck.
