Treat your hair this summer tips to keep your locks in tip top shape!

Summer Hair Care


As the Summer is almost here, all things become about being outdoors and enjoying the limited sunshine that occurs in the UK, or jetting of abroad to enjoy some guaranteed Sun! All well and good, however sun, sea, wind, sand and chemicals all take their toll on our hair during the Summer months. In the Summer is when most of us feel our best, we want our hair to look its best as well! 

The great thing about Summer hairstyles, is they tend to be relaxed and fun. A simple hairband to keep your hair out of your face, or up in a pony tail or messy bun work brilliantly, however don't forget to maintain your locks in the Summer months!

Here are 5 professional tips to keep your hair looking its best:

TIP 1

As the weather heats up, lay off from blow-drying your hair too much! Your hair will appreciate it! However if you really must blow dry, make sure you use a leave in conditioner like L'anza's leave in protector. It is fantastic and light weight! 

Also always use a heat protecting spray to prevent unwanted heat damage. GHD's thermal protector spray or Paul Mitchell's Heat Seal are brilliant, they wont break the bank and some of the Salon favorites.






TIP 2
Wear a HAT! Yes we know you want to show of your latest colours and cut styles, yet did you know your hair and scalp can burn just like your skin? The only way to treat severely burnt hair is to cut it off so avoid this by taking the same precautions you would with your skin and cover up in the hottest hours of the sun, especially if your at the beach!



TIP 3 
Going for a swim? To avoid your hair taking in to much chlorine or salt water, simply dampen your hair before hand. Hair can only soak up a certain amount of moisture, so by wetting it first you prevent taking in some nasties! Also always rinse your hair throughly afterwards! To help remove build up of chlorine and to help protect your hair from UV damage L'anza's Swim and Sun range is a must have for your holiday bag.



TIP 4
Deep condition your hair at least once a week. A moisturising conditioner will be best this time of year.


TIP 5
Treat your hair gently in the summer, get it cut/ trimmed more regularly, use good products and your hair will look fantastic this season and be healthy too!


Keep looking fabulous!
