Three Summertime Tips for Long Hair

Summer care for long hairHair fashion goes in phases, from short to long. Right now, long hair is definitely in style, and many women are choosing to leave their tresses flowing and natural-looking. If you’re among these women, you probably already know that taking care of long hair is a bit different from taking care of medium-length or short hair. This is even truer in the summer, when you’re exposing your hair to all kinds of extra environmental stressors.

Here are a few tips to keep your long locks looking healthy all summer long.

1. Protect your hair from sun and wind. Sun can damage your hair just like it can your skin, and wind can cause a couple of problems. It can dry your hair out, and it can also cause it to get super tangled, which could result in breakage and frizz. When you go out in the sun, use a leave-in conditioner with special hair sunscreen in it. Also, put your hair up under a scarf or loose-fitting hat to protect it from the wind.

2. Don’t wash your hair every day. Dryness can be a huge problem for summertime hair. If you wash your hair every day, this will get even worse. If your scalp gets oily, simply rub some shampoo into your roots before rinsing it. Do this instead of a full shampoo at least every other day for the healthiest possible long hair.

3. Keep that chlorine out of your hair if possible. Chlorine in pools is incredibly damaging to long hair, and if you’re a blonde, it might even turn your hair green! Protect your hair from chlorine in the first place by using a swimming cap if you’re going to be in the water for a while. If you don’t use a cap, get your hair saturated with fresh water before getting in the pool, as it will absorb less chlorinated water, and then wash it with a special chlorine-kicking shampoo after you swim.

Favorite summer hair care products include: Alterna, Phyto and Goldwell.
