10 Summer Hair Hacks from South Hill Salon

When it comes to summer hair, we all want something fast and easy. 

We also want to protect our hair from the sun, wind, and harsh chemicals
​that usually go along with this hot and humid season. 

Here are a few things that you can do to keep your hair healthy and manageable during the summer heat:

1. Tie your hair back in a high pony, loose bun, or braid.  Release it later for soft waves.
2. Rinse your hair before dipping into the pool or ocean as your strands can fill up with fresh water first.
3. Wear a hat or use sunscreen for your hair.  You can actually dilute regular sunscreen and mist it over your scalp.
4.  Keep your ends trimmed to avoid splitting.
5. Playing sports?  Keep your hair back with a flexible wire scarf or terry sweat band.
6. Steer clear of hair products containing harsh chemicals like alcohol that can really dry out your hair.
7. Cut down on your weekly washings and be sure to rinse with cool water.
8. Hydrate your hair with moisturizing products and oils designed to keep the natural curl and cut the frizzies.
9. Avoid the blow dryer--let your hair air dry instead.  Use the curling iron only if you must.
10. Choose a brush and comb that is just right for your hair.  Treat each lock like a strand of silk!
