As the summer sun blazes on, our hair often bears the brunt of the heat, leaving it feeling dry, frizzy, and sometimes even damaged. Whether it’s the UV rays, chlorine from the pool, or saltwater from the beach, summer can take a toll on your locks. But don’t worry—at MySkinShop UK, we’re here to share some expert tips on summer haircare to keep your hair looking fabulous all season long.
Common Summer Haircare Challenges
In the summer, one of the most common hair complaints we hear is about dryness. It’s no surprise, with the sun’s UV rays working overtime to strip moisture from our hair. If you’re finding your hair is a little frazzled and lacking its usual shine, it’s probably time to pay attention to how you’re protecting and nourishing it.
Frizz is another summer hair nemesis, often caused by the mix of humidity and sun exposure. The outer layer of our hair opens up, allowing moisture to seep in and create that all-too-familiar frizzy look. Add in chlorine and saltwater, and you’ve got a recipe for some seriously stressed tresses.
Our Secret Weapons for Summer Haircare
At MySkinShop UK, we love the Color WOW Summer Hair Care Bundle. It’s designed to tackle these very issues, from dryness to frizz, and guess what? It’s currently discounted! So, if you’re looking for a summer saviour, this is a great place to start.
But that’s not all. If you’ve noticed your hair thinning or experiencing more hair loss than usual, summer is the perfect time to give your hair a boost with AMALIAN Hair Booster. It works wonders by increasing the number of hair follicles in their active growth phase, helping you keep your hair thick and healthy.
For those looking for a celebrity-approved solution, Viviscal Professional is a must-try. This is the go-to supplement for hair growth, and it’s stronger than the version you’ll find at Holland & Barrett. Many celebrities swear by Viviscal for maintaining their lush locks, and we recommend it if you’re serious about hair restoration.
Expert Tips to Protect Your Hair This Summer
- Cover Up: When you’re out in the sun, a stylish hat or scarf can protect your hair from harmful UV rays. You can also use a UV protection spray, which is perfect if you’d rather show off your locks while keeping them safe.
- Stay Hydrated: Both inside and out! Drinking plenty of water will keep your hair hydrated from within, while using moisturising shampoos, conditioners, and leave-in treatments will lock in external moisture. This combination will ensure your hair remains soft and shiny all summer long.
- Deep Conditioning: Make deep conditioning treatments a weekly ritual to nourish your hair and repair any summer damage. A good treatment can help replenish lost moisture and restore your hair’s natural balance.
Post-Swim Haircare
Whether you’ve been swimming in a pool or the ocean, your hair will need some extra love. Chlorine and saltwater are notorious for stripping your hair of its natural oils. We recommend using a clarifying shampoo to remove any residue, followed by a rich conditioning mask, like Cliniccare Energizing Hair Conditioner and Shampoo, to restore moisture and vitality.
Styling Without the Heat
Summer is the perfect time to give your hot tools a break. Embrace heat-free styling to avoid further damage. Try effortless styles like braids, buns, or loose waves that not only look chic but also protect your hair from the summer heat.
Maintaining Vibrant Hair Colour
If your hair is colour-treated, summer can make it fade faster due to sun exposure and chlorine. Products like Color WOW Extra Strength Dream Coat are perfect for protecting and locking in that vibrant shade, so you can keep rocking your favourite hair colour all summer long.
