  Summer had set in and it is time of the year you need to take extra care of your hair and scalp, to make your mane looks at its very best. Excessive exposure to the sun will damage your hair’s natural shield. Studies prove those three days of sun exposure makes the cells of hair shaft fragile, making your mane look dry, fragile and brittle.

   

  Effects of summer on your Hair

  Hair may get burnt in the hot sun and change its natural colour. Even coloured hair starts to fade away if you are spending long-time outdoors. Summers can be hard on your scalp making it dry and it even hurts the hair roots. Excessive perspiration and dust during summer increase hair issues like dandruff, split ends, fizziness and hair fall.

   

  Hair Care Tips To Beat Summer

  Limit Cosmetics

  Summers naturally dry your mane out and damage them. So, ensure you go easy on any chemical based hair procedures during this time. Avoid colouring your hair. If at all you want to get your hair coloured  do it a month before the summer hits.

   

  Shampoo with Care

  Too much washing your hair with shampoo will cause more harm

  Than good as it dries your scalp and hair more. If you sweat more on the scalp and hair gets greasy. Prefer a mild shampoo that is good for summers. Shampoo only on the scalp, not on the hair directly to prevent drying them out.

  Invest In conditioners

  Choose proper hair conditioners that can contain sunscreen to

  Shield your hair from harmful UV rays. As the sun dries out your mane, ensure you hydrate your hair and usher life in it by picking a rinse-out conditioner. Go for one that suits your hair type and nature. If you are going for a swim, wear a swimming cap and use a leave-in conditioner on your hair.

  Control Frizz

  The hot summer makes your mane extra dry, making it look frizzy.

  Try minimizing your hair from becoming too frizzy by tying it up. Style your hair from braids to ponytails to knots and buns. This ensures the reduction of sweat on the scalp.

  Plenty of Fluids

  You may be doing all of these to guard your hair against the sun, but if you are not adequately hydrated, it’s not worth the trouble. Your mane will get largely benefitted from drinking water and other fluids, thus keeping you cool and maintaining your hair healthy and well hydrated. Furthermore, add more fresh fruits and vegetables in your regular diet to get all essential nutrients.
