Tips for Beating that Post-Summer Look

Not happy about how your post summer hair feels? Hair can only take so much abuse from swimming in chlorinated pools. Salty seawater can wreak havoc on your locks and your hair color. Bright summer sun and extended UV exposure can dull your hair and make it look brittle or dry.

With that in mind, here are some helpful tips for making your summer hair vibrant again:

Step #1
Invest in a pool/seawater shampoo. My favorite is the Malibu line.

Step #2
Then use a clarifier like Unite Weekender or Neuma Reneu.

Follow that up by choosing one of the above and then shampoo. Be sure to leave in your hair for at least 2-3 minutes to make sure the product is getting through the layers of build-up.

Step #3
You then want to follow this up with a moisturizing deep conditioner.

Step #4
As an added bonus, you can get a leave-in conditioner. My personal favorite is Unite 7 Seconds.

I take it everywhere! I even put it in my beach bag and apply it while my hair is dry and wet with my “wet brush”.

It’s good to note that it has UV and thermal protection – very important for healthy hair!

Insider Tip: When you get done with your water activities, be sure to rinse and/or wash your hair as soon as possible.

Follow these tips and you’ll have your post summer hair looking vibrant, healthy, and ready for Fall!
