Whether this summer has you sunbathing at the beach, attending festivals or just enjoying time outdoors, fun in the sun can definitely put stress on your hair. For instance, hair can be scorched by harsh rays, and as a result leaves dry, brittle tresses, or even itchy, red scalp. Since staying indoors all season is not an option, we have listed steps to keep your hair healthy and summer ready. After all, you cannot let the warm weather interfere with your style.
Sun Protection
In addition to damaging your skin, the sun’s rays can damage your hair. Prolonged exposure to the sun’s UVA and UVB rays can damage hair strands significantly, especially if you have color-treated hair. To minimize damage, make sure to use hair products with UV protection. Phyto Plage Protective Sun Veil features SPF for your hair. It protects hair and guards color from UV damage and environmental stress in a non-greasy mist.
Wear a wide brimmed hat, to the pool or beach to protect your hair and scalp while you lounge in the sun. Wallaroo Hats keep your skin and scalp safe.

Get A Trim
Hair grows between 10-15 % faster during the summer months. Regular trims minimize damage from split ends and is an effective way to revive dry, sun- damaged hair and to stimulate new growth.
Protect Hair Before And After Swimming
Pool chemicals, and salt water strip away all the natural oils on your hair leaving it dry and brittle. Phytoplage L’Original Protective Sun Oil is great for anyone with dry or damaged hair that has been subjected to chlorine or salt water. Use it before or during sun exposure. It involves enriched oils from an anti-dehydration screen that protect hair and color leaving a sexy wet look while it nourishes your hair. After swimming, wash hair with a hydrating shampoo. Phyto Plage Shampoo gently washes away sand, salt and chlorine from hair leaving it deeply moisturized and soft.
Hydrate
Take care of your hair from the inside and out. Start by drinking plenty of water. Water is a key ingredient that supports vitamins. It staves off dehydration, and energizes the nerve endings to enhance the natural vitality of the skin and hair roots. Taking a biotin supplement will also aid in healthy summer hair.

To keep hair hydrated, use moisturizing conditioners and styling products that keep hair sleek and manageable. Treat your hair to a deep condition once a week.
