Protect Hair From the Sun:

The intense UV rays can harm your hair, similar to how they affect your skin. But fear not! In this article, we’ll provide you with 10 essential hair care tips to ensure your locks remain healthy, strong, and lustrous throughout the summer.

UV damage strips your hair of natural oils, leading to dryness and frizz. 

Combat this by using products like the Davines SU range, specifically formulated to reduce the effects of UV damage.

The SU Hair & Body Wash, SU Milk, and SU Hair Mask are perfect additions to your summer hair care routine.

Avoid Excessive Heat:

Excessive heat from styling tools can cause your hair to lose moisture and become less resilient.

Minimize the use of hot tools during summer and opt for wet styling methods instead. When using styling tools, always apply a thermal protector like Davines MELU spray to shield your hair from heat damage.

2

Wash Less Frequently:

Over-washing can strip your hair and scalp of natural oils, resulting in dryness, dandruff, and breakage.

Choose highly moisturizing shampoos like Davines MOMO, and consider co-washing with conditioners like the award-winning MOMO Conditioner or LOVE Curl Cleansing Cream for wavy/curly hair.

3

Keep Yourself Hydrated:

Hydrating your hair starts from within, so make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day.

Stay hydrated, especially when exposed to the sun.

Proper hydration promotes hair growth and prevents dullness, frizz, and brittleness.

Don’t Skip a Trim:

Maintain Healthy Hair All Year Round! Kick off every season with a fresh trim to keep your hair looking its best. We recommend getting a trim every six to eight weeks for optimal hair health and maintenance. Regular trims play a crucial role in preventing split ends from worsening and spreading further up the hair shaft. By removing the damaged ends, you can stop split ends in their tracks, helping your hair remain healthy and free from breakage. Split ends can make your hair look frizzy and dull, so getting regular trims is essential for reducing frizz and maintaining a smooth, polished look. Not only do trims help in preventing split ends, but they also contribute to improving the overall texture of your hair.

Protect Your Color:

UV radiation, chlorine, and saltwater can fade and damage colored hair.

Keep your color vibrant by covering it with a hat or scarf and using products like the Davines MINU range.

Wash with MINU Shampoo and treat with MINU color-protecting treatment mask for optimal color preservation

6

Deep-Conditioning Treatment:

Combat summer dryness and frizz with deep-conditioning treatments.

Unlike regular conditioners, deep conditioners repair hair from the inside out.

Use products like Davines Renewing Conditioning Treatment or Nourishing Vegetarian Miracle Conditioner to restore moisture and vitality to your hair.

7

Pull Your Hair Back:

During summer, opt for loose, breezy updos that keep your hair away from your face and neck, allowing your scalp to breathe.

Try beachy braids or accessorized ponytails for stylish and practical options.

8

Use a Hair Serum:

Protect your hair from environmental factors by using a hair serum.

A hair serum coats the hair shaft and acts as a barrier against extreme heat, sun, and pollution.

For colored hair, Davines MINU Hair Serum offers protection and helps maintain vibrant color.

9

Book a Salon Treatment:

Even with diligent care, summer activities can still take a toll on your hair.

Book a treatment with your Davines hairdresser to address any damage caused by sun, chlorine, or other factors specific to your summer routines.
