Mia Incs Essential Summer Hair Care Tips
# Use summer hair care products with natural UV protection.
The summer heat tends to leave the pores of the skin and scalp open, allowing for further absorption of ingredients in hair products – so make sure your hair and body are absorbing the good stuff.
# Wear a hat/hair scarf
A great summer hair care tip is to opt for a hat/hair scarf. They help the hair retain moisture & provides the scalp with further UV protection that may be hard to obtain just through summer hair care products. The scalp regulates sebum (your hair’s natural oils), it is very important to ensure your scalp is adequately protected.
# Wear hair in summer braids & gentle up-dos
Messy braids & gentle up-dos will keep the hair from further UV exposure & add another layer of protection for the scalp. Don’t worry about them being perfect – the laid back nature of these summer hairstyles will embrace the natural elements of summer & look fabulous!
# Wash hair right after exposure
Whether it be after a nice dip in the pool or at the beach, it’s a good idea to wash your hair right after exposure. This will eliminate further UV damage, and wash away any impurities that could stay on the hair. However, when we say wash the hair, we don’t necessarily mean use shampoo. Rinse your hair. Cutting back on shampoo will actually allow your scalp’s oil production to re-balance itself, which is extra important for moisture during summertime weather.
# Eliminate mean green pool hair
Everyday exposure to chlorinated swimming pools can be very damaging to your hair. Although it can happen to men & women with shades of natural/colored blonde are prone to chlorine damage & discoloration.
Mia Inc recommends: wet the hair & put in a leave-in conditioner prior to going to the pool. If you do not have a leave-in conditioner, you can use a regular conditioner, as well.
# Deep conditioning treatments
Summer hair ailments like dryness and split-ends can be helped with the inclusion of deep conditioning treatments.
