“You can’t get dressed without good hair.” – Rachel Zoe FEATURED ARTICLE: SUMMER HAIR RESCUE With summer upon us (thank goodness), we naturally want our locks to look their best. While basking in the glorious sun this season, don’t forget to keep your crowning glory from getting damaged. This issue features hair rescue tips that will help minimize summer hair damage while also looking your best. Here are a few tips. Start in the Shower. Choose a shampoo and conditioner that is hydrating. This means it contains ingredients that will nourish your hair like bio-diverse Hydramine sea Complex. We recommend Joico Moisture Recovery. It is said to be able to transform even the most parched hair into a vision of softness and manageability. Remember that hair in warm weather will tend to get oilier faster which leads people to shampoo more frequently. This however can strip the hair of its natural moisture. To absorb excess oil without having to wash, try an invisible dry shampoo like Quantam Micro-V. Try UV Shielding Products. UV rays are not only harmful to your skin. Just as we lather on the sunscreen, we can protect our hair from damaging UV rays by using specialized hair products. When used, they help prevent coloured/highlighted hair from fading and looking dry and brittle. Remember these products are best used in on damp hair for proper absorption. Try Humidity Rx Anti-Frizz Weather Proof Spray. Prep before you Get Wet. Be sure to prep your hair preswim. This means that before you make the big leap into the pool or ocean this summer, wet or spray your hair with tap water. This simple step will help saturate your hair with fresh water keeping your hair from absoring as much chlorine or salt water. If you are in need of a fix, try a clarifying shampoo to remove residues and build up. Gentle Brushing is Key. Hair is at its most fragile when it’s wet. After that refreshing dip in the pool, don’t forget to be gentle while brushing wet hair to prevent breakage. You can also use detanglers like Colour Proof Pure Release Instant Detangler. And don’t forget we sell the Wet Brush! The Wet Brush has special bristles that glide through chlorine and salt filled hair with ease. It’s perfect for all hair
