Doesn’t the summer just have a way of making your hair do the OPPOSITE of what you want it to? You want it to be perfectly curled, and it falls flat. You want it to be smooth and straight, and it frizzes up. There is no doubt about it, the summer heat is hard on your hair. I want to share a few ways to keep your hair lush in the summer heat. If you’d like to hear more, keep reading below!

Protect Against Sun

First of all, you need to keep your locks protected! I love using the Schwarzkopf Gliss™ Color Guard products, especially in the summer. First of all, it helps to protect your colored hair, which helps from fading, but it also have UVA/UVB blockers that can protect your natural hair from the sun as well.

I use the Schwarzkopf Gliss™ Color Guard Shampoo, then follow up with the Schwarzkopf Gliss™ Color Guard Express Repair Conditioner. They smell amazing, they make my hair feel clean, natural, and smooth, and they protect against the harmful Sun’s rays.

Protect Against Heat Damage

Another way to keep your hair luscious in the summer is to limit the amount of excess heat you’re putting on your hair. The sun is bad enough, but pairing that with daily blow drying or styling with a hot tool is not great! Here are a few suggestions for limiting heat styling:

• Let your hair air dry
• Put your hair in an up-do. (A simple pony tail or messy bun will do!)
• Wear a braid for fashion.
• Wear braids to bed for texture to your hair in the morning.
• Use foam curlers instead of hot curlers.
• Style your hair only ONCE in the week instead of daily.

Repair Damage

Like with any repair, it’s going to take time, but with the right products in place, you can begin to work on your hair’s health! Gliss™ products are designed and tested to deliver measurable results that have been proven in repairing hair, whether the damage is from styling, coloring, activity, or the nature of the hair itself. I use the Schwarzkopf Gliss™ Color Guard Express Repair Conditioner. The liquid Keratin reconstructs your hair and renews it by repairing damaged areas deep inside the hair and on its surface. It makes it instantly combable, which is is nice, because sometimes the brushing and combing is what makes the damage!

I like using this product after using the Color Guard Shampoo and Conditioner for best results. Again, the purpose is protection and the anti-frizzing is an added bonus! It makes my hair look shiner, healthier, and the no frizz thing is a great positive.
