Protecting Your Hair From The Summer Sun

DermOrganic | Sulfate Free | Protecting & Repairing Summer Sun DamageGo Sulfate Free - Sulfates work to break down grease in the hair, making dirty and oil easy to wash away. However, it also tends to break down your hair's natural oils, which can cause it to dry out. Having natural oils means naturally beautiful hair! So, which sulfate free Shampoo/Conditioner combo do I use? I flock to DermOrganic! All of their products are argan-oil infused and sulfate free.

Glo Essentials Extreme Heat Protecting Serum | Skincare by Alana | Protecting & Repairing Summer Sun DamageProtect Yourself From The Heat - Using hot tools to style your hair can produce a fabulous finish, but it also causes damage that is irreversible. I always recommend using a heat-protecting spray or serum. One of my personal favorites is Glo-Essentials Extreme Heat-Protecting Serum. It gives you a double dose, strengthening and protecting your hair against the heat of your hot tools, as well as environmental damage!

I am a huge fan of Sexy Hair's Reinvent Color Care Treatment. Not only does this fabulous treatment protect your hair from the sun, it also makes it incredibly soft! You may use this product even if you hair is not color treated. Another alternative would be the chemical-free Saving Face Sun Cover. This fun cover up looks like a scarf, but delivers UPF 50 protection. I love that it is lightweight, breathable, and comes in a variety of fun colors and patterns. This is definitely always in my summer bag!

DermOrganic Argan Oil Masque Conditioner | Skincare by Alana | Protecting & Repair Summer Sun DamageDeep Condition - This is yet another thing that should be done year-round! I like setting aside one day a week to deep condition my hair . Again, I turn to DermOrganic for their Argan Oil Masque Conditioner. This deep conditioner can be used as ofter or as little as needed, and is safe for daily use.

Moroccan Agadir Miracle Oil | Skincare by Alana | Protecting & Repairing Summer Sun DamageEmbrace Leave In Oils - I am a huge huge fan of leave in oils for your hair.
