Summer curly hair care: how to take care of your curls in the hottest season

Summer is always a tough period for our curls: sun, salt, chlorine ... But this does not mean your curls cannot shine even in this season! Here is our best advice to keep your curls healthy, strong and shiny at any time.

Do not wash them too often

Even if they look more dirty than they usually are, try not to wash your curls more than twice, three times a week at most: frequent washing weakens your hair, making it more brittle and exposed to harmful agents!

A tip: to keep your hair clean, yet soft and nourished at the same time, try with the co-wash method - which means washing your hair without using any shampoo, applying just a hint of Soothing Conditioner on your lengths (not on the roots!), to nourish your curls and eliminate frizz.

Forget about the hair dryer

If possible, try to eliminate (or at least to minimize) the use of your hair dryer: take advantage of summer heat to let your curls dry in the open air - otherwise, dry them with the plopping method.

Always protect your curls

At any time, most of all when you go the beach or to the swimming pool, don't forget to protect your hair with some Solar Oli with UV filter: its formula is specifically studied to be very light on your curls and to be easily absorbed, and it does not only protect your hair against damages due to sun, chlorine, salt and saltiness, but thanks to its natural oils it also deeply nourishes your curls, keeping them soft and preventing brittleness and frizz.

A tip: when you go the beach or to the swimming pool, bring your Solar Oil with you, and apply it again every time your hair gets wet!

Immediately remove residuals

Every time you get your hair wet in the sea or in the swimming pool, immediately rinse your curls with plenty of clean water, in order to remove salt, sand and chlorine residuals, so to prevent brittleness and dryness usually caused by these harmful agents

Cuddle your curls

Besides protecting your curls, it is fundamental for you to take care of their natural health: once a week apply the Nourishing Mask, in order to keep your curls well nourished and moisturized, and twice a month apply the Restoring Pre-Shampoo Mask, in order to restore them and keep them healthy and strong.

Your curls will be perfect, all summer long!
