It's summer curlfriends! And although we love to soak up the rays and have fun in the sun, we can't forget to care for our very delicate curls. We have collated a list of 5 easy summer curl hacks to ensure your curls are protected while having that much deserved fun in the sun!

Summer curl culprit #1: UVA/UVB exposure

 Harsh UV rays can literally bake the moisture out of your curls.

Curl symptoms include:

  • Dry curls
  • Faded hair colour
  • Sudden split ends
  • Weakened hair shaft

Solution

Summer curl culprit #2: Harsh water

Chlorinated, hard and seawater all have drying effects on our hair due to its components of minerals and chemicals.

Curl symptoms include:

  • Disrupted internal moisture balance
  • Faded hair colour
  • Coarse textured curls

Solution

    • Generously apply the Citrus Superfruit Radiance Oil to your hair to coat the hair shaft and create a protective layer. Twist hair up in individual sections and get ready to go to the beach!

Summer curl culprit #3: Temperature extremes 1

British weather can exceed the norm and when that happens, it's great, but not when your scalp has to suffer.

Scalp symptoms include:

  • Itchy scalp
  • Heat lumps on the scalp
  • Minor swelling
  • Sweating from the scalp

Solution

  • You can use it as often as needed during the week

Summer curl culprit #4: Temperature extremes 2

Hot weather can irritate the scalp, cause excess sweat and increase sebum production.

Scalp symptoms include:

  • Excess build-up
  • Gunky roots
  • Heaviness from build-up

Solution

  • Rich in Vitamin C - you can expect a balanced, invigorated scalp

Summer curl culprit #5: Excessive sun exposure

Been out in the sun all day? Curls feel frazzled and have zero moisture left?

Scalp symptoms include:

  • Extremely dry curls
  • Extreme frizz
  • Curls don't soak up product/water well
  • Extremely coarse texture

Solution

    • As soon as you get home from the beach, cleanse your curls with fresh water and follow up with this ultra-hydrating Rose Water Cream Conditioner. Leave on for 15 - 30 minutes

We hope this has helped you out! Now, get your beach bag ready with these protective, hydrating and nourishing products and enjoy the summer sun!
