As a consequence of dry hair and a humid environment, frizz is a common problem that can sneak up on any style during the summer months. While certain hair types and texture patterns are more prone than others, the fix stems from the same solutions. Whether travelling this summer or sticking close to home take a peek at a few of our top tips to achieve the ideal summer style sans frizz.
HYDRATE
While frizz is an effect of humidity, the reason why it happens in the first place is due to the lack of moisture in the hair. By improving the condition of your hair, mainly by increasing the hydration factor, you will find hair becomes shiny and smooth, and natural texture more defined. An obvious choice for adding more hydration to your hair daily is HYDRATE-ME.WASH + RINSE + MASQUE. This system features Vitamin A, E and C to lock in moisture and create a soft silky feel and Hydrolysed Silk Extracts to create an instantly smooth surface on each strand. By regularly shampooing, conditioning and applying deep conditioning treatments from this range, you’ll notice improvement throughout the year and especially during those humid summer months.
DEFINE
Based on your hair type (straight, wavy, curly or coily) and desired style (air-dried, heat-styled, smooth, waved or curled), you’ll need to pick a specific product routine to get the finished look.
