You all know that summertime equals face scrubs, anti-sweat deodorants and copious amounts of sunscreen. But what about your hair? As the sun beats down, it’s time to lavish some TLC on your strands as well. Dryness, dandruff, split ends and sunburn are common summer complaints and starting your hair care routine with the right mix of products is the way to go.

    1. Start by cleansing and conditioning right

    The first step to healthy strands is picking a shampoo that works for your hair type. The ideal formula will remove dirt, oil and grime but put back moisture so that hair feels soft and silky. Choosing an over harsh formula in hot weather can lead to scalp problems like itchiness and dryness. You might want to reserve one shampoo like Matrix Opti Smooth Straight Smoothing Shampoo Shea Butter for daily use and pick another moisturizing formula like Biotique Bio Soya Protein Fresh Nourishing Shampoo when you’re on holiday and out in the sun. Using a conditioner is equally important. Choose a formula like Toni&Guy Nourish: Conditioner For Dry Hair or Tresemme Beauty Full Volume Conditioner to supply your strands the moisture and nutrients they need and chances are you’ll return from vacation with a silkier head of hair than what you sported before the holiday!

    2. Check out ingredients when you shop hair products

    Don’t let the price fool you. The most expensive hair products are not necessarily the best. While shopping for summer ready hair products look for ingredients that soothe, calm and condition. Some of the top performing ingredients including Keratin, Panthenol, AloeVera, Carnitine, Ceramide, Glycerin, Collagen, Silk Proteins and Mint will keep your crowning glory softer, fresher and hydrated for longer. Shop around for brands like Fabindia Aloe Vera Shampoo Value Pack, Himalaya Herbals Damage Repair Protein Shampoo and Pantene Pro-V Total Damage Care Shampoo.

    3. Everyone needs a boost now and then

    The sun beats down on your head and while you protect your skin—if you’re particular about your complexion—your hair and scalp can take a beating. So what you need is specialized booster treatments designed to replace lost moisture. Use a mask once or twice a week to restore life and bounce to tired, dried out strands. Typically masks are formulated to reach where ordinary shampoos and conditioners can’t because they’re infused with extra nutrients. Many of these are fuss-free formulas that you can apply to freshly shampooed hair and leave on for a few minutes before you rinse them out without impinging too much on your normal routine.

    4. Fit in a scalp massage now and then

    Every time you go for a trim to your local salon, sit back and enjoy a scalp rejuvenating massage to revive and hydrate dry, itchy skin that bears the brunt of sun and sweat. Besides, a scalp massage can be infinitely relaxing and who knows you might catch forty winks comfortably ensconced in the barber’s chair! Take your pick of Khadi Natural Shikakai Herbal Hair Oil or Kama Ayurveda Extra Virgin Organic Coconut Oil

    5. Mind your styling ps and qs

    If you’re used to applying gel or pomade to style your strands, remember that summer heat can exaggerate the shine and texture enhancing ingredients of your usual formula. Therefore, it’s important that you use less than their usual quantity so that your strands don’t look over-greasy or over-styled. A good idea is to switch from heavier pomade formulations to lighter mousse-cream or serum formulations to keep your hair under control. Take your pick of Truefitt and Hill Hair Management Styling Wax, Gatsby Water Gloss Soft Hair Gel or Mojo Hair Styling Cream. Start with a small pea sized amount because a little goes a long way. If you prefer wax formulas, summers are usually not the right time to use them because sun exposure can melt them and cause your hair style to fall flat.
Finally, the most important summer hair care routine starts from within. Make sure to get your fill of salads, fresh, juicy fruits and vegetables. Also drink adequate water to nourish and moisturize your strands inside out.
