Summer is here, so is summer hair. The sun is blazing. And it’s time to get serious about your hair and scalp health. Heat, chlorine, saltwater, and sun exposure can compromise your scalp’s hydration barrier, leading to dryness, flakiness, or even excess oil production. But don’t worry; our friends at Divi Scalp & Hair Health have some insider tips to help you keep a cool head.
Let’s dive into some summer hair- and scalp-care tips.
Keep Your Locks Hydrated & Protected
Sadly, heat styling and UV rays are not your summer hair, or scalp’s friend. Keep your hair hydrated, tangle-free, and protected with Divi’s 3-in-1 Leave-In Conditioner. Made with olive-derived squalane, antioxidants, and amino acids, this lightweight formula detangles, hydrates and protects the hair from heat damage up to 450°F.
Minimize Heat Styling
That effortless beachy look is attainable. Just go easy on the heat styling. Excessive blow drying, straightening, or curling can damage the hair. Instead, opt for an easy, laid-back summer look and try air drying. Incorporate Divi’s 3-in-1 Leave-In Conditioner to keep your hair looking soft and manageable.
Stay Trim
Regular trims are not just a trend but the secret to shiny, hydrated hair. They help remove dead ends that can make hair look dull and unhealthy. So, take it easy this summer, but don’t forget to get a trim. It’s a simple yet effective step towards maintaining healthy hair. Maybe it’s time to consider that jaw-length bob. It’s one of summer’s trendiest cuts and looks great on all ages and stages.
Shampoo With Smarts
Shampooing hair too frequently can lead to a dry scalp and hair, and since we all shower more regularly when it’s hot, take heed. Divi’s Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner is formulated to cleanse without stripping your hair of its natural oils, also adding volume and bounce, just in time for those summer soirees and extra sweat and humidity. (Also available in travel sizes for sunny weekends away.) Pro tip: Extend time between washes with Divi’s Dry Shampoo. The breakthrough spray-on formula absorbs oil on-the-go and keeps unwashed hair from falling flat.
Cover Up Your Summer Hair
Protect your hair and highlights from harmful UV rays with a chic scarf, cap, or wide hat. Don’t forget to use sunscreen on your hair and scalp for extra protection. It helps prevent burns, signs of aging, and damage from harmful rays.
Nourish Your Scalp
When it comes to the overall health of your hair, scalp care is finally having a moment in the sun. We recommend Divi’s Scalp Serum, a non-greasy formula packed with amino acids, caffeine, and tea tree oil. This product helps improve the appearance of thinning hair, nourishes the scalp, and reduces product and oil buildup, ensuring your scalp stays healthy and your hair looks its best.
Supplement Your Style
Lastly, remember that healthy hair starts from within. Divi’s Hair Vitamins Trio, with a unique blend of vitamins and minerals and our exclusive Divi Roots-9 Complex, works from the inside out, providing optimal hair nourishment. The Divi Roots-9 Complex is a proprietary blend of nine natural ingredients that promote hair health and growth, including biotin, saw palmetto, and horsetail extract. Oh, and pro tip: according to Prevention, eating fatty fish like salmon is great for shine, strawberries help support growth, and leafy greens like spinach can help reduce the effect of free oxygen radicals on hair, which can cause oxidative stress and affect hair growth.
