The Best Products for Curly Hair in Summer
Sunshine, humidity and heat, not to even mention chlorinated or salty water, all play havoc with curly hair. However, you can still keep your hair looking its best by switching up your Summer hair routine a little. These are the rules we swear by:
1. Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Strengthen & Restore Treatment Masque 355ml
The number 1 rule for curly hair is to keep it hydrated and moisturised. It helps to add shine, define curls, prevent breakage and calm frizz.
Ingredients to look for are amino acids, vitamins and natural oils like Shea Butter or Jojoba Oil. Add them into every step of your haircare routine and for extra TLC, give yourself a hydrating mask every weekn.
We love: The Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Strengthen, Grow & Restore Treatment Masque thanks to its intensely hydrating ingredients.
5. Aveda Sun Care Protective Hair Veil 100ml
You hair takes a battering with sunshine and for curly hair, it can mean even more dehydration, dullness and frizz.
This means that making sure you spritz your hair (wet or dry) with a hydrating and protective mist is essential in Summer.
We love: The Aveda Sun Care Protective Hair Veil, thanks to its nourishing blend of Shea, Vitamin E and Green Tea Extract.
6. Redken Curvaceous Full Swirl Cream Serum 150ml
Frizz-free hair is all about finding the balance between hydration and control. Once your hair is hydrated, then you can start adding in products to control.
Styling gels and serums can add a little extra shape as well as holding frizz at bay, making them a great final step in your haircare routine.
We love: The Redken Curvaceous Full Swirl Cream Serum, which contains moisturisers within a medium hold gel serum.
Major fan of scented candles, Make Up brushes and Highlighter. I’m always on the hunt for those Holy Grail products and my dressing table is covered in more beauty products than I like to admit. As an adopted Northerner originally from Brighton, I spend most my days wondering what all this rain is about. My hair isn’t grateful for the move.
