On hot days, hair needs special care. Dust, scorching sun, heat, styling with hot appliances. And even in the warm season, we dye our hair more often than in winter, because we go without hats and want our hairstyle to be in perfect order. In general, the hair gets to the full extent.
In the summer, my hair does not behave very well: it quickly gets greasy, does not hold the styling, and yet the scalp does not always feel well. I propose to chat today about summer care - I will share my secrets and will be glad to read about yours in the comments.
Sun protection
I don't really like hats. But I try not to walk for a long time under the scorching sun without a panama or a cap on hot days.
My hair is not too thick, and my scalp instantly burns - once I spent all day on the beach without a panama and got a sunburn. Then the skin was red for several days and ached. Now, if you have to be in the sun for a long time, I always take a hat with me. And this summer, the cap is generally the main trend of 2021! Sometimes fashion is useful :)
Less touches
Everyone probably knows about this, but the bad habit of constantly touching your hair really makes it stale twice as fast. In the summer, they get dirty quickly, and if we unconsciously pull at them every now and then - wind the strands on our fingers, touch the scalp - then we aggravate the situation. I'm trying to control myself, but now I'm writing an article, and my hands are still reaching for my hair. I quickly remember and pull myself back :)
Proper cleansing
I remember once, while traveling in Thailand, I went to a local salon for styling. The master did not wash my hair before styling, but literally washed my hair. It seemed to me that my head had been in the hairdresser's wash for ages :) The skin of such high-quality cleansing has never been seen: a Thai woman has not she only soaped abundantly, but also massaged her, and these were not just light sliding movements, but a full-fledged massage with shampoo.
The hair was then crystal clear for three days, the root volume was kept the same. And then I realized that before that I had simply in vain harassed the shampoo and had never really washed my head. Now I also massage the skin well and be sure to soap it twice.
In general, we often buy all sorts of shampoos for split ends or for hair shine, but we forget about the scalp. After all, the first thing the right shampoo should do is to cleanse it. And taking care of the length and ends is already masks, balms and conditioners.
I like the shampoo from the Russian brand Pentakan. I use it for the second summer. It works specifically with the scalp: it restores the natural balance, helps fight dandruff and has sebum-regulating properties.
The shampoo was developed by scientists from the Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. It contains a unique extract of sea cucumbers ("sea cucumbers") - these marine inhabitants are famous for their high regenerative abilities.
I love the way this shampoo cleanses the hair - it makes the roots look cleaner and stay fresh longer. And I don't expect more from shampoo :) I ordered it a couple of times atthe official website of the brand, and for the last time - on Yandex. Market.
Do you adjust your hair care in the summer or do you use the same products all year round?
Thank you for visiting the channel.
