Great products for summer hair
I love swimming!
Yes – I am a true Piscean ala fish – if there is water, count on me in it and watch the mermaid scales start to come back one by one.
This summer will be no different for a ‘brand’ new mommy; I will spend equal parts at the beach and pool while I work on the phone and chill. Yes, there is a Santa Claus.
No need to worry about your hair or maintaining a style – simply invest in amazing moisturizing products and don’t be afraid to cook up a few recipes in the kitchen.
Karen’s summer essential hair products:
1) Organic Coconut oil: Great for a deep conditioner after swimming and excellent daily moisturizer. Shampoo and wash weekly since there will be build up.
2) Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Will work miracles after chlorine – wash hair with a great moisturizing shampoo (I use Pantene for natural and relaxed hair) then add the olive oil put on a plastic cap to seal in the moisture.
3) Jane Carter Solutions Revitalizing Leave-In-Conditioner: simply amazing for all textures and perfect for the summer frizzes and heat.
4) Alberto V05 – Moisturizing Conditioner: A miracle for $.99 and not only will your hair feel soft it will smell like grandma’s homemade cookies.
Enjoy each moment of the summer by doing what you want to do and NOT what you think your hair won’t do. Love it and leave-in-the conditioner to enjoy all water activities.
What products do you use in the summer to restore your tresses?
THanks for the tips and yes, I plan not to be a slave to my hair this summer.
I’m still trying to find what really works for my natural hair. Will probably put twists back in for summer months. But thanks for the tips.
Sondra, isn’t it a chore to try and reinvent our hair all the time? Simply do what you want with your hair and rock a scarf when you need to. Love you, BNM!~
Karen your hair is always radiantly beautiful! My summer hair care ritual is light and nourishing. Hydrating Hair Mist is my lightweight daily leave in. I use this all year round. My favorite summer hair care product is Indigofera Nourishing Hair Milk, it is a sheer, moisture-rich cream I formulated from pure aloe, virgin coconut oil, and luscious avocado oil. Infused with 100% essential oil Signature Lemongrass for a revitalizing citrusy aroma. Nourishing Hair Milk is perfect for transitioning, curls, twists, locks, and all natural styles. Here are photos of my natural hair journey. http://indigoferabeauty.blogspot.com/2012/05/chanelles-natural-hair-journey.html
Chanelle, you always inspire me for your passion and love of all things radiant!!
