Simple Sun and Swim Hair-Care Habits

Warm-weather hair care is less about a miracle product and more about a few repeatable habits. Sun, pool water, salt water and frequent washing can leave some hair feeling dry or tangled. Hair products are not a substitute for sunscreen on exposed scalp skin.

Before going outdoors

Use a hat or scarf for shade when practical. If you plan to swim, wet hair with clean water first and put it in a comfortable, low-tension style. For dry lengths, a small amount of Shea-Pro Leave-In Moisturizer may add softness.

After swimming

Rinse hair with fresh water, then cleanse when needed to remove salt, chlorine or styling buildup. Deep Moisture Shampoo is one option if hair feels dry. Follow with conditioner and detangle gently.

Keep treatments targeted

If hair feels fragile after color or repeated styling, consider a separate treatment such as Keratin 2 Minute Reconstructor according to its label. A styling spray is not a substitute for UV protection, and split ends require trimming.
