Trim Before Summer
Start the season with a trim to eliminate split ends and freshen your style; consider a mid-season cut as well due to faster hair growth in summer.

Protect from Sun Exposure
Apply a hair care product with UV filters daily to shield strands from sun damage and prevent colour fading; wear a wide-brimmed hat outdoors for added protection to scalp and ears.

Pre-Swim Preparation
Saturate hair with clean water or leave-in conditioner before swimming to minimize absorption of saltwater or pool chemicals; rinse hair post-swim with fresh water if possible.

Moisture-Rich Hair Care
Switch to moisturizing shampoo and conditioner to combat increased washing during summer; use a clarifying shampoo weekly to remove product buildup, followed by deep conditioning.

Reduce Heat Styling
Give hair a break from hot tools once or twice a week; opt for washing hair at night and styling with braids or buns for beachy waves without heat damage.

Combat Frizz
Maintain hair health with regular trims, conditioning, and the occasional use of anti-frizz oil or serum containing ingredients like argan oil; apply sparingly to avoid weighing down fine or limp hair.
