Summertime in UAE brings sunshine and pitchers of sangria, but it may also get parched, dry hair. It’s unfortunate, but it’s true: this season, lifeless, parched tresses and dry hair are a possibility. Summers don’t have to be synonymous with many awful hair days. Visiting a beauty salon in Dubai might be helpful to take care of your hair in the summer heat. Here are a few summer hair care treatments to incorporate into your hair care routine to keep your hair bouncy all summer long.
How Summer Season Affect Hair
Before we learn about hair treatments for summer, let’s have a look at what affects your hair the most in summer. So let’s dig deep into the details.
Sun Heat
The sun can burn your hair is nothing more than a misconception. The sun’s heat can damage the natural protective film of your hair. According to research, three days of sun exposure can deteriorate the scale-like cells that cover each shaft of your hair. This will leave your hair dry, frizzed, dull, brittle, and weak.
Humidity
Humidity weakens the hydrogen bonds in the hair and the salt bonds to some extent. The higher the humidity, the more bonds will break. More air moisture will cause the hair to stretch and eventually increase hair grease.
Hot Wind
In the UAE you will always face the fast and hot wind. When traveling, try to avoid letting the wind and sand rush through your hair. The hot wind can cause tangling, matting, and dry hair. Similarly, the sand will stick to your scalp damaging your roots. Cover your hair to avoid such contact.
Chemical Treatment
Hair that has been colored or highlighted (that has had its natural color stripped away) is particularly vulnerable to UV damage. Color-treated hair is already damaged, and the sun will exacerbate the problem by roughening the cuticle. The hair becomes more fragile and dries out as a result of this. Hair-lightening products should be avoided. Most of them contain peroxide or metal, which can harm your hair severely.
Water Sports
Both chlorine and saltwater cause hair to dry out and darken. Pool chemicals bond to the hair, giving it a greyish or greenish color. Mineral deposits in saltwater, when combined with sunlight, cause hair to become highly dehydrated and brittle. If you’re going swimming, properly wet your hair and apply a little conditioner before you go in. When you get out of the water, wash your hair right away.
Hair Treatments to Beat Summer Heat
Unfortunately, summer enjoyment comes with post-summer hair damage. Your hair may appear dull, brassy, frizzy, dry, or brittle after exposure to the wind, sun, chlorine, saltwater, and air conditioning. To make your hair seem healthy and lovely again, follow these professional recommendations from Rami Jabali, owner of the Rami Jabali hair salon in Palm Jumeirah, Dubai UAE.
Hair Conditioning is the Key
In the same way that we lose moisture more quickly in the summer, our hair does as well. So why not rehydrate and rejuvenate it? To remove excess oil and restore moisture to the hair, use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner (preferably separate products, not a two-in-one).
Allow the specialists to give you an excellent deep conditioning treatment to moisturize and make your hair look its best if it needs a little additional help.
Keep an Eye on your Tresses
Dry hair is difficult to manage, especially in the summer. Trims should be done on a regular basis to keep it healthy. This will prevent split ends and help you feel a lot lighter during the hotter months. Second, because the weather can dehydrate your hair, keep it hydrated by drinking plenty of water and drinking green smoothies. Finally, eat seafood, eggs, and milk to boost your Omega 3 fatty acid and Biotin levels. This will give your hair a natural gloss and healthy texture from within.
Trim your Hair
A refreshing trim is a great way to kick off the summer. Get rid of the additional weight and stay a little cooler in the hot heat. Did you know that your hair grows faster in the summer as well? Yes, hair grows faster in the summer and slower in the winter. That means you won’t have to wait long to have your hair back to its previous length if you don’t like it.
Getting your haircut, blow-dried, and styled on a regular basis will maintain it healthy and look its best. Shorter hair is simply easier to manage, helping you to control frizz and eliminate split ends more effectively.
Demoisturize Oily Scalp
Make the switch to sulfate-free hair products. Investing in a decent sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner will not only help keep the oil in check but will also help balance the pH levels of the scalp, eliminating any seasonal irritation or allergies. It’s very vital to choose the correct hair product for summer if you have dry hair, especially when it comes to the basics. Dove Dryness Care Shampoo and Conditioner are recommended. The Pro-Moisture Complex nourishes strands at the cellular level and protects them from daily wear and strain, which you should avoid, especially this time of year. It’s the ideal choice for keeping your tresses looking great all summer!
Bottom Line
High temperatures, humidity, flash storms, chlorine, saltwater, and intense light can and will harm your coils. You’ll push through this Summer prepared to take better care of your hair if you rethink your Summer hair care utilizing the techniques above.
