POST-BEACH CARE & STYLING TIPS
Knowing how to treat and style your hair after spending a day in the sun and sand is so important.
First, treat your hair with oil or a healthy dose of conditioner before you shampoo. Secondly, use a natural shampoo with moisturizing qualities—stay away from anything too harsh, as you want to keep your natural oils intact. Thirdly, consider investing in a high-quality leave-in conditioner that helps lock in healthy moisture for a prolonged period of time. Next, grab a detangling comb or brush your hair with your fingertips to minimize breakage before brushing. Finally, let your hair air-dry instead of using a blow dryer and/or heated styling product, as these styling props tend to dry out the hair.
HAIR TREATMENTS
Any blondes out there may have experienced the “green hair problem,” caused by that much-desired dip in your backyard pool…but what exactly causes this issue? Most people are under the impression that chlorine is the main culprit, but this is not entirely true. Chlorine and copper—which is found in various water sources—bond together to form a film that sticks to the proteins in your hair, causing it to turn green.
While undesirable, you can rest assured that this tint is not permanent. Fisher Experience recommends that swimmers treat the tips of their hair with conditioner prior to swimming in order to protect and prevent unnecessary drying. It is important to rinse your hair immediately afterwards, and then proceed to use a specialized shampoo and conditioner designed to remove chlorine and other damaging minerals from your hair.

Otherwise, enjoy the paradise of summer to its fullest…just don’t forget to maintain the health of your hair in the meantime.
