Hello!
Ready for that much-needed holiday?
Before you hit the beach or pool, let’s make sure you’ve packed everything you need for gorgeous, healthy hair.
At Samuel Chapman Salon, we believe in looking fabulous while having fun in the sun. So, let's talk about how to protect, condition, and nourish your hair on holiday.
Sun, sea, sand, and chlorine can be pretty harsh on your locks, but don't worry—we've got you covered.
Here are six easy ways to keep your hair happy and healthy while you're away.
1. Have a Haircut Before You Go
Kick off your holiday prep with a fresh trim! Starting your vacation with well-conditioned hair can reduce the chances of breakage and split ends. A good cut will keep your hair looking its best and feeling strong, making it more resilient to the elements. Plus, you'll look fabulous in all your holiday snaps!
2. Get Your Hair Wet Before Swimming
Before you dive into the pool, give your hair a quick rinse with clean water. This might sound odd, but wetting your hair beforehand helps to saturate the hair shaft, leaving less room for chlorine or salty seawater to sneak in. Chlorine and seawater can be super damaging and even change your hair colour, so this little trick can make a BIG difference.
3. Protect Your Hair from the Sun
Just like your skin, your hair needs protection from the sun’s harsh rays. Use a good hair SPF spray—yes, they exist and they’re amazing! And don’t forget to pack a stylish hat. Not only will it keep you looking chic, but it will also provide a physical barrier against UV damage. It’s a win-win!
4. Wear a Conditioning Mask
Make the most of your beach time by applying a moisturising hair mask before you hit the sand. This can help fortify your strands and protect them from dryness. Apply the mask, slick your hair back or scrunch it in to enhance your natural waves, and throw on a hat. You’ll be rocking a sun-safe, super-chic look while your hair gets some extra TLC.
5. Plait Your Hair
Plaits and braids are your holiday BFF! They keep your hair tidy, reduce frizz, and minimise breakage. Plus, when you finally let them loose, you’ll have gorgeous, ready-made waves perfect for that golden hour glow. It’s an effortless way to manage your hair and look fabulous.
6. Avoid Heat Styling
Your hair is already dealing with plenty of heat from the sun, so give those hot tools a break. Embrace your natural texture and go for a beachy look. A few spritzes of an air dry spray can enhance your natural waves and keep your hair looking effortlessly beautiful. Who needs a blow dryer when you have the ocean breeze?
