Summer brings sunshine, beach days, and poolside fun—but it can also leave your curls feeling dry, brittle, and frizzy. Heat, humidity, and UV exposure strip moisture from your strands, making hydration a top priority. If you want to keep your curls soft, defined, and nourished all season long, follow these summer hair care tips featuring Curl Care essentials!
1. Hydrate with the Right Shampoo & Conditioner
Using a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo helps maintain your hair’s natural oils while keeping your scalp fresh. Our Untangled Shampoo cleanses without stripping moisture, while Hydrate Don’t Hate Deep Conditioner restores hydration and strength to your curls.
Pro Tip:
Leave in a small amount of deep conditioner for extra moisture, especially if your hair tends to dry out quickly in the sun.
2. Lock in Moisture with Curl Cream
Summer heat can quickly evaporate moisture from your strands, so sealing hydration is a must. Our Define & Shine Curl Cream adds nourishment while defining your curls, reducing frizz, and providing lightweight hold.
How to Use:
Apply to damp hair and rake through with your fingers to distribute evenly. Pair it with Aloe Vera Gel for extra definition and humidity resistance.
3. Protect Your Curls from the Sun
Just like your skin, your hair needs protection from UV rays. Prolonged sun exposure weakens the hair shaft, leading to dryness and breakage.
Protective Measures:
-
Wear a Slip Satin Bonnet or scarf when out in direct sunlight.
-
Use a UV-protectant spray or a little Aloe Vera Gel to form a moisture barrier.
-
Opt for protective styles like braids or buns to minimize sun exposure.
4. Avoid Overwashing & Heat Styling
Frequent washing strips natural oils, leaving your hair drier. Instead, refresh your curls with a co-wash or water spritz mixed with leave-in conditioner.
Limit heat styling—embrace air-drying or diffuse on a low-heat setting to preserve moisture and curl health.
5. Sleep on a Silk Pillowcase
Friction from cotton pillowcases can cause curls to lose moisture overnight. Our Slip Satin Pillowcases & Bonnets help reduce frizz and retain hydration while you sleep, keeping your curls fresh for the next day.
Final Thoughts
With the right routine, summer doesn’t have to mean dry, lifeless curls. Keep your hair hydrated, protected, and thriving with Curl Care products designed for your curls’ unique needs.
