Keep Your Locks Looking Great on Hot Days
With summertime approaching, it's time to learn some essential hair tips and tricks to keep your hair looking fantastic and fresh. Let's prepare to enjoy the sunshine while maintaining our locks in top condition.
Use Less Heat on Your Hair
Summers already give your hair more heat than it needs; hence keep heat styling to the minimum in the summers. Too much external heat can cause burned and weak hair, which is prone to breakage. Thus, it is better to embrace your natural hairstyle and use no-heat ways to style it, like tying braids overnight for curly/ wavy hair and keeping your locks intact.
Letting your hair to air dry is a great way to maintain its health and vitality during hot weather. Also, use heat protectant sprays to minimize damage if heat styling is necessary.
Rinse With Cold Water
After a hot day in the sun, washing your hair and body with cold water is relaxing and beneficial. It helps close the hair cuticles, sealing in moisture and adding shine. Avoid hot water, which can further dehydrate your scalp and strip away natural oils.
Combat Hair-fall
Hair loss is a massive problem in the summer due to excessive heat, sweating, and chlorine salt water. Hot days can make your hair dry and prone to damage. Hence, you may combat this problem using VIVI Natural’s Root 66 abundance serum for fuller hair. Its clinically proven formula provides a comprehensive treatment for thinning hair and losing volume.
Trim Your Hair
The best way is to start your summer with a trim. It helps remove split ends, making your locks look frizzy, dull, and unhealthy. Regular trimming also contributes to hair growth because trimming damaged and dry ends promotes healthier hair development from the root.
Trimming also improves manageability as split ends tangle more easily. Additionally, trimming helps control frizz by removing frayed ends contributing to fizziness.
Limit Hair Coloring
Hair coloring, especially using chemical processes like bleaching and dyeing, can strip hair of its natural moisture, making it prone to dryness, brittleness, and breakage. In summer, sun heat already contributes to hair dryness and damage; hence not coloring your hair for some time can maintain your health.
Furthermore, exposure to the sun's UV rays can cause color-treated hair to fade more quickly.
Intake of Proper Nutrients
Healthy eating and drinking are essential for your hair health. Protein-rich foods like fish, eggs, and nuts help produce the keratin necessary for hair. Staying hydrated is vital and even more critical in the summer when dehydration is standard.
Therefore, drink at least eight water glasses daily and increase the intake of fruits such as cucumbers, watermelons, and coconut water for better nourishment. Iron and zinc deficiencies can lead to hair loss and thinning.

Bottom Line
With these tips and tactics, you may boldly tackle the hot days without worrying about your hair. Remember to nurture, protect, and cherish your inherent beauty. So, enjoy the sun, and let your beautiful hair shine!
