With Summer holiday fun unfortunately comes post-Summer hair damage as well. After spending time in the elements and with Summer side effects from chlorine, salt water and air conditioning, your hair may be looking a little brassy, frizzy, dry or brittle. Never fear! We have you covered with some simple tips and tricks to get your locks back to being luscious and healthy in no time.

Moisturise: While we never seem to forget to moisturise our skin all year round, it’s easy to forget that hair damage isn’t going to repair itself. The best way to repair your locks from dehydration is with the Equilibrium nourishing hair masque from our Essential Treatments range. After shampooing and conditioning, apply Equilibrium to wet hair and gently comb through, leaving on for 10 minutes, allowing the beneficial ingredients of Organic Rosehip and Oat Peptides to penetrate into your damaged hair shafts. Rinse off to restore and nourish dry, damaged hair to its former glory.

Protect: We still have another month of Summer ahead, so don’t go unprotected. Just like skin, your hair should be protected from the harsh UV rays of the Australian sun that put your skin and hair under stress. Block UV rays by using our Allevi8 Shine Serum from the Instant range – a concentrated weightless finishing serum with UV protection designed to smooth and seal hair cuticles whilst leaving a glossy, grease free shine. With nourishing ingredients such as Wheatgerm, Apricot and Avocado Oils, your hair will be protected and silky smooth!

Hold the Shampoo: Your hair will benefit greatly from the natural oils that your scalp creates – so try as much as possible to ease off the shampoo on days you don’t absolutely HAVE to wash it. To keep you feeling fresh and your locks looking clean, opt for our Absorb dry shampoo from the Essential Treatments range. Made from ingredients such as Organic Rosehip and infused with Bamboo Extracts, Absorb will nourish and volumise hair and control oily scalp conditions – perfect for in between washes and keeping your hairs natural oils under control.

Handle with care: Brittle hair responds badly to rough handling, so brush gently if your hair is tangled. Apply Infinite Detangler leave-in treatment from our Essential Treatments range to treat your hair to a daily dose of natural botanical extracts for silky, tangle free tresses. Add an extra boost of conditioning with our Protein Complex – a strengthening in-shower treatment – which will help strengthen hair follicles.

Cut your losses: Chlorine, sun, salt and hair elastics can all lead to frayed and fried ends. Although we all hate the dreaded cut – a trim will make a world of difference to post summer locks. Leaving you with well-defined, healthy ends that will show off your healthy hair from a bob, to pixie cut to long waves.
