Sunshine, beach days, and pool dips are the best part of summer—but they can wreak havoc on your hair. UV rays, saltwater, and chlorine strip strands of moisture, weaken the cuticle, and fade color fast. If your curls are feeling dry, brittle, or undefined, this is your natural recovery plan—no silicones, no sulfates, just real plant-powered repair.
What Summer Does to Your Hair
Your hair is just as vulnerable to the elements as your skin. Here’s how summer takes a toll:
-
UV rays break down keratin, leading to weak, dull strands
-
Saltwater pulls out moisture, leaving curls dehydrated and frizzy
-
Chlorine strips natural oils and can cause breakage, especially on color-treated or textured hair
-
Sweat and product buildup clog the scalp and disrupt hair growth
