How to Protect Your Hair from Summer Humidity!

Happy weekend Certified Fabulous readers!

Summer is here!  Well, not technically yet, but it’s after Memorial Day so in my book, it has.  It’s also the end of wild card week so I thought I’d talk about my hair since summer brings a lot of challenges for my hair.

Most people tell me that they wish they had my hair because it’s naturally curly.  I certainly appreciate the compliment but I tend to think differently because for us curly haired gals, it’s sometimes hard to manage.  It gets dry and frizzy and depending on the weather, I never know what to expect and how easy it will be to tame it.  I have very healthy hair but because of its natural curl, the frizziness is just a given.

I have a couple of different products I use that keep the frizz down and my curls loose and intact.  The first is my daily go to, Garnier Fructis Style Sleek & Shine Intensely Smooth Leave-In Conditioning Cream.  I put this cream in my hair as soon as I get out of the shower.  I simply towel dry and distribute evenly through my hair while applying a little more to the ends.  I can then style as usual which typically involves using a hair dryer with a diffuser.  I love this leave-in cream!  It keeps my hair soft, yet sleek like the name implies.

I recently tried another product which I also love, Moroccan Oil Frizz Control.  This anti-frizz, anti-static spray works wonders when I don’t have time to blow dry but still want to reduce the frizz.  It’s lightweight, non greasy and just a few sprays are all you need.  I love the scent too, which yes, reminds me of summer.

So don’t let the humidity get your curly hair down this summer, we have options, but most importantly, take care of yourself.
 

Enjoy the day!
