July 2001 Summer may bring glorious visions of natural highlights and long windblown hair. The reality is that summer sun and humidity can damage your hair's cuticle and result in dry, drab, split, brittle or frizzy hair and ends.
Sunlight can be just as damaging as a hot blow dryer.
Naturally curly hair is often a major victim to summer frizzies. Prevent static electricity in your hair when you shampoo by applying a rinse out conditioner that adds moisture and shine. The voluminizing and luminizing products are designed to add body and shine, but may not add moisture. Be sure to read all ingredients on the hair product. If you normally blow dry and use hot curling tools every day, try and give your hair a break during the summer month.
