How to take care of gray hair in the face of summer (and always)
This is how you have to dry your hair in the open air so that it looks almost like a hairdresser's (according to the hairdressers themselves)
Is it possible to get up already combed?
This is how the pillow becomes the best hairdresser
Ready, Set... Go!
Whoever thinks that
the hair
does not need a set-up before the summer falls into a tremendous mistake.
We must not forget that one of the current trends,
'skinification',
dictates that the hair must be cared for with
as much dedication as the skin.
For this reason, during the holidays, especially on the beach, in addition to showing off the summer hairstyle, it must be protected daily from the sun, the breeze, salt and chlorine, all agents that dehydrate and make
the dyes turn
color. in an unwanted way.
But there is also much to do before.
According to the hairdresser
Raquel Saiz,
from
Salón Blue by Raquel Saiz
(Torrelavega, Cantabria), the hair fiber must be strengthened with pre-summer
moisturizing treatments
and
enliven the color
with the most suitable dyes and highlights.
Prepare your hair for summer: the right cut and color
Leaving hair styling to chance is not an option.
To escape as much as possible
from heat tools
(your hair is going to suffer from other external aggressors), 'wash and go' cuts are your thing.
Among them, those that are worked in layers, that
give volume
where it is needed, are the ones recommended by Raquel Saiz.
As for color, "
it doesn't hurt to do a 'refresh' to facilitate maintenance and achieve a natural look; to do this, the reflections of the balayage or babylights highlights, which
subtly
lighten and with which you do not have to touch up the roots are the most recommended", explains the hairdresser.
To
protect the color
of the hair in the sun, in addition to having done this 'previous', there is nothing like always having a leave-in spray that defends and enhances the color, such as
Kevin Murphy's Everlasting Color
(33 euros).
Protect your hair this summer with a deep clean
The first step in preparing your hair for summer
is to cleanse and moisturize,
just like you do with your skin.
That's what the
'Hair Rituel by Sisley' treatment does,
which begins with a purifying pre-wash, which eliminates
the remains of pollution.
Now ready for hydration, it is continued with a personalized shampoo and is deeply nourished with a regenerating mask (150 euros with hairstyle included in
Next, Peque or Tacha,
in Madrid).
At home, maintaining this super-cleanliness involves using
a purifying pre-wash mask,
like
Sisley's,
which leaves hair cleaner and prepared for subsequent hydration (78.50 euros).
Protect hair from the sun: watch out for blondes in summer
Chlorine, salt and sun
make up a Molotov cocktail for
colored hair,
but especially for blondes.
The first two adhere to hair that, wet, is defenseless against the effects of the sun, and
porous
due to dyes.
"The result is a
dry and open fiber
that tends to worsen and change color with each sun session," says
Verónica Castro,
from
Vanitas Espai
(Barcelona).
For them, the 'Hair Top Coat'
protocol is recommended ,
which provides shine, nutrition and
maintains the blonde
thanks to a
protective varnish
that is achieved with a coconut oil balm,
hyaluronic acid
and caviar extract.
Its effects last up to four weeks (59.90 euros).
As a product to have on hand all summer, the
Illuminating Mask Silver Pearl, from Balmain Hair Couture,
which keeps the blonde intact (54 euros).
How to fight frizz in summer
The humidity of the coastal areas makes the frizz effect an unwanted summer classic.
That is why long-lasting straightening is a candy in these previous weeks.
However,
if you do not want to modify the structure
but do want to avoid frizz, the appropriate treatment will be
Silk Keratin from the
Cheska
hairdressing salon
(Madrid).
They use silk proteins instead of formaldehyde and derivatives (which break down the fiber instead of treating it), so that the hair is soft, reinforced and shiny without the need to style it with heat tools.
The results last up to six months (from 300 euros).
If we talk about a product to keep frizz at bay, we bet on the
Rescue Ampoules, from Pantene,
which act like a mask, but in a minute (4.99 euros, the pack of three).
