Although many northerners may be bemoaning the inevitile end of summer, us lucky Floridians still have perfect summer weather long after the kids go back to school and offices revert to their normal hours. Beach escapes are on the future weekend agendas for many and even if it’s not a “traditional” summer month, it’s important to protect your skin and hair in a “traditional” way.

We know about sunscreen for the skin, but how can you protect your hair and keep it stylish? Luckily, AVEDA has created a sun care line that satisfies both issues. Before heading out, apply Sun Care Protective Hair Veil to your hair to protect it from the bleaching prowess of the mighty sun. It’s one of the best beauty school products I’ve used! As for styling, the salt spray of the waves will be hard to fight. So work with it! To keep hair manageable and out of your face, throw on a headband or hat (added protection for both the hair and skin). Run a bit of Light Elements Defining Whip through your hair to create that oh-so-stylish, beach tousled look.

After your beach outing, Aveda’s Sun Care Hair and Body Cleanser will help remove any chlorine, salt, and build-up from both your hair and skin. If you still feel your hair is suffering from the ill-effects of sun exposure, Sun Care After-Sun Hair Masque can restore sun-exposed hair. On days not spent in the sand and sun, the Damage Remedy Daily Repair is a phenomenal leave-in conditioner that instantly repairs damaged hair by 26%, helps protect from heat styling and detangles to help prevent further damage. Your hair will also benefit from a weekly treatment such as Damage Remedy Intensive Restructuring Treatment or Dry Remedy Moisturizing Treatment Masque.

Remember the Florida sun is fierce almost year-round. Although you might only be outside for a few minutes at a time, those few minutes are all what’s needed for your color to be stripped away little by little. Being in Miami and going to cosmetology schools Ft. Lauderdale, I’ve seen this experience first-hand! By protecting your hair daily from the sun, your color and style will stay fresher longer. No matter where you plan on going for the day, if you take just a few minutes to protect your hair, you’ll find it will be a little easier to maintain that healthy, stylish hair you love.
