That air dry feeling!

If you’ve been using a diffuser to get you through the cold months, your hair may be feeling a little more tangled and inconsistent by now. Using heat can cause the hair to be dry and acquire split ends. Naturally, the curls will lose definition, bounce and shine the less hydrated they are. But the good news is, as the weather warms up, it's the perfect time to give your curls a bit of love and get them ready for that air dry feeling we all look forward to.

Here’s what I recommend:

Fresh End, Fresh Start

Get rid of any ends that aren’t serving you well from the winter ( think tangle free, less frizz, easier maintenance). As we approach the warmer months, a fresh haircut can be a great way to prepare your curls for the summer. It helps eliminate dry ends, making your curls healthier and more consistent and manageable and sets you up just right for being able to leave your curls to air dry. 

Hydrate Those Curls!

Lean into your spring curl care kit. As a stylist, I've found that a nourishing treatment along with a freshen up of the ends makes all the difference for curls looking their best in spring and summer! Unless you’re going for a major chop, your mid-lengths probably still need a little extra moisture.

Let’s get them ready for the summer sun with a hydrating boost, meaning extra curl definition and further ease of maintenance. If you're unsure which treatment or haircut is right for your curls, let us help you choose the best options tailored to your needs after we’ve assessed your hair in person. Booking in for a ‘transformation Curly cut’ will allow us time to add a treatment.

Don’t Forget the Sun Protection

Check in on your at home products. Did you know that our hair needs sun protection, just like our skin, in order to stay healthy? UV exposure can cause curls to lose moisture, leading to dryness and frizz, so products with SPF can really help protect and maintain your hair’s health. Some leave-in conditioners have SPF protection in them which will be a perfect primer to any styling products you then put on top.

My favourite is Davines SU Hair Milk - It’s lightweight and moisturising, and is available in travel size which makes it the best for Summer.
