There are many types of hair, so the means and care for them are also different, but our universal advice is the basis of care, allowing you to achieve brilliant results. Here are five key secrets from Signorina.ru that you need to know about your hair, so that they are beautiful, well-groomed and shining.
1. Shampoo in two stages.
It is better to use shampoo in two stages (two small portions of shampoo instead of one big one): the first one will help you to make your hair clean, and the second one - for medical and cosmetic purposes. If possible, use a Scottish shower to wash your hair, moving from hot water to warm up to cold. Finish your shower by rinsing your hair with cold water for 15 seconds (or as much as you can). The use of the conditioner will make your hair ultra-soft, voluminous and shiny.
2. Daily wash dries hair and scalp.
People do not understand that it is harmful for their hair - to deprive them of natural oils. It is enough to do this 2-3 times a week, and then rinse thoroughly with water. This mode of hair care is required to maintain their strength.
3. Never rub or comb wet hair!
Performing such manipulations with a towel, comb, or fingers injure the cuticles, confuses and breaks hair. To remove excess water, lower your head, wrap a towel around it and gently twirl the turban.
4. Hair should be 70% dry when you start using a hair dryer.
Allow your hair to air dry or wrap it in a towel to prevent injury from too hot air while drying wet hair. Do not hold the hair dryer too close to your head and use your styling fingers to disassemble your hair while it is wet. Use a brush only when it can slide through your hair without resistance.
5. Omega-3 fatty acids are the best food for bulbs.
They can be found in foods, including nuts, cheese, some fruits and vegetables, as well as in cold-water fish such as herring, mackerel, sturgeon, salmon and anchovies.
1. The sun is not always a friend
As you might guess, both the skin and hair do not like the scorching sun very much, therefore they need protection. To do this, I use special sprays that block harmful ultraviolet rays - this will help prevent brittleness and hair section. Apply this spray not only before going to the beach, but also before going outside. And even better to wear a hat, especially since straw hats are now in vogue.
3. Do not forget about thermal protection.
When you do styling a hair dryer or twist curls, be sure to use thermal protection. We already know that in summer the hair is already dehydrated, so there’s no need for additional stress. Apply special means of thermal protection over the entire length of the hair except the roots and proceed to styling. These funds are designed to seal every hair and keep it moist.
Shampoo: pay attention to the composition
Many girls for some reason neglect this important point in hair care, considering that the main function of the shampoo is cleansing, but not care. Therefore, in order to save a lot of people buy cheap and not always high-quality shampoos. And this is a big mistake! Professional brands are not for nothing so much attention is paid to the development of compositions for their products. In addition to the basic cleansing, high-quality shampoo will be able to protect the hair from burnout and dryness, as well as preserve the color of dyed hair for a long time.
For summer, choose shampoos with keratin, silk proteins, as well as coconut milk or aloe vera in the composition. All these components will help restore hair after a long stay in the sun and retain moisture in them.

5 secrets. Hair care in the summer.
Secret 1. Wear a hat or use special shampoos
Trite? But how often do you meet in the city of girls in hats in the summer? Especially if you have a perm, you must wear a hat. It helps to protect hair from the sun and hot wind. If you have not chosen your summer hat yet, have a look at the article where we collected fashionable hats and photos for you.
If you are not a fan of hats at all, replace regular shampoo with SPF shampoo. It is not only a hair care shampoo, but also becomes a barrier to ultraviolet radiation. Here you can add special cream, indelible sprays with SPF, which save curls from dehydration. Also good for hair care shampoo, composed of aloe vera, coconut milk, pine nut oil, silk proteins, poppy and other moisturizing ingredients. It helps to fill the hair with vitality.
Tip 2. Give up a hairdryer
During the summer holidays refuse from curling, hair dryer, tongs, any kind of thermo-laying. This option does not suit you at all? Then add SPF shampoos hair styling products. And remember that in this case, your hair, unfortunately, can become dry and they will need special care for dry hair.

If suddenly in the summer you decide to turn from a brunette to a blonde, do it gradually. It is best to try on a few intermediate colors. And you can just protonate strands, eg. This is a more gentle version of hair coloring in the summer. And the sun will help you with this, because bleached hair burns out very quickly. Therefore, in a blonde can turn into a more natural way.

Weekly indulge hair with moisturizing masks, rub oil. You can make cauterization - this is professional hair care, which is done in the salon.

Tip 5. Rinse the head off with sea salt.
As you know, sea water washes keratin and proteins from hair, and sea wind makes them brittle and split. Therefore, after the beach, thoroughly rinse your head with sea salt, even if you have to do it several times a day. And in no case do not brush wet hairso that they do not split up. And take a rest with you, be sure to take shampoo with keratin, silk proteins or vitamin E and F.

- Very often in the summer girls wash their hair more often than usual. Contrary to many myths, washing your hair every day is not harmful. In summer, all the processes associated with perspiration, are intensified. And that means that the scalp also suffers from this. I recommend my clients to listen to the body. If you feel discomfort - wash your hair daily.
- Use the right shampoos. In the summer I advise (and use them myself) cooling shampoos - those that contain mint and lemon balm extracts, for example (they are very refreshing). But never forget about good moisture, as the sun and salt water dry out the strands and scalp. Alternate deep cleansing shampoos with moisturizers. And do not ignore the special procedures: I advise the universal "Happiness for the hair."
- If you are going on vacation to hot countries, with extreme sensitivity to hair care. Salty sea water, bleach in the pools, the sun's rays strongly affect the condition and quality of hair. Once a week it is necessary to make an easy peeling of the scalp - apply a special scrub and lightly massage the skin with your fingertips, and then wash it off with warm water. Do not forget about the nourishing and moisturizing masks and procedures, and being under the sun, you must apply oil and a means with thermal protection (yes, you need to protect not only the skin of the body and face).
There are a number of tools that I advise to put all the girls in the bathroom shelf. First of all, these are cleansing agents: shampoo, scrub and mask - they help to refresh hair and remove impurities, city dust, styling residues. Also, you should have shampoo and conditioner, which are selected depending on your hair type and needs. Different tools are needed for dyed, brittle, dry, greasy, porous hair. And, of course, essential oil for strands, thermal protection and basal spray to give volume.
- Of course, the scalp and hair should be monitored all year round - and not just as summer approaches. After days at sea, visit your stylist: he will appreciate not only your tan and sun-streaked skin, but also the condition of your scalp - and select the necessary treatment.

Mask for summer care: we increase the effect
At least 1 time per week, you must use a quality mask. Its active components work in the hair structure itself, restoring it and restoring strength. To help the beneficial composition penetrate the hair cortex, you can do a real spa treatment at home with your favorite mask.
- Wash hair with shampoo.
- We apply a mask on slightly strand dried with a towel and carefully distribute along the length without touching the roots.
- We fix the hair with a rubber band and put on a shower cap on top. We warm with a towel.
- We warm up the towel turban with a hair dryer for 5-7 minutes.
- We are waiting for another 10 minutes and wash off the mask from the hair.
Hair after such a procedure will become saturated, shiny and elastic. Qualitative summer hair care helps keep hair healthy and strong even on very hot days.
Careful combing hair in the summer
Do not be afraid to comb your hair! It is important to do it right. Replace the usual plastic combs with wooden massage brushes and combs. In this case, pay attention that they were made of durable wood, for example, bamboo, birch, ash or sandalwood.
Most often in our stores are available brushes made of pine. Despite the fact that it is an environmentally friendly and high-quality material, over time, the bristles of such a hairbrush are stratified, because pine is a soft wood. The burrs appearing on the teeth, injure the hair and contribute to their section.
Sun protection for hair
In the summer it is difficult to hide from the sun, but protecting your hair is extremely important if you want to keep your hair beautiful, healthy and shiny. Pay attention to professional sunscreens for hair - they contain many high-quality polymers that not only create an inconspicuous protective film on the strands, but also enhance the shine of the hair.
Do not hesitate to wear hats: a wide-brimmed hat is not only a stylish accessory, but also an excellent solar barrier.
A good option for the beach would be natural base oils. Almond, olive or grape oil should be generously applied to your hair before you go to sunbathe. Strands will look wet, but on the beach it does not look inappropriate, but it will help to avoid dryness after swimming in the sea and long sunbathing.
Summer hair care: spray instead of varnish
For summer, such styling products as varnishes, foams and mousses are completely inappropriate. They have too dense texture, stick together strands and literally “flow” under the influence of hot rays. Replace them with indelible serums, sprays and balms, which contain useful silicones for the hair. They are easily washed off with professional shampoo, while protecting the hair and allowing you to create beautiful styling. The main thing - do not apply these funds to the roots. This styling can be used only on the length and tips of the hair.
