IT’S SUMMER! Who else is happy about the sunny weather?

Summer time can be harsh on our hair. We are in the sun a lot more which believe it or not is a bit damaging to our hair and skin.  Here are 5 tips to maintain your hair during the Summer heat:

1.Use less heat- The sun is already drying out your hair so try using less heat tools and where a hat as often as possible.  Try out a leave in conditioner with UV protectant. One of our favorites is 7 Seconds, leave in conditioner by Unite. It makes your hair feel like butter and protects from heat and UV.

2. Products– Use lighter products and less of them. We sweat a lot in the summer, using less products won’t weigh your hair down as fast and you wont have to wash as frequently. Look for a nourishing shampoo and conditioner. Our favorites are Kevin Murphy, Hydrate Me and Living Proof, Restore. These will make your hair feel so moisturized and soft.

3. Swim– Before you swim coat your hair in oil that way your hair is absorbing less of the chlorine and other chemicals in the pool. Plus this will keep your hair hydrated. One of our favorites is the Kevin Murphy, Young Again.

4. Hydration/Moisture– Deep condition your hair to maintain that moisture. Find a good mask and do this at least once a week to maintain that hydration. Our favorite is the Living Proof, Mask Treatment. You will love this product!

5. Drink lots of water- Keeping your body hydrated will keep your hair hydrated. Always keep your water bottle with you. We can provide you one when you come into pro Do;)

Since we are all stuck at home being quarantined try training your hair to go longer between washes. This can make your hair so much healthier and less dry. Also, why wash your own hair when you have pro Do to do that for you when we reopen our doors! Here are 3 reasons you should go longer between washes:

1. Your hair won’t be dry
2. Your hair will be shinier- since you won’t be washing your hair as often, you won’t be stripping your hair and it will force itself to use its natural oils.
3. Your hair color will last longer- “Hair color is like clothes: The more you wash them, the more worn out and faded they become,” -Will Francis

Our favorite thing to do with our hair when its greasy and dirty is to put it on top of our head in a bun. That way it wont be in your face bothering you. Let’s all try to go a couple days longer between our hair washes! How long can you go?

Now that Winter is coming to an end its time to start preparing your hair for the Spring. Yes, you should be transitioning your hair care routine with each season. Here are 3 Spring hair care tips:

1. GET A TRIM– snipping off the ends will get your hair a fresh start from the harsh winter.
2. SWITCH UP YOUR SHAMPOO/CONDITIONER– if you have been using a shampoo/conditioner with a lot of moisture try choosing one with less, that way you aren’t weighing your hair down and putting too much moisture into your hair now that winter is over.
3. FRIZZY HAIR– Beat frizzy hair by investing in a serum. Try using Kevin Murphy, Smooth Again. One of our favs!

I have too much hair… said NO woman ever! Not all of us have been blessed with thick hair. Thank goodness for hair extensions. For those of you who wear extensions or thinking about getting extensions here are some helpful tips:

If you can, try to have two sets of extensions: one straight and one curly. That way you are putting less damage on the hair extensions. This will help them to last way longer and it will save you time because they are always ready to go.

–MAINTAINING AND WASHING: Wash your extensions based on how much you wear them. If you wear them a lot, you wash them more often. The best thing to do when washing your extensions is to take them into the shower with you and then lay them out to air dry.

–CREATE A SYSTEM: Mark your extensions so you know where each piece goes on your head. When clipping on your head make sure you clip them right on your hair.

–FINE HAIR: Worried about slippage on fine hair? Back comb each section where you will be applying the clip and spray a little hairspray before you clip it in.

–REMOVAL TIP: When removing extensions make sure when you unclip you slide it up so you do not pull any hair out.

-STORAGE TIP: place hair in your hanger and store in bag.

If you don’t want to attempt this yourself for an additional $10 you can add it on to any service and pro Do will do it for you.
