Enjoy Healthy Hair on Holiday

Hair Care Essentials for Your Holiday Getaway at Anthony James Hair Salon in Halifax

Planning a summer holiday is exciting, but amidst the hustle and bustle, it's crucial not to neglect planning for your hair. Exposure to the sun, chlorine, and saltwater can cause damage, leaving your locks dry and lifeless. At Anthony James Hair Salon in Halifax, we recognise the significance of maintaining healthy hair even while on holiday. In this blog post, we will share essential hair care tips for protecting and caring for your locks during your vacation.

Chlorine Protection for Beautiful Hair

Wet Your Hair Before You Swim

Before taking a plunge into the pool, make sure to dampen your hair with clean water. This simple step helps minimise chlorine absorption. Like a sponge, hair tends to absorb any liquid it comes into contact with, and pre-wetting with clean water reduces the amount of chlorinated water that you hair will absorb.

Apply a Pre-Swim Treatment

To shield your hair from chlorine damage, consider using a pre-swim treatment. Various products are available that can create a barrier and reduce chlorine absorption. Consult with your stylist at Anthony James Hair Salon to find the best option for your hair type and needs.

Wear a Swimming Hat

Though not the most fashionable choice, swim caps are highly effective at safeguarding your hair from chlorine exposure. Investing in a well-fitting swim cap can provide an extra layer of defence, helping to keep your hair healthier during your swim.

Rinse Your Hair Immediately After Swimming

After your swim, it's essential to rinse your hair with clean water as soon as possible. This helps remove chlorine and other potentially damaging substances from your hair. Follow up with a gentle shampoo and conditioner to maintain your hair's health and restore moisture.
