Nine Ways To Maintain Hair Growth and Stop Breakage This Summer

Between chronic heat styling and frequent dye jobs, our stressed out strands are often left brittle and dry, leading to unwanted breakage and ultimately to hair loss. And now that summer has come into play, the sun’s harmful rays also take a toll on our strands, leaving you (and your hair) frustrated beyond belief.

And although living dehydrated and lifeless locks may seem hopeless, there are preventative measures you can take to salvage hair from further damage. Instead of using your go-to hair care favorites, try focusing on a repairing and strengthening regimen to perk back up your strands. For immediate relief, here’s nine ways to maintain hair growth and stop breakage this summer.

For Leave-In-Conditioner. Between the humidity and the rising temperatures, summer is a perfect time to give your hair a break from damaging heat styling tools.

To get beach-ready waves, simply spray your hair with the Sexy Hair Healthy Sexy Soy Tri-Wheat Leave-In-Conditioner ($19.99) before braiding, for a boost of moisture, and free flowing waves.
