What’s Hot

Summer Hair CareĀ Beach scene

Protecting your hair from the sun is vital to protecting your style! The sun’s harsh rays can not only damage delicate skin but can also dry out your hair. So, no matter if you’re spending vacation days beneath the rays or just enjoying the outdoors around town, finding the right summer-care products for your hair type is a must.

Our own Omar Romero (who is a pro when it comes to educating on hair and specialty products) was recently featured on WWLTV’s The 504, where he sat down with host Sheba Turk to share some tips on managing summer hair and protecting it from the surf, sand and sun.

In a nutshell, Omar says:
> Use a good leave-in, moisturizing conditioner before diving in
> Layer a product with UVB protection over your conditioner
> Detox or clarify your hair to keep it shiny and healthy
> Always use a styling product

Need some help figuring out which hair care products are right for you? See below for a couple of ideas. Or just call us at 525-7777. We can help!
