When the seasons switch, many people focus on adjusting their skincare routine, but your hair actually needs just as much TLC too. From being covered up all winter, it’s time to let your hair down and show off your glossy, healthy locks as you get summer ready to shine. Live True London are an independent group of hair and beauty salons. Their teams reconcile their expertise and experience around your wants and needs. Today, they’re sharing their 10 commandments of summertime haircare for us all.




1. Switch up your products. Opt for more moisturising shampoo and conditioner.

2. Protect hair before swimming with a spray that locks in moisture and prevents damage from salt or chemicals.

3. Avoid heat tools, such as straighteners. Help keep moisture locked in.

4. Start the summer with a trim to get rid of split ends that may have built up over winter.

5. Use an anti-frizz serum to beat the frizz caused by hot or humid temperatures.

6. Wear a hat if you have coloured hair to avoid fade and protect your scalp from sunburn. You can also buy products already containing sunscreen to spray on hair before exposure to the sun.

7. Wear your hair loose to avoid pulling at hair already weakened in the heat

8. Rinse hair out after a dip in the sea but try and avoid over-washing which strips hair of its natural oils.

9. Use a wide-toothed comb instead of a brush when wet to avoid breakage.

10. Create your own beach hair look with a sea salt spray. Buy one from a salon or make one yourself with one teaspoon of sea salt mixed with one teaspoon of coconut oil, mix with water and spritz on to hair.

With these simple top tips above, you’re bound to have the best hair around, no matter where you are in the world.
