Top Tips For Holiday Hair Care
We all love the sand, the sea and the scorching hot days, but we hate the effect it has on our hair. Take a look at our top tips to stop your hair going from fab to drab this summer. 
Protect from the sun - everyone knows that we need to protect our skin from the sun, but its important to give the same treatment to our hair. UV rays are as damaging to our locks as they are to our legs. Keep sun damaged dried ends away by covering with a UV protection hair spritz. During the day, protect the top of your hair and scalp with a stylish hat.
Be careful with braids – Children are always eagre to get their hair braided when they go on holiday. But it is important to ensure that the braids are not too tight, as this could result in stress alopecia.Braiding also leaves the scalp exposed to the sun so it is extra important to cover with a hat and UV protection spray. When it comes time to remove the braids, start at the bottom and gently untaggle, spraying in a leave in conditioner as you go. 
Protect from chlorine - If your hair is newly dyed, it is important to protect it from pool chemicals that could damage or cause changes to the colour. Green is definitley not the new blonde and only Lady Gaga could do that one justice. So, if you would rather not hide under a huge hat the rest of your holiday, be sure to protect your hair with a special after-sun shampoo. Remember to use conditioner daily to keep your locks in top shape.
Drink water - As well as swimming in it, water has other uses when on holiday and one of those is drinking it. Keep a bottle of water on you through out the day and drink at regular intervals, this will ensure that you and your hair keep hydrated.
