Come summer, aren’t we all a bit more lax with our hair? Air-drying is more common than not, and personally I’m much more apt to throw on a hat and go rather than wash and style my hair (thank G-d for dry shampoo). But despite a more casual approach to my coif, I take protecting my strands from the sun to another level—especially now that they’re platinum. That’s why I’m especially psyched about Rene Furterer’s latest launch, and the Solaire collection includes sesame-oil-based pre- and post-sun hair products that protect, nourish and preserve the health of your hair.
Before…
In addition to the sun, chlorine and salt water are major
culprits when it comes to summertime hair damage. Responsible for dry, brittle
hair that’s especially prone to breakage—and color fading, no matter your
hue—the elements are enemy number one. That’s where the new Solaire products
come in, and there’s the Protective
Summer Oil for those with thicker hair in need of intense hydration (or
those who like a slicked-back poolside look) and the lighter Protective
Summer Fluid for thinner hair (or those who want to rock their usual
style). Both of these water-resistant products provide KPF (keratin protection
factor) to shield 90% of keratin from damage with a highly effective
sunscreen-grade UV filter. (And they come in TSA-friendly sizes so you can
straight from the plane to the playa.)
After…
At the end of the day, undoing damage should be priority
number-one. Start with the Solaire Nourishing
Repair Shampoo, which replenishes all of the essential moisture lost during
a day of fun in the sun as it gently washes away salt, chlorine and anything
else you may have picked up along the way. Follow with the Nourishing
Repair Mask to fight frizz and restore smooth, soft strands. And if you
choose, take you rehydration and restoration efforts all the way with the dual-phase
Leave-In
Moisturizing Spray. This treatment/styling product detangles and smoothes
whether you blowdry or not, and offers UV protection for when you’re going to
do it all again…
So what’s your hair sun protection routine?
