Nourishing treatment
To repair your hair after the winter use a treatment mask at least once a week for deep restoration. This will help get your hair in tiptop shape for summer and help to prevent it from drying out from the elements of summer.

Condition
A leave-in conditioner acts as a detangler and heat protectant for frizz-free hair. It also has nourishing ingredients that will absorb into the hair. It is important to condition your hair after every shampoo and it is even more so during the summer months when the elements such as sun and sea take its toll on your hair.

Silk pillowcase
Invest in a silk pillowcase to keep the hair in its best possible condition. The smooth material will keep your hair from tangling and will keep frizz at bay. Use a microfiber towel or cotton t-shirt to squeeze any moisture out. Terry cloth towels strip hair of too much moisture and cause frizz.

Take care of you
Remember to take care of your body too. You need to do internal care as well. Vitamins such as vitamin E and Omega 3 help build strong strands. Niacin helps prevent blockage of cholesterol at the pores.   Green tea also serves as a key ingredient that balances oily glands. Eating a proper diet also plays a role in keeping your locks smooth and pretty. Remember, you are what you eat!

Repair winter hair
Using an Olaplex treatment will give you super smooth hair. It is great for delivering protein to the hair before and after any chemical treatments. Legends Salon of Hillsborough carries it so ask your stylist to have it added to your color for extra protection. Getting a healthy trim once every 3 months will definitely help as well.

Protect your hair with the professional products found in the Salon Shoppe at Legends.  

​Hottest haircut for summer
Right now the look of soft, shaggy layers with a textured bang is the hottest cut for summer. It is a great way to transition out of a shorter cut or hide grown-out roots if you have them. Tell your stylist you want a lot of movement and texture, especially towards the ends and in the bangs. It also helps to show your stylist screenshots of looks that you like, as long as they are of someone with similar texture and length to yours.
