Pre-treating Your Hair Ahead of Summer: What You Need to Know

Summer is almost upon us, and we all love the warm weather, but your hair might not feel the same way. Hot temperatures, sun exposure, and humidity can lead to hair damage, which can be frizzy, dull, dry, and brittle. If you want to avoid these problems, the key is to pre-treat your hair before summer hits. A well-crafted pre-treatment can make a massive difference in the health and appearance of your hair. So, in this blog post, we will talk about why you need to pre-treat your hair and what products and techniques you can use to do it right.

Understand the importance of pre-treating hair

Before we dive into the details of pre-treating your hair, let's first understand why it's essential. In summer, your hair is exposed to heat, UV rays, and environmental pollutants. These factors damage your hair and lead to split ends, breakage, dryness, and colour fading. Pre-treating your hair can form a protective barrier between these harmful elements and your strands, thus reducing the damage. Besides, a pre-treatment nourishes and strengthens your hair, increases shine, and improve manageability.

Use hair masques

Using hair masques like WILDE Protein Revival and Moisture Restore is one of the most effective ways to pre-treat hair. A hair masque is a deep conditioning treatment that targets the innermost layer of your hair. It's formulated with ingredients that the hair cuticle quickly absorbs, such as proteins, vitamins, and essential oils. Hair masques help to enhance elasticity, reduce frizz, and hydrate your hair. For best results, apply a hair masque once a week and wrap your hair in a warm towel or shower cap to maximise the penetration.

Choose the right shampoo and conditioner

Using the right shampoo and conditioner is another essential step in pre-treating your hair. Different hair types have different needs, and you need to choose a product that suits your hair. For example, if you have coloured hair, go for a colour-safe shampoo and conditioner like WILDE Colour Nourish Protein Revive. If your hair is dry or damaged, nothing beats WILDE Moisture Restore hydrating shampoo and conditioner. If your hair is blonde, our soon to be released blonde shampoo will keep your blonde vibrantly refreshed. WILDE offers a range of natural, plant-based shampoos and conditioners that cater to your specific hair needs.

Protect your hair with SPF and hats

Just like your skin, your hair needs protection from the sun's harmful UV rays. Excess sun exposure can weaken your hair and lead to colour fading, dryness, and breakage. To prevent this, use SPF-infused hair products, such as WILDE UV & Thermal Protect Spray. Additionally, wearing hats or scarves can protect your hair from the sun and minimise damage.

Make regular salon treatments part of your routine

If you want to take your hair pre-treatment to the next level, book regular salon treatments. Oscar Oscar Salons offer a wide range of in-salon treatments using WILDE products. One of their most popular treatments is the WILDE signature treatment, which involves a personalised blend of natural ingredients that detox, nourish, and rejuvenate your hair. The results are immediate and long-lasting.
Pre-treating you hair before summer is an essential step to prevent damage, maintain shine, and keep your strands healthy. Hair masques, the right shampoo and conditioner, SPF-infused products, and regular salon treatments are some of the ways you can pre-treat your hair.
