The Secret to Summer Hair:
​Styles to Beat the Heat!
 
Everybody loves the summer. It’s the best time of the year, well, except for the heat. Summertime heat is tough to beat, and let’s face it ladies, it’s hard to maintain that perfect hairstyle in the blistering temperatures.  Whether it’s short hair, long hair, or natural hair, finding a great looking hairstyle and staying cool this summer is a must! So, here’s a few styles that will help you beat the summer heat while still looking fly.
 
First on our list is the Twisted Top Knot. This faithful but trendy look will never go out of style. For those gals with long hair or extensions the twisted top knot is versatile and durable. This up-do will keep the hair off of your neck and face for those family cookouts and barbecues. To tame the fly-a-ways and prevent frizz, try the MoroccanOil Treatment. This product is enriched with argan oil that will keep your tresses hydrated and smooth away all out of control frizzies.
 
The Curly Twisted Pin-Up/ Natural Roller Set is another great look that can be worn on our natural girls that love to rock curls. These two roller set styles are beautiful in that exotic kind of flare and is excellent for those hot humid days in the sun.  This style can also be achieved on relaxed or straight hair. To maintain these beautiful coils (on natural curly hair) try Design Essentials Natural Coconut & Monoi Coconut Water Curl Refresher and Design Essentials Natural Curl Stretching Crème. Edges can be maintained with Design Essentials Sleek Edge Control. For relaxed hair, these styles can be achieved by using rods and sitting under a hair dryer or by using a curling iron or wand for a springy, bouncing-curly look.
 
The Ponytail- For the girl that loves to play up her inner youthful beauty.  Ponytails are very versatile and can be styled in hundreds of ways.  This style is ideal for those with medium to long hair or extensions. Use Tancho High-Grade Tique wax to add texture and to tame those edges. Its lavender smell is harmonizing to the mind and soul.
 
Crochet Braids-For the girl that loves to switch it up a bit!  These braids are a great protective style that will keep you cool all summer long. This popular style is versatile and easy to maintain. While many women wear the braided look for this style, it can also be worn where the hair extensions are left to fall loosely. This style is great for women on vacation that wants to get away from it all.
 
Last but not least, Sew-ins are always a fashionable way to have the hair you want today! This protective style is great for summer weather.  Sew-ins are versatile and can last up to 3 months. Add a pop of color and you will be summer ready to tackle any event with that added boost of confidence, giving your hair more fullness, body and length.  Also, if you’re looking for less commitment, try using clip-ins for a quick ready to wear look. Clip-ins are easy to install and can be removed at any time. Use Design Essentials Silk Essentials Thermal Strengthening Serum to protect your weave, smooth down any fly-a-ways and give your hair that extra boost of shine. Another great product to use is MoroccanOil Blow Dry Concentrate. This item can be used to add shine, smooth and hydrate dry brittle hair or to revitalize your weave. This product can be used on dry or wet hair before blow drying; and it’s also great to use on natural pressed out hair.
 
These styles are easy to do and extremely easy to maintain. If doing it yourself doesn’t quite fit your comfort, no worries, feel free to book an appointment with Dayna at Dayna Dayne Hair Salon or walk in anytime.
