Summer do a number on your hair? Here are some essentials to bring life back to your locks!

9/15/2017

When we think of "Summer" or "Beachy" hair, we think of some sea breezy, slightly rough hair, like the gorgeous girl on the right. Natural, carefree, a little messy. And that may be how it looked in July, going into August. But unless your stylist gave you a once over before the school year...

The reality is that most of us end summer with our hair looking like this - super dry, scraggly, uneven - and feeling like straw. It's stiff, the ends won't do anything, and it just feels terrible between the fingertips. Your usual shampoo and conditioner doesn't do anything.

And forget about trying to style it. A blow out collapses, and any attempts make it look like you're an extra from The Goldberg's on ABC.

So, unless you are ok with wearing your Halloween Costume from now through October 31, you probably want a fix for post-summer hair blues.

That's where I step in.

the power of conditioning treatments

Picture
Most of us think of "Conditioning Treatments" and think it's just a matter of leaving conditioner on the ends of the hair for an extra 10-15 minutes, or that it's nothing more than a more concentrated hair conditioner, but that's not the case. A conditioning treatment doesn't just moisturize the hair, though it can. There are conditioning treatments that strengthen the hair, that moisturize the hair, can control frizz, and actually help to repair broken bonds. Each treatment serves a different purpose. So, for after summer care, here is what I recommend:
Picture

  • Paul Mitchell's Tea Tree Hair & Scalp Care Treatment
Picture
Invigorating and Soothing - In-Salon Treatment Fall Special $25 (usually $30)
Summer sun and heat not only does a number on your hair, but on your scalp, as well. Sea salt and minerals build up from time at the beach and outdoors, chlorine builds up on the scalp, drying out the skin terribly, causing itching, dryness and/or oiliness, and discomfort. Paul Mitchell's Tea Tree Hair & Scalp Treatment is a unique treatment for both hair and scalp—soy, panthenol, vitamin E and shea butter condition and protect the hair, while salicylic acid refines and improves the texture of the skin. What's fantastic is that you can come into the salon for a deep-conditioning treatment, complete with a clarifying shampoo to get chlorine and salts out of the hair, go under heat, and have an exfoliating scalp massage, and you can take the product home to give yourself maintenance treatments. 
  • Strengthens and Moisturizes – Soy proteins, panthenol, vitamin E and shea butter help recondition, repair and protect the hair.  
  • Refines – Natural salicylic acid, derived from willow bark, refines and improves the texture of the skin.  
  • Invigorates – The unique combination of tea tree oil, peppermint, and lavender creates a refreshing fragrance experience.
This treatment is enjoyed by both men and women.

  • Paul Mitchell's Tea Tree Lavender Mint Moisturizing Mask
    Relaxing In-Salon Treatment - $25
    One of the newest additions to the Paul Mitchell Tea Tree line, the Lavender Mint Moisturizing Mud Mask has been a hit, revitalizing tired hair. Lavender Mint Deep Conditioning Mineral Hair Mask is soothing and helps strengthen and hydrate moisture-starved hair.
Clients who have indulged this summer consistently remark on how much better their hair feels immediately after the treatment, as well as the days that follow.
  • This ultra-rich French clay mask hydrates and strengthens moisture-starved hair with restorative minerals. Offer it as an indulgent upgrade at the Wash House or recommend that guests use it at home between salon visits. The luxurious texture and blissful Lavender Mint fragrance transform any service into a spa experience.
    • Helps strengthen and hydrate moisture-starved hair
    • French clay deep conditions with restorative minerals
    • Calms the senses

  • Paul Mitchell's Awapuhi Wild Ginger Treatments
    KetraTriplex/HydraTriplex In-Salon Only Treatments - $35
    ​Awapuhi (pronounced ah-va-poo-hee) is a wild ginger native to Hawaii. Paul Mitchell was one of the first major brands to harness Awapuhi's unique qualities benefitting hair. In order to preserve the purest Awapuhi, Paul Mitchell's Awapuhi Wild Ginger line uses extracts from wild Awapuhi, vs farmed Awapuhi, from a private reserve where the Awapuhi is allowed to grow "free range."
    • Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Wild Ginger HydraTriplex™ Treatment
      • ​Revive dry, frizzy hair with a rich, concentrated blend of amino acids, vegetable proteins and nourishing oils. A single shot of HydraTriplex™ Treatment works on three levels to instantly nourish and soften parched strands, as well as improve hair manageability. The cream formula penetrates the hair to hydrate, bind and seal every cuticle for a long-lasting silky-smooth feel.
      • The Single Shot quenches dry hair with instant results
      • Professional salon service for dry, frizzy or coarse hair
      • The triple action of our exclusive HydraTriplex™ technology deeply penetrates to HYDRATE, BIND and SEAL the hair with rich moisturizing ingredients
    • ​​Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Wild Ginger KeraTriplex® Treatment
      • A single ampoule of KeraTriplex® Treatment rebuilds fragile locks, helps prevent color fade and improves shine, while Keratin Intensive Treatment® restores their super-soft texture.
      • Transform broken, brittle strands into pillars of strength while protecting hair from future damage. This liquid formula of isolated proteins is virtually identical to the keratin found in human hair.
      • ​Ideal for naturally dry, brittle hair, sun-damaged hair and lightened or chemically treated hair. The single-shot vial of a highly concentrated complex of keratin proteins instantly penetrates into damaged hair to repair, rebuild and seal the cuticle—the only complex available that is virtually identical to the keratin found in human hair.
  • Demineralization/De-Chlorination Treatment
    An Extra Vigorous Shampoo that Removes
    ​Chlorine and Salts from Hair - $25
Picture
Using a Yaffa Beauty by Rica "Secret" Cocktail, including Paul Mitchell's Shampoo Three, chlorine and other salt deposits are removed from the hair,  removing discoloration due to pool and beach swimming, and exposing fresh and extremely clean hair, leaving a blank canvas for color, cutting and normal shampoo and conditioning.
  • Paul Mitchell's MarulaOil - Rare Oil Intensive Masque Treatment
    Get Your Hair to Begin Repairing Itself - In-Salon Treatment - $40
Picture

  • Ideal fo r dry, dull, damaged, thick, coarse or unruly hair or fine hair that has suffered serious damage.
  • This rich, intensive masque replenishes and dramatically transforms hair. Cold-pressed marula oil and time-release MarulaSpheres deliver powerful antioxidants and long-lasting hydration over time to restore elasticity, help seal split ends, and leave hair smoother, softer and more manageable.
  • Time-release MarulaSpheres adhere to the hair shaft and break open every time you brush or touch your hair, releasing fresh bursts of marula throughout the day.
  • Packed with powerful antioxidants, oleic acids, protein and vitamins, this replenishing, protective formula delivers intense hydration, seals split ends, prevents damage and provides UV protection. 
  • Oleic acid (also called Omega-9) is an acid our bodies can create whenever it has a caloric surplus. Oleic acid will also control water loss in your strands while making your hair softer and more pliable.
  • Hair is thicker and shinier with hair care products that have the Oleic acid as the main ingredient.
All of these treatments are available at Yaffa Beauty by Rica, including their take home companions. We hope to see you soon!

This is very informative! Effective treatments for some types of hair loss are available, from nonmedical solutions to medications and surgery to promote hair growth and slow hair loss. It same as Haarlem Oil and Haarlem Oil for Human (www.horses-haarlem-oil.com/product-category/shop) made by French people in France very effective products also good for fighting against viruses. I love the journey of my research from this website. Hope you do more blog post here about health. Thank you and God bless.

Thanks for helping me understand that most of us would have dry, scraggly, and uneven hair during the summer. With that in mind, I hope to find a restorative hair treatment oil that I can buy for my hair. It's because my hair has been dry ever since I started having surfing lessons this year.
