Turning Up the Heat – Advice to Share With Your Clients to Protect Their SHE Hair Extensions From Summer Heat

With summer in full swing and the sun dialing up the heat many people may find themselves wanting to spend more time outside. While soaking up rays, lounging at the pool, and evening strolls downtown may be fun and great ways to spend one’s free time, rising temperatures can pose a very real challenge for hair extensions. Much like with your natural hair, exposure to increased heat can cause damage to your extensions. Heat, humidity, sweat, and other environmental factors can lead to frizz and tangling, brittleness, sweat-induced buildup at roots, and shortened overall life for installs. With proper care and maintenance however, your client can extend the life of their hair extensions and enjoy longer lasting summer locks. Let’s look at some ways for your clients to protect their hair extensions and get the most out of them. Reshare them!

Wear Looser Hairstyles
Loose hairstyles like messy braids and simple ponytails can help minimize exposure to the sun and prevent damage.

Wash Less Often
Washing hair too often can remove important natural oils from the hair and scalp, leading to dryness for both natural hair and hair extensions.

Accessorize with Headwear
Wearing a hat or scarf can be a great way to protect hair extensions from the sun’s UV rays and extend their life.

Reduce Heat Exposure
Hair and extensions are naturally exposed to more heat in the summer, so relying less on heat styling can help reduce damage over time.

SHE Hair Extensions offers an incredible selection of hair colors, textures, and styles and can give your clients their very best look all year round. Teach them how to best care for their hair extensions during the summer months and arm them with the knowledge they need to enjoy the summer heat while also enjoying their hair extensions for as long as possible.
