Why is it important to maintain your scalp and hair while in a protective style?
Maintaining the health of your scalp and hair is crucial, especially when wearing braided hairstyles during your vacation. Exposure to elements like salt water, sun, sweat and other environmental factors can take a toll on your hair and scalp.
To keep your braided style looking fabulous and your hair healthy, it's important to pay attention to scalp and hair maintenance. Rinse your hair with fresh water after swimming in the ocean to remove any salt or chlorine residue that can cause dryness and damage. Apply a lightweight oil or serum to your scalp and braids to keep them moisturized and nourished, protecting against dryness and breakage.
Additionally, apply sunscreen and wear a hat or use a scarf to shield your hair from direct sunlight, which can cause color fading and dryness. By taking these steps to care for your scalp and hair, you can enjoy your vacation while keeping your braided style looking fresh and your hair in optimal condition.
Prep Your Hair Before the Trip:
Prepping your hair before your trip is essential for maintaining healthy and fabulous-looking hair while on vacation. Here are some tips to prepare your hair before you embark on your journey:
Deep Conditioning: Treat your natural hair to a nourishing deep conditioning treatment with GIRL+HAIR’s hydrating hair mask a few days before your trip. This will help hydrate and strengthen your strands, ensuring they're in optimal condition for the upcoming adventure.
Trim Split Ends: Schedule a trim to get rid of any split ends or damaged hair. Trimming your hair before the trip will help keep it looking fresh and prevent further breakage during your travels.
Protective Styling: Consider choosing a protective hairstyle, such as braids or twists, before your trip. These styles can help minimize manipulation and protect your hair from the elements, reducing the risk of damage.
Scalp Care: Pay attention to your scalp by gently exfoliating it to remove any buildup or dead skin cells with GIRL+HAIR Apple Cider Vinegar rinse. This will promote a healthy scalp environment for your hair to grow and thrive.
Hydration: Ensure your hair is well-hydrated before you leave by using a moisturizing hair milk like GIRL+HAIR’s hydrating hair milk or hair oil like GIRL+HAIR’s scalp and hair strengthening oil.
By following these pre-trip hair care tips, you'll set the foundation for healthy, manageable hair during your vacation, allowing you to focus on enjoying your time away while maintaining gorgeous locks.
Cleanse On The Go:
When it comes to cleansing your hair while on the go, it's important to choose a gentle yet effective shampoo that will remove dirt, sweat, and product buildup without stripping your hair of its natural oils.
Our UNDER HAIR CARE travel kit includes a sulfate-free shampoo that is suitable for your hair type. Its sulfate-free formula effectively cleanses the scalp without stripping away natural oils. Apply the shampoo directly to your scalp using the easy-to-use applicator tip, massaging it gently to remove any sweat, dirt, or product residue. Rinse thoroughly and follow up with a hydrating conditioner.
Cleansing on the go will help keep your hair and scalp fresh, preventing any buildup or discomfort during your vacation.
Protect from Sun Damage:
The sun's harmful UV rays can damage your hair and scalp, causing dryness and breakage. Shield your hair from the sun by wearing a hat or scarf and use UV protection sunscreen to minimize sun damage.
Moisturize and Nourish On the Go:
During travel, your hair may be exposed to various elements that can cause dryness and frizz. It's essential to keep your hair moisturized and nourished throughout your trip.
Our UNDER HAIR CARE travel kit includes a lightweight and non-greasy moisturizing leave-in conditioner that provides instant hydration to your scalp and hair. Simply apply it on your scalp and braids, twists, or extensions using the applicator tip whenever your hair needs a quick boost of moisture.
Protect Your Hair at Night:
Maintaining the integrity of your protective hairstyle while sleeping is crucial. Opt for a satin or silk bonnet or scarf to protect your hair from friction and prevent frizz. It helps preserve your style while you catch up on your beauty sleep during your vacation.
Handle Your Hair with Care:
When it comes to maintaining your protective style, gentle handling is key. Avoid excessive manipulation, tugging, or pulling, as this can lead to breakage or frayed ends. Use a wide-tooth comb or your fingers to detangle your hair gently.
