The Curly Pool Party was a huge success! This past Saturday June 2nd in Orlando, FL we had the pleasure of talking with curly girls from around the country about summer hair care tips and product techniques. We came prepared with amika sunnies and beach balls for the attendees of the curly pool party. If you weren't able to come down don't worry, we have tons of photos to share!
Here are some great summer hair care tips that we shared at the event:
Hydrate: Stay hydrated inside and out by drinking plenty of water to avoid
dehydrating your skin and hair during the summer.
Top It: Put on a hat when you plan on being in the sun for a long period
of time. To really avoid the dryness of the sun and heat, you can put your hair
into a bun and then top it off with a hat.
Gentle Cleanse: During the summer, heavy shampoos can dry out strands. Use the
Obliphica Balance Shampoo, a gentle sulfate-free shampoo to cleanse without
drying.
For extra conditioning in
the summer, try mixing a small amount of Obliphica Hydrate conditioner into
your shampoo for a moisturizing wash.
Nourish: Always use a deep conditioner at least once every two weeks during
the summer. For a deep penetrating treatment apply the Obliphica NourishingMask with a couple of drops of the Obliphica Oil Treatment into wet hair then
wrap in shower cap. You can apply heat by wrapping a warm towel around your
hair. Leave treatment in for 30 minutes and rinse with cold water to lock in
the moisture.
Secret Weapon: Before swimming, wet hair and apply the Obliphica Hydrate Conditioner
to your hair before getting in the pool. By doing this, you are creating a
protective barrier from the chlorine.
Baby
Your Hair: After swimming you don’t
want to follow up with a harsh shampoo session. Instead, rinse chlorine out
with the Oblipica Hyrdate conditioner and a mix of the Obliphica BalanceShampoo. Follow that with a quick deep conditioning treatment with the
Obliphica Nourishing Mask.
Beat
Frizz: Styling curly hair during
those humid summer days can be tough. We suggest mixing the Obliphica CurlCream with a drop of the Obliphica Oil Treatment into the palm of your hands. Run
this mixture throughout strands for moisture and protection. Not only will this
mix help detangle strands, it will also give your hair the added benefit of
hydrating your curls while sealing in moisture to prevent water from escaping
and any water in the air from getting in.
Styling: When humidity becomes hair’s sworn enemy, sometimes our only
option is to avoid wearing our curls down completely.
Here’s a tip: Try
experimenting with different updos. Our favorite simple hairstyle for the
summer is a twisted bun.
