Don't Skip the Pre-Travel Prep
Before you head out on your fun-filled trip, don't forget to swing by Combers Salon for a quick snip and a turbo-charged treatment. A little trim will get rid of those dead ends, keeping breakage and frizz away. And while you're at it, why not throw in a pampering hair treatment to get your locks prepped to face sun, sea and fun.
Thinking of switching up your colour? We love that for you. Just make sure to do it at least a week before takeoff — your scalp will thank you.
Top Tip: Toss a sulphate-free shampoo and conditioner into your suitcase. They’re kind to coloured hair and will keep your strands feeling soft and easy to manage while you're on the move.
Protect Your Hair from Sun Damage
UV rays, pool chlorine and salty waves are not your hair’s best friend — we know, it's sad. So be sun savvy, and opt for a fabulous hat, baseball cap or breezy scarf. Bonus points if it matches your outfit! Before swimming, make sure you rinse your hair with fresh water, then do the same again after you get out. This will protect your locks during and after your dip. Add a leave-in conditioner or hair oil once your day outdoors is over to keep your hair soft, moisturised and easy to manage.
Top Tip: Pack a UV-protective hair mist in your beach bag— it’s like SPF, but for your hair. Shine, softness and sun protection in one happy spritz!
Banish the Frizz
Humidity can be difficult to manage, but luckily, we know how to keep it at bay. Protect your hair by keeping it in a low-maintenance hair style like a messy bun, beach braid or chic ponytail. If you must reach for the styling tools, always remember to use a heat protectant, and opt for a low heat setting. Want hair that behaves? Feed it with a travel-sized hydrating mask every few days to enjoy silky locks on the go.
Top Tip: Bring a silk scarf and wrap your hair before bed. You’ll wake up with a holiday glow, instead of a bird's nest!
