Styling Tips and Products for Humid Summer Weather
As summer rolls around, many of us look forward to sun-soaked days and beach getaways. However, with the warm weather comes a challenge that can dampen even the sunniest of moods—humidity. For those of us with hair that tends to frizz in humid conditions, finding the right styling tips and products is essential. In this post, we’ll explore the best hairstyles, products, and techniques to keep your hair looking fabulous all summer long.
Tips for Managing Frizz:
When it comes to styling your hair in humid weather, the key lies in how you treat it before it dries. If you prefer to air dry, make sure to apply the right products while your hair is still damp. Choosing products that cater to your specific hair texture is crucial. As the first step to managing your hair, Anh swears by Milbon’s Anti-Frizz and Indulging Hydration Collections’ shampoo and treatments. After prepping your hair, finish off with an oil or styling cream, such as the Anti-Frizz Humidity Blocking Oil or Wave Defining Cream, to help tame any frizz that may arise.
Recommended Hair Products to Combat Humidity:
To battle humidity-related issues, an anti-frizz oil is your best friend. Anh’s go-to is Milbon’s Anti-Frizz Humidity Blocking Oil, which not only helps to control frizz but also locks in moisture. This product is a game-changer for keeping your hair looking sleek and polished, even on the most humid days.
Styling Techniques for Different Hair Lengths:
While there aren’t specific styling techniques for different hair lengths, the intensity of frizz you experience will guide your approach. The more frizzy or unruly your hair is, the more hydration and moisture it will require. This also varies depending on whether your hair is straight, wavy, or curly. So, assess your hair’s behavior in humidity to tailor your routine accordingly.
Key Differences in Hair Care Routines: Summer vs. Other Seasons:
Summer requires a shift in your hair care routine with an emphasis on moisture and hydration. In contrast, spring and fall can benefit from a lighter anti-frizz oil, while winter calls for a lightweight smoothing oil to keep your strands healthy and protected from the cold. Adjusting your products based on the season ensures your hair stays healthy and manageable.
Travel-Friendly Hair Products for Summer Vacations:
When packing for summer travels, Anh recommends bringing along a selection of versatile Milbon Hair products:
– Texturizing Sea Mist 3: Perfect for achieving that airy, beachy style.
– Anti-Frizz Humidity Blocking Oil: Essential for controlling frizz and serving as a heat protectant.
– Wave Defining Cream: Ideal for air-drying and redefining waves or curls.
– Wave Enhancing Mousse: Great for thick, wavy, or curly hair looking to refine texture.
– Refreshing Dry Shampoo: A lifesaver for prolonging your look by absorbing oils and keeping your hair clean for an extra day or two.
Maintaining Volume and Hold in Humidity
To keep your hairstyle voluminous and intact despite the heat, Anh highly recommends using Refreshing Dry Shampoo. It helps absorb excess oil and adds body to your hair, keeping your style fresh. Pair this with Milbon’s Strong Hold Hairspray #7 for a flexible yet secure finish.
With the right products and techniques, you can confidently embrace the summer humidity without sacrificing your hairstyle. Remember, moisture is key, and having a few trusty products in your arsenal will make all the difference. So go ahead, enjoy the sun, and let your hair shine just as bright!
