Hey, Houston Hotties ! Summer is in full swing, and we know you're ready to hit the pools, beaches, and backyard BBQs. But before you dive into all that fun in the sun, let's talk about keeping your hair fabulous and healthy. At Prettier Profiles, we're here to make sure your tresses stay protected from swimming and sun damage. Here are some upbeat and fun tips to keep your hair looking its best all summer long!
1. Pre-Swim Prep: Pool Party Protection
Rinse & Shine: Before you cannonball into that pool, give your hair a good rinse with fresh water. This simple step can help your hair absorb less chlorine, leaving it silky and shiny.
Condition Like a Boss: Slather on a leave-in conditioner. This creates a protective barrier and keeps your hair hydrated and happy.
Cap It Off: If you’re a regular swimmer, why not rock a swim cap? It’s not just for pros—your hair will thank you for it! Be sure to get one that will fit your head and hair density to prevent breakage Tip: Use a satin scarf to tie your hair down then cap it
Here is the link to the swim cap on Amazon:
2. Post-Swim TLC: Show Your Hair Some Love
Rinse & Repeat: After your swim, rinse your hair with fresh water to wash away chlorine or salt. It's a quick and easy way to prevent damage.
Clarify & Clarify: Use a clarifying shampoo once a week to detox your hair from any pesky pool chemicals. Your locks will feel refreshed and renewed.
Deep Condition Delight: Treat your hair to a deep conditioning treatment to replenish moisture and add that extra bounce and shine.
3. Fun in the Sun: Protect Those Gorgeous Strands
Hat's Off to You: Channel your inner fashionista with a wide-brimmed hat or a chic scarf. Not only will you look fabulous, but you'll also protect your hair and scalp from those harsh UV rays.
Spray & Stay: Invest in hair products with UV protection. A few spritzes of a UV protectant spray and you're good to go—beach ready and beautiful!

4. Hydration Station: Drink Up for Healthy Hair
Water, Water, Water: Hydrate like it's your job! Drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your hair (and skin) looking lush and radiant. Make it fun! I use a water bottle that is large and encourages you to drink more. I'll leave the link below for you.
Mask It Up: Use hydrating hair masks regularly. Look for ones with aloe vera, honey, or avocado for an extra boost of hydration. Amika has a pretty great one, and so does Prettier Profiles. It will be released soon🤪
5. Heat Be Gone: Embrace the Natural Look
Air Dry, Don’t HAIR Fry: Give those heat tools a break and let your hair air dry. Embrace your natural texture and enjoy the carefree summer vibes. I would recommend booking a curly sew-in to match your hair texture
Protect & Serve: If you must use heat styling tools, always apply a heat protectant spray. It’s your hair’s best friend in the summer heat!
