My DH and I went to the beach this morning in his toy (dosen't matter the type of of car, but note that it had drop top)
So of course, I pick up my hat with the wide brim because I know it is going to be a very warm day.
I went to put that thing on my head and a big WARNING went off in my mind...Do not put that thing on your head without placing a headband on those edges or you will be very sorry Missy!
Needless, to say I went and placed my headband around my edges before I put my hat on because I did not want my already weak and slow growing edges to take a downward spiral.
So it got me to thinking, what are some of the things we need to be mindful of during the summer months. Natural and non naturals please add to the thread so that we ALL can learn and probably save some hair from the woes of summer styles and fashions.
Now I am going to recommend tips for naturals since that is what I am but everyone can add to this.
Here are my tips: I imagine naturals and non naturals can use these two tips.
No. 1: ALWAYS wear a head band around your edges before you place a hat or cap on your head. Go and get some cheap head bands all different colors to match your hats if you want. (tip-place some of those head bands in your glove compartment or purse just in case you forget)
No. 2: Place some of your hair moisturizer or hair spritz in a small spray bottle and keep that in your purse or in your glove compartment to keep your edges and hair misted during these hot summer days. Even some vegetable glycerine and some distilled water or rose water is better than nothing.
No. 3: During the summer months use more of your lighter oils for hot oil treatments since you won't have to deal with the same weather conditions as the winter months.
Okay what are your tips for the summer months?
