Hairstyles for your beach holiday
When you head off on your summer holiday, you need to protect your hair to make sure it doesn’t get damaged. But protecting and styling your hair isn’t always easy when the beach is involved! Unless you go for the wet-look effect! This gives hair a sexy, wet-look finish and keeps it protected all day long.
For wet-look hair on the beach, forget hair gel and instead use sun protection. “People with fine hair can use light-textured liquids or sprays. If you have thicker hair, use an anti-UV cream. These products will create a subtle wet-look effect on any hair type. Apply the product evenly across your hair for a perfect wet-look finish.
After applying the sun protection, tie up your hair to avoid it being damaged through contact with the sea or sand. “Sand and salt are not good for your hair. Make sure you always have a bungee band handy in your bag when you’re at the beach. The wet-look chignon is a perfect beach hair solution. Opt for this hairstyle, simple and glamorous for any situation!
To create a flawless wet-look chignon, there are a few steps you should follow. “Hair must appear slightly wet, not greasy. To achieve this, apply your sun protection evenly and be careful not to use too much. Once the product has been applied, pull your hair back. To make sure your hair doesn’t look too flat, backcomb your hair at home before heading to the beach. Create a messy chignon, perfect for summer.
Our tip: Make sure you rinse your hair after a day at the beach, especially after applying sun care products. Wash it using shampoos and products for your hair type. This will remove any residue from your hair and your scalp, which is even more vulnerable.
