After summer, we often notice that our hair feels drier, with split or brittle ends due to exposure to the sun, pool chlorine, and sea salt. Although cutting the ends may seem like the quickest solution, there are effective methods to repair them without reaching for the scissors. In this article, we share how to hydrate and revitalize your hair after summer using key products like hair masks and serums.
Intensive hydration with hair masks
The first step to avoiding cutting your ends is to restore the hydration your hair lost during the warmer months. A good hair mask can work wonders. Among the various KUBO masks, we particularly recommend the HYDRATE and REPAIR lines, as their ingredients provide a powerful anti-aging effect that deeply hydrates and repairs.
We suggest applying the mask at least once a week, or more frequently if your hair needs it. It's important to apply the mask from mid-lengths to ends and leave it on for at least 5 minutes to allow the ingredients to penetrate deeply.
Serum with mid-lenghts to ends, your new best ally
Hair serums are excellent for sealing the ends and preventing them from splitting or breaking. These are lightweight products that can be applied after washing or on dry hair to add shine and protection without weighing it down.
We recommend applying the serum to your hands, rubbing them together to warm the product, and gently running them through the mid-lengths to the ends, avoiding the roots. A few drops are enough. Just a few drops are enough. Besides nourishing, the serum helps protect your hair from external aggressors like heat styling tools and pollution.
Avoiding cutting your ends after summer isn’t just about applying products; it’s also about maintaining a consistent haircare routine. Avoid overusing flat irons and blow dryers, and protect your hair with hats or UV-filtering products when you're outdoors.
There’s no need to rush to the scissors. With an intensive hydration routine and regular serum application, you can repair damaged ends and enjoy healthy, shiny hair—even after the harshest season of the year for your locks.
