'Tis the season for hair damage courtesy of sun, sea and pool. Below, our no fail techniques for minimizing the mayhem!
1. Wet hair with clean water from a bottle prior to jumping in. Your hair will absorb less of the damaging chlorinated or salt water this way.


2. Work conditioner or intensive masq into your hair, pull back into a bun or pony and leave it in while at the beach or pool. This coating will protect hair as well as provide a thermal conditioning treatment!


3. Use products with UV filters, formulated specifically for summer hair care such as the Kerastase Soleil line or the Fredderik Fekkai Marine Summer Hair Collection.


4. Keep a plain white bucket hat in your handbag or beach bag. You'll always be able to shield your hair and face from the damaging rays of the sun without clashing with your outfit.


5. Channel the bathing beauties from decades past with a stylish swim cap! We love the Petal Swim Caps from Headcovers Unlimited or this black ruffled version on Amazon.
