And just like that- the cold months are FINALLY behind us and the countdown to summer is on! Whether you plan to lounge at the beach, go for a picnic at the park, or take hikes in the gorgeous weather, one thing is for sure- it’s time to ditch the winter hat and let your hair down. From swimming and hiking to camping and picnicking, there’s no shortage of things to do outside.
While we strongly encourage you to spend your summer days outdoors, we do recommend you be mindful of the harmful effects that UV exposure, chlorine, and overall dryness can have on your hair and skin. So grab a cold drink, put on some sunscreen, and get ready to enjoy all that summer has to offer!
Without further ado, we bring you Blo’s selection of products to enhance and protect your strands and skin this summer.
UNITE 7Seconds Leave-In Conditioner
While we may think we look like the ultimate Bond girl when coming out of the water, the reality is our hair is probably a giant, tangled mess. But have no fear, 7Seconds Detangler is here to save the day (and give you your sexy rising out-of-the-water moment). UNITE’s hair detangler is a lightweight, leave-in spray designed to detangle, strengthen and protect all hair types from UV/thermal damage. This protein-based leave-in conditioner leaves hair strong and healthy while targeting tangles and knots. Did we mention it also seals the cuticle and protects hair from heat and UV rays? A must-have for beach days, keeping your locks looking healthy and beautiful all summer long.
Color WOW Dream Coat
We can’t stress this enough – Color WOW Dream Coat is the must-have product of the summer! Year by year, the #1 anti-frizz, humidity-proofing sealant in North America, is at the top of our list. This best-selling product leaves hair super glossy and ultra-smooth, with a “glass-like finish” as celebrity stylist Chris Appleton would say. Oh, and did we mention that this “magic in a bottle” mini keratin treatment lasts for up to 4 shampoos? That’s right, this is the perfect summer sidekick for a weekend at the lake house or a trip to Europe, keeping your hair silky and smooth during your much-deserved getaway.
Color WOW One Minute Transformation Styling Cream
With so many activities keeping you busy during those hot summer days, we know how challenging it can be to keep your hair looking polished and fresh when you’re constantly on the move. With Color WOWs One Minute Transformation styling cream, you can refresh any hairstyle that might have been interrupted by humidity, dryness, or sweat. This on-the-spot frizz fix smooths, tames, and de-frizzes instantly with Avocado and Omega 3’s, without leaving a waxy or greasy build-up on hair. Just quickly apply to bumps and bends then brush through with a flat brush to smooth away frizz and creases or dents caused by hair clips, ponytail clasps, headbands, and more. For a more polished look, wrap sections around a brush and hit for 15 seconds with heat from the blow-dryer. Wave goodbye to hat hair and say hello to smooth and silky locks.
UNITE U:DRY CLEAR DRY SHAMPOO
We’ve all been there – your hair is starting to look a little greasy but it’s not quite “wash day” yet. You planned out your workout and shower schedule to a T, but those hot summer days had other plans for your hair. While showering and shampooing your hair regularly is important, it’s not always possible or convenient. Whether you’re on the go or just need a quick touch-up in between wash days, the answer is clear – U:DRY Clear dry shampoo keeps natural oils in check, plus neutralizes odor, leaving styles refreshed, reset, and residue-free. U:DRY Clear dries invisible, making it ideal for people with darker roots. U:DRY Clear is perfect for all hair types, and comes in a travel-size bottle for wherever your summer plans take you.
