Summer hair myths, debunked

We're setting the record straight on common summer hair care myths. Because you deserve to enjoy sunny days without stressing over your hair.
Myth: Daily shampooing is a summer must.
Actually... no. Washing your hair daily can lead to dryness, frizz, and a stressed-out scalp. We know sweat days make a cleanse feel necessary, but try these refreshing options instead:
Co-wash to gently cleanse without stripping
Use dry shampoo to stretch time between wash days
On wash days, reset with a scalp scrub or cleansing shampoo
Myth: A little water tames frizz.
Temporarily, yes. But once your hair dries, the frizz often comes back more than before. Use a leave-in conditioner for longer-lasting smoothness.

Myth: Saltwater is secretly healthy for your hair.
Saltwater gives you texture, but it pulls moisture from your hair. Always rinse and rehydrate.
Myth: Hats = hair loss.
Only if they’re too tight or dirty. Otherwise, hats are your best friend for scalp protection.
Myth: Lemon juice is a safe way to heighten hair.
It can lighten your hair, but it’s very drying and can lead to damage over time.
Myth: Sunscreen on your scalp causes hair thinning.
FALSE, But sunburned scalps? Very real. Use SPF for your scalp, especially at your part line.
