TANGLES: A CUT ABOVE THE REST! JUNE 21, 2014
No season is more appreciated than summer once it finally arrives. This year, that seems especially true! While we love the summer weather and activities that come with it, sometimes our hair can suffer in the humidity and sun.
In the summer months, we tend to forget about our hair or simply aren’t aware of the issues that can become quickly problematic.
This article can help you tackle some of the problems our hair falls victim to such as colour fading, damage, build up, and frizz.
Colour Fading
1. Be sure you’re using a UV protective shampoo.
Many department store shampoos and
conditioners don’t protect your hair against UV
rays. Your hair, like your skin, can become
damaged by the sun’s rays. It’s important to
defend against such damage. As the sun
penetrates the hair it also causes fading of your
rich colour! One line to consider for the summer
months is Redken’s Colour Extend line. The
range of products
will help your
colour stay rich and
vibrant between
visits to the salon!
2. Deep conditioning
can be a colour
saver. Using a deep
conditioning treatment on a weekly basis in the
summer takes only 15-30 minutes out of your
day. It will leave your hair feeling silky, add
shine, but most importantly, it will ensure that
the cuticle (outermost layer of your hair) is
closed and sealed so that your colour can’t
escape!
3. Consider lightening up. Ask your stylist about
adding a few lighter highlights. Lighter shades
can help hide fading colour and even extend the
time between colours by hiding the appearance
of regrowth. Even a shade or two lighter can
make maintenance in the summer months
simpler for both you and your stylist!

Chlorine Build-up
1. A weekly
clarifying
shampoo is
key! We all
love the pool
on those hot
summer days!
Unfortunately, the chlorine and other chemicals
can cause damage. Redken’s Hair Cleansing
Cream helps to remove all sorts of build-up from
mineral and hard water to chlorine. Using a
clarifier can protect your hair from harsh build-
up and help prevent breakage through the
summer!
2. Condition your hair before you swim. Putting
conditioner in your hair before getting in the
pool or lake helps to protect the hair from
damaging debris or chemicals. While the
conditioner will rinse out in the water after a
little while, it will give you a window of defence.
If you’re an avid swimmer who wears a swim
cap, coating your hair with a liberal amount of
conditioner can make removing the cap much
easier and pain-free when you’re done your laps!
3. Rinse right after swimming. A heavily
chlorinated pool means you should rinse your
hair immediately after you get out. This helps
close the cuticle of the hair again to protect
against environmental damage. Once the smell
of chlorine is gone from your hair while you’re
rinsing, you can get back to your favorite
summer activities!
4. Comb gently! Chlorine opens the cuticle of the
hair and settles inside which is why it’s so
stubborn to remove! It also makes the hair very
brittle and can dry it out. Be sure to be extra
careful when detangling after you’ve been in the
pool. Begin combing from the ends of your hair
with a wide-tooth comb and work your way up
to your scalp to prevent tearing and ripping the
hair. This will prevent large knots and pulling
pains as well!
Dry Hair and Split Ends
1. Here, moisture is key! The Redken Extreme line
is sure to be
your best
friend in the
hot season.
Extreme Anti-
snap leave-in
treatment can
be left on
throughout the
day to guarantee that your hair doesn’t get too
dried out.
2. You can try oils such as Orofluido on the ends to
help lock in moisture and prevent future split
ends. Your stylist will know which oil is best for
you and whether or not it will weigh your type of
hair down.
3. Be sure you’re getting a regular trim.
Sometimes it’s hard to find the time in the
summer to make an appointment with your
stylist, but it’s important! Getting a trim every 4-
6 or 6-8 weeks (depending on how your hair
grows) is the only remedy for split ends once
they’ve started. Products that claim to ‘heal’ split
ends aren’t reversing the damage; unfortunately,
nothing helps the end once it is split, the only
solution is to cut it off. Popping in for a regular
trim means that your stylist won’t have to take
off more length than is needed.
4. Try using cold air when you blowdry. Chances
are, your blowdryer has a ‘cool air’ setting that
you never use! Always using the hot air from
your blowdryer can dry out your hair and cause
it to become brittle and damaged. The cool air
setting may take a few moments longer than the
hot, but it can save your hair from drying out.
And in the summer, a shot of cool air can be
refreshing!
Humidity Woes
1. Smoothing or hydrating shampoos and
conditioners will keep
your hair manageable
and help to fight
against frizz.
2. Anti-humectant
products such as
Redken’s Two Smooth
or Align help to repel
humidity

from opening the cuticle of the hair which causes
excess frizziness. These product types keep
unmanageable frizz to a minimum!
3. Make sure your hair is dry. Having your hair
100% dry means humidity has a harder time
getting into the hair. When hair is damp, the
cuticle of your hair is still slightly open and
stepping into humid conditions means your hair
will continue to absorb the moisture that’s in the
air causing that puffed-up look. If your hair is dry,
the cuticle of the hair is closed, sitting flat, and
protecting against unwanted moisture collection.
4. Cool down! If you flatiron your hair, be sure it
has cooled completely otherwise, your hair will
react to the humidity and your hard work will be
for nothing. Hair is still malleable from heat for
several minutes after you’re finished with the
section; so, confirming that it is completely cool
will assure your straight hair stays throughout
the day!
Follow some of these tips and tricks and your hair will remain gorgeous all throughout the summer! Remember, everyone’s hair is different: you and your stylist are the ones who know it best so consult your stylist if you’re having issues. They will help sort out any problems you’re having and keep your hair perfect throughout the summer and every other season!
Earlier this month, the team at Tangles Hair Designs participated in the Hike for Hospice run by Wellington
Hospice. Wellington Hospice has been providing for the community since 1980. They are a charity network that is heavily volunteer supported and Tangles Hair Designs wanted to help in their great cause and effort. We set up a small donation jar in the salon and we want to thank each and every one of you who generously donated.
Altogether we raised over $300.00 for the Hike for Hospice!
The team made it out to the Ignatius Jesuit Center around 10:00am on Sunday, June 1st. We were clad in our Hospice Wellington t-shirts and ready to hike! There were three main hikes that participants could take part in. The 5K; for the seasoned veteran, the 3K; for the enthusiastic novice, and the historical walk; for the casual stroller. The event was a great get together for all ages and the warm feel of the occasion was highlighted by the fact that we all enjoyed getting involved in our community!
The hike had a number of different events ongoing for the 10th anniversary of Hospice Wellington. Cake was served, faces were painted, caricatures were drawn and raffles were chosen from! The lively music kept us all in a great mood and the Hospice Team had a number of other events planned for the day.
Kevin Kelly of Guelph’s radio station, Magic 106.1, was the master of ceremonies for the event and what a terrific job he did. A community weave was held in honour of loved
ones passed and this truly let the community spirit of Guelph shine. As well, hikers saw a burning ceremony of last year’s community weave to signify new beginnings.
Hospice “passports” were stamped and upon collecting 10 of the 15 possible stamp locations people were entered to win a draw. Play with Clay, Guelph’s interactive pottery studio, showed up to make the day fun for those of all ages!
From 1pm – 3pm there was ballroom dancing, a drumming circle, belly dancing, and the adorable puppy parade! Who could resist that?
Alongside all of the wonderful donators, Tangles would also like to thank the Hospice Team for being so informative throughout the whole process. We couldn’t have done it without the Guelph community and the Hospice team!
