Hair Care

Let's talk Hair

I'm not going to lie this is one area I always struggle with. Being a curly haired aquatic educator is not the best of combinations as your hair already starts off dry.

Some of the tips we have come across for hair care and continuing to do what you love in the water

• Rinse your hair with cold water before you get into the pool. This will close the pores
• Put a leave in conditioner or mask in and wear a swim cap for your shift. If you are not wearing a swim cap ensure you tie your hair up on top of your head.
• Use oil regularly (Coconut is great but you can use any oil including olive. Sometimes olive is better for curly hair)
• Only wash with conditioner 98% of the time. Avoid using shampoo every wash
• Allow your hair to dry naturally
• Use a conditioning hair mask 2 or 3 times a week
• Check what your products have in them avoid alcohol, silicon, lots of perfume and other fake nasties
• Trim regularly
• Use vitamin C spray to remove any chlorine residual and remove the smell of chlorine from your hair.
