Three Tips for Healthy and Hydrated Hair
It’s no secret that dry, damaged hair can result from a blow-dry addiction or consistent colour. Neglect of your precious ends can cause frizz, split ends and even breakage. Unfortunately, your daily hair care routine might be the culprit for your dry and brittle ends, like the overuse of heat styling and improper use of products. Whether you have put your hair through hell or are just trying to maintain your healthy locks, we’ve got you covered, babe. If you want to obtain your ultimate hair goals, try these tips to keep your hair in tip-top shape.
1. Mask up.
Sometimes your hair needs a little TLC, and the perfect way to do that is with a hair mask. Hair masks help to tame frizz and repair breakage. They also aim to quench your thirsty hair and provide moisture throughout your locks. They are super rich in hydrating ingredients and are heavier than your typical conditioner to really penetrate your strands. The Io Vivo Moisture Mask is formulated with watermelon, orange and kiwi seed oil to nourish your damaged hair. Plus, the added hemp seed butter softens your strands to fight your frizz.
2. Handle wet hair with care:
Wet hair needs just as much care as your dry and styled strands. Actually, your hair is more susceptible to damage when wet than dry. That is why it needs to be treated as gently as possible (that means no more messy buns right out of the shower!). With ingredients like safflower oil and coconut milk, the Io Vivo Hair Milk helps to hydrate and strengthen your strands. Spray onto damp hair and use a wide-tooth comb to brush it through. Also, try opting for a microfiber towel instead of a generic cotton one to prevent frizz and split ends.
3. Keep an eye out for the right ingredients:
Good products go a long way, so ways invest in the best for your hair; it’s totally worth it! Look for products that are rich in vitamins and minerals that nourish your hair. Also, keep an eye out for products containing sulphates, parabens and phthalates (eww!) that will strip your hair of its natural oils, causing dryness and damage. Io Vivo’s Hydrating Hair Oil is free of anyharsh chemicals. It is also formulated with jojoba oil that helps to moisturize your scalp and treat frizz. This multitasking oil prevents heat/UV damage and can be used after a blowout or as a leave-in overnight treatment.
