Think natural
Holidays provide a great excuse to ditch your hairdryer and straighteners and get back to basics. Take advantage of your natural hair waves and use a little serum or hair wax to define the curl. Don't waste your time on complex hairstyles - a simple hair band can create a different look when you wear your hair down or tie it up in a messy bun.
Sea salt sprays are the latest way to create beach hair at home. A mixture of water, oil and sea salt, they will add body and texture to your hair to get that surfer look, even if you're nowhere near the ocean. Be aware that they can be drying though, so they're not to be used every day.
Protect your hair as well as your skin
These days we are all aware of the importance of wearing sunscreen with a high SPF when we're on holiday, but not everyone thinks about their hair. While the sun can give your hair some attractive natural highlights, it will also dry it out and cause damage. This coupled with the effect of chemicals from the swimming pool and salt water from the sea can result in a dry frizzy mess by the end of your holiday if you're not careful.
Wear a hat when you're out during the hottest part of the day to protect both your hair and your scalp. If you've been swimming either in the pool or the sea, make sure to wash and condition your hair at the end of the day - rinsing is not enough.
Leaving conditioner in your hair and tying it up into a sleek bun is a good way to treat stressed hair - rinse it out at the end of the day and you'll be amazed at the difference. you can also use sunscreen on your hair - it will protect it and work to smooth out frizzy dry hair.
Take extra care with coloured hair
If you colour your hair just before you go away, the sun will be extra damaging and you'll probably find your colour fading fast. Wear a hat or scarf over your hair to protect it as much as possible and take some nutritive hair masques to put back the moisture the sun takes out.
Remember that swimming pools can turn blonde hair green and this is a particular risk if the hair is in bad condition. Try rinsing through your hair with plain water before you get in the pool so that it absorbs less chemicals.
