Whether you are dockside or fire side this long weekend, fretting about your hairstyle (or your kids’) and spending hours trying to harness your mane should be the least of your concerns. Pantene Consulting Stylist, Justin German,shares his secrets when it comes to ‘roughing’ it cottage style with these time saving hair tips. Embrace the Sun “Adding a dab of conditioner to your hair before heading into the lake or sitting out in the sun offers protection from the elements. Additionally, the conditioner can also act as a styling agent since it is activated by the heat from sun. Let the rays do the work as the conditioner supercharges the moisture and keep tresses manageable all weekend long.” HOW TO:
Keep it simple “Try a messy updo or a simple ponytail so you aren’t constantly having to reach for product or worry about your locks. Use a BB crème when you go camping or cottaging. It is the perfect all-in-one product for shine, protection, frizz and more, so you don’t need a convoy just for your supplies.” HOW TO:
Let Hair Curl While You Sleep “Free yourself from your usual routine of heated tools. Luxurious curled locks are easy to achieve with minimal prep time. One of my ultimate time saving tips works while you’re getting you’re asleep.” HOW TO:

7/15/2018 0 Comments 5 Hair-Saving Shampoo ProductsSwimmers know just how quickly their hair can dry out after finishing practice – it can feel like it’s turning into pieces of straw. This dry, brittle hair stems from hours of chlorine exposure in the water. When the hair shafts absorb chlorine, the hair is stripped of its natural protective oil. Repeated exposure to chlorine in practice can cause your hair to crack and eventually split at the ends.
While chlorine is unavoidable as a swimmer, a few good options exist to preserve the health of your hair! Hair Break-Down Although your hair can begin to split, chlorine has not been found to cause hair loss among swimmers. Waiting too long to wash your hair, however, can result in hair discoloration – notably a silvery tint. Discoloration stems from oxidized metal (mostly copper) finding its way into the cracks of the hair cuticles. Once the hair cuticles become severely damaged, more space is available for the metals to settle in your hair. Because chlorine can damage your hair so quickly, it is necessary to wash out your hair soon after exiting the pool. It is essential to protect your hair after each practice and meet. Here are five shampoos that are perfect to use to avoid “swimmer’s hair.” 1. TRISWIM TRISWIM is one of the top chlorine-defense shampoos on the market. Its formula includes ingredients such as Organic Aloe Vera, Vitamin A and E, and ProVitamin B5 to truly hydrate your hair. It removes chlorine, salt water, and any green tint your hair may be building up. Not only will it leave your hair clean, healthy and soft, but it will also leave your skin moisturized. 2. dpHUE This clarifying shampoo works best for swimmers with color-treated hair. Some shampoos contain sulfate which can lead to premature fading, but dpHUEswaps sulfate for Vitamins A and E for optimal hair cleansing. It will leave your hair soft and won’t fade away your awesome color. 3. Ultra Swim This shampoo uses the same classic hair cleansing ingredients to leave your hair more voluminous and shinier than before. It eliminates all chlorine, copper, and oxidized metal build up to leave your hair clean and damage-free. Another perk is that this can be used in any type of hair: colored, permed, chemically treated or relaxed. 4. Paul Mitchell Shampoo Three This shampoo is the “stylist” option. It is very good smelling shampoo to leave your hair smelling fresh. To ensure that this product works best, it is recommended to leave the shampoo sitting in the hair for a couple minutes as it works its magic. This product is paraben free and vegan! 5. Solpri Swim and Sport This shampoo has a main ingredient of Vitamin C, which does a good job at breaking down chlorine from the hair and skin. This bottle comes as a shampoo and body wash combination which makes it easier to carry around one bottle at all times. This product is safe for kids and sensitive skin! Be a Healthy-Haired Swimmer While you may love picking at your split ends, know that there is a better way to spend your down-time. Make sure you take good care of your hair after each time you are in the water! Protecting your hair will keep it looking healthy and fresh throughout this summer season.

The weather is usually pretty nice (not too hot or cold) and most people have a three-day weekend, which makes this a perfect time to get out of town. On the other hand, camping can wreak havoc on your beauty routine and add some extra damage to your hair. But have no fear! With these five hair tips for camping, your hair will remain in tip-top condition throughout the summer.
1. Choose Your Hair Product Wisely Smothering your hair with product before you go camping is not the best idea. If you use too much hairspray, your hair will be stiff and will not be able to move freely. This will make it harder for you to clean your hair without washing it. In general, too much of any product will weigh your hair down and make it greasier. If you absolutely need to use some products, make sure to focus them towards the ends of your hair and not your scalp. On the other hand, dry shampoo is the one product you should make sure to bring. To use it, just spray on dry, dirty hair, and comb it through (the hairspray would make it harder to do this without causing damage). It works by soaking up the excess oil from your scalp, which leaves your hair feeling fresh and clean. It makes it super easy to stay clean while you are out in the wilderness. 2. Cover Up Like your skin, your hair is susceptible to sun damage, or damage from the other elements. Sun-damaged hair often has a damaged cuticle which can lead to dry, brittle hair, split ends, discoloration, and frizziness. Additionally, if your hair is exposed to the wind, it can become tangled, which can lead to breakage. The best way to protect your hair from elemental damage is to keep it covered up. Wearing hats, scarves or bandanas are a pretty common fashion, found in the wilderness. Take advantage of it and your hair will thank you. 3. Braids Braids are a fantastic way to keep your hair neatly styled while camping. They keep your hair tight against your head, which prevents it from becoming tangled. They also don’t require much hair product to look good. There are so many fashionable ways to do braids, so take advantage of them and keep your hair safe. 4. Extra Conditioner When you know that you are going to be exposing your hair to the elements and will be unable to condition your hair for a while, take extra care to condition it before you go. Do a good at-home deep conditioning treatment right before braving the outdoors. This will give your hair a little boost through your trip. Another thing you can do is use some leave-in conditioner while you are out. This tip is especially good if you plan on doing some swimming. If you will be swimming, apply some leave-in conditioner to your towel-dried hair and comb through. If not, you can still apply it on a daily basis. The only thing you should remember is to focus the conditioner more towards the ends of your hair. If you put too much near the scalp, your hair will become more greasy. 5. Keep It Combed As I have mentioned multiple times in this post, when your hair gets tangled, it is more susceptible to damage. It can get snagged on anything and will break right off. The best thing to do is make sure that your hair is not tangled. If you are wearing braids, make sure to comb it at the end of the day. If you are wearing it down, make sure to comb it more often to prevent those risky tangles.

When you know how to live without water, sewer, and electric RV connections you can do things like:
But unfortunately there’s a price to pay for escaping to dry camping destinations–mainly, shorter showers. When you’re trying to conserve water for more important things like cooking and drinking, regular hygiene habits like hair shampooing become less frequent. For men and women with long hair, daily shampooing with fresh water is a non-critical activity that usually waits until a return to civilization. Living with dirty hair is not a comfortable feeling for most of us. Lots of people don’t even like camping because it can mean skipping this important hygiene routine. However in recent years a growing number of “No Poo” advocates have tried to convince us that we should always skip it. Advocates and dermatologists alike agree that shampoos strip the scalp of healthy, beneficial oils that would normally dissipate into hair. If you suddenly stop shampooing, the oils build up in excess amounts and weigh your hair down. Instead of following a daily routine of lather/rinse/repeat with store-bought shampoos, these hard-core no shampoo enthusiasts skip daily washing. They occasionally substitute shampoos with natural household products like apple cider vinegar or aloe vera and coconut oil recipes. Going “No Poo” seems to make sense when you’re boondocking, but if you don’t like the thought of smelling like a salad, here are a couple of alternatives to keep your hair clean when dry camping. Soak up hair oil with cornstarch Cornstarch is your best bet if you don’t like fragrance in your beauty products. This household pantry item will absorb excess hair oil for almost no cost at all. Apply a light dusting of cornstarch directly to your dry hair’s roots using a disposable makeup brush, or shake it from a Parmesan cheese jar. Although it works best on blonde hair, if you’re a brunette you can minimize the white residue it leaves behind by using a delicate touch to apply it, then vigorously massaging it into your scalp. You can add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to the cornstarch for added scent. Clean hair with dry shampoo Canned dry shampoo products are on store shelves everywhere. Like commercial shampoos they range in price from a few dollars to over $20. The most common downside of these dry shampoo options is most are scented with some type of fragrance. If you’re sensitive to scents then always read dry shampoo reviews before you buy. This article first appeared on RV Life |
