12 Hydrating Hair Products to Rehab Your Hair Post-Summer

By ·
hairpostsummer 1

As much as we don’t want to hit pause on our summertime, pool-side playlist, it’s time to face the music: the sunny season is quickly departing and is leaving a gaggle of weather-dried strands in its wake. While we’re definitely guilty of embracing the happy-go-lucky, carefree hair routine that usually manifests during the warmer months, we do find that it takes an extra effort to restore tresses to their former, hydrated glory. 

Though it’s not quite time to take out our carefully folded fall flannels or overindulge in pumpkin spice treats just yet, there’s no time like the present to start prepping for that post-summer hair sadness. Other than investing in a humidifier and limiting heat styling, we’ve rounded up the products that not only retain moisture, but also add an additional wave of water to autumn ‘dos.
