It’s summer, so you can look for us floating in the pool with a cocktail in hand. On a hot day, we’re obvs getting in the water to take a dip, but there’s one small issue — we don’t want the chlorine to mess with our carefully styled locks. Swimmer hair is a real #struggle. Luckily, with just a few additions to your summer style kit, you won’t have to worry about your strands drying out or your recent dye job getting destroyed. Here’s all that you’ll need to jump right in.
