Best Summer Hair Care Tips for Curly Hair

Summer can be rough on curly hair. Between the sun, humidity, saltwater, and chlorine, curls take a beating, getting dry, frizzy, and harder to manage. If you’re tired of battling with your curls all season long, you’re not alone. But the good news? With the right routine and products, your curls can stay soft, defined, and healthy all summer.

Here are the best summer hair care tips for curly hair—practical, effective, and easy to follow.

1. Moisture First—Always

Curly hair is naturally drier than straight hair. Add summer heat, and you’ve got a recipe for breakage and frizz. Start your routine with a hydrating shampoo that won’t strip your curls.

Try this: Our Moisturizing Hair Shampoo is sulfate-free and gentle. It cleanses without drying out your curls, which is crucial when you’re washing more often in the summer.

2. Condition Like It Matters (Because It Does)

Conditioning is key to fighting frizz, boosting shine, and locking in moisture. In the summer, your conditioner should work overtime.

Try this: Our Evashair Hair Conditioner is rich, smooth, and lightweight. It softens curls without weighing them down and helps detangle easily, even after a beach day or a swim.

3. Leave-In Products Are Your Best Friend

After cleansing and conditioning, don’t stop there. A leave-in product seals moisture into your curls and gives them protection against the sun and humidity.

Try this: Our Moisturizing Hair Cream is a game-changer. It defines curls, adds moisture, and controls frizz. Use it on damp hair and scrunch it in from the ends up. Let it air dry or diffuse for extra volume.

4. Hands Off: Protect Your Curls from Frizz

It’s tempting to keep touching your curls when they’re soft and bouncy, but too much handling causes frizz, especially in the heat. Use tools designed for curly hair to fluff or style without disrupting the curl pattern.

Try this: The KurlsPlus Pick is gentle on curls and perfect for lifting at the roots to add volume without causing damage. Unlike metal picks, it won’t snag or break your hair.

5. Protective Styles = Less Stress on Your Hair

Protective styles like braids, twists, or buns reduce friction and keep your ends tucked away. These styles help retain length and moisture, especially when it’s hot out and you’re sweating more than usual.

Before styling, always prep your hair with moisturizing products and use a satin or silk scarf at night to reduce breakage.

6. Hydrate Your Hair Like You Hydrate Your Skin

Curly hair requires hydration from both the inside and outside. Drink plenty of water and nourish your curls with moisturizing products at every step of your routine.

Avoid alcohol-based products that dry out your curls, especially in the sun. Stick with products that are rich in natural oils, humectants, and butters.

7. Deep Condition Weekly

A weekly deep conditioning session can make a huge difference in the health of your curls during the summer. It helps restore elasticity, repair damage, and strengthen the hair shaft.

Use our conditioner with a shower cap for 20–30 minutes once a week for a deep moisture boost.
