Regimen and style tips for healthy, hydrated summer hairstyles

 

If humidity is leaving you weary of managing your hair, or if you’re pondering turning bedhead into a beauty statement with beachy waves, plaits or twists—we’re here to help. Here’s your low-maintenance hair care and hairstyle plan to help keep your strands and locs lush, healthier-looking and ready for the day all vacation (and summer) long.

 

 

Your summer holiday hair care and styling routine

 

From short and highlighted pixie cuts to braided tresses—hair of all cuts, colors, styles, types and textures loves a replenishing and nourishing hydration regimen. Start with 94% naturally-derived1 ingredients. Here’s your simple day and night routine.

 

STEP 1: CLEANSE & CONDITION

Nutriplenish shampoos and conditioners: Gently cleansing, supercharged hydration packed with our signature superfood complex of mango butter, organic coconut oil and pomegranate oil to instantly replenish, soften and add shine to your hair. Choose light or deep moisture based on your hair type and hair texture. (If you need help choosing the right formula, read more here.)

 

 

STEP 2: TREAT

Nutriplenish leave-in conditioner: Formulated with a sand ginger–derived UV filter, our leave-in conditioner helps protect hair from the drying effects of the sun. Our award-winning treatment hydrates and replenishes for up to 72 hours while detangling and protecting from thermal styling up to 450° F. For highly textured hair, try nutriplenish daily moisturizing treatment, which melts moisture deeply into hair and contains 8X the superfood complex oils and butters compared to the nutriplenish leave-in conditioner.

 

 

 

STEP 3: STYLE

Our nutriplenish styling treatment foam is a hydrating must-have for medium to thick hair types to provide heat protection, flexible hold, natural shine and it’s a great go-to for refreshing second-day curls.2

For superfood-charged curl definition and shine, use nutriplenish curl gelée to elongate curls, waves and coils while defending humidity and frizz for up to 24 hours.

 

STEP 4: REPLENISH

NEW nutriplenish replenishing overnight serum: Increases hair hydration by 72%3 and helps restore lost moisture with vital nutrients to dry strands. This lightweight, pillow-proof and superfood-infused formula is safe for all hair types (including chemically processed hair) and is 99% naturally derived.1

Multi-Use Bonus Addition: Our nutriplenish multi-use hair oil offers five ways to hydrate: as a pre-shampoo hydrator, a leave-in treatment, for post-styling shine, as an overnight oil treatment, or for a hydrating scalp massage.
