Beauty Reporter: Beauty 101 Card
Cheat Sheet
1 Shampoo and condition daily with formulas that ?contain UV protection. A lightweight product ?wonit weigh down fine hair; a pearly moisturizing one keeps thick hair supple.
2 Once a week, coat strands with a rich hair mask ?to help restore luster lost to sun exposure, leaving it on for 15 to 20 minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
3 Blot hair dry with a towel. Then apply a styling ?gel or cream with UV filters, and comb it through. If you plan on swimming, work a dollop of deep conditioner with UV protection or regular leave-in conditioner through strands instead to keep them ?from absorbing sea or pool water. Comb hair from roots to ends, and reapply after you dive in.
4 Spritz dry hair with UV-shielding oil, hair ?sunscreen, or a silicone shine spray for additional protection against dullness and splitting.
5 Run a comb through hair. Pull product-coated hair into a low ponytail or bun, and secure tightly for ?a sleeker appearance. Or twist it into an easy knot, ?and pin it into place. A soft braid works well, too; ?when you unfasten it later in the day and finger-comb, strands fall into easy waves.
