Chlorine and saltwater can be harsh on your hair, so it's important to protect it before you take a dip.

After swimming, rinse your hair with fresh water to remove any salt or chlorine residue. .

  1. Avoid Heat Styling

Heat styling tools like flat irons and curling irons can cause damage to your hair. Instead of using these tools, let your hair air dry or try using a diffuser attachment on your blow dryer. When you do use the diffuser, make sure you use it on your lowest heat and lowest power setting.

You can also try styling your hair while it's still damp to achieve a natural, beachy wave.

  1. Trim Your Hair Regularly

Regular trims are essential for keeping your hair healthy and preventing split ends. Schedule a trim every 6-8 weeks to keep your hair looking its best. Trimming your hair regularly will also help keep it looking full and voluminous.
