Remember when you were embarrassed of being photographed with thinning hair?\u00a0 Those days are long behind you now!<\/p>\n But if you still feel a tinge of panic when you start planning a holiday, you aren\u2019t alone. Prepping for a trip is always stressful, and even more so when you\u2019re not sure how to protect your hair system while you\u2019re abroad.<\/p>\n Luckily, it\u2019s not difficult or expensive to maintain no matter where you\u2019re headed. From our expert stylists, here are the 5 most crucial vacation tips for alternative hair.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Whether you\u2019re traveling near or far, you absolutely must remember to pack your own products. The professional products from our salon offer a wide range of benefits, like protecting your hair from breakage, frizz, and fading.<\/p>\n You see, most climates in vacation destinations are harsh due to extreme heat, sun, humidity, and chlorine or salt water. In these locations, it\u2019s more important than anywhere else to use high-quality products designed to protect your locks.<\/p>\n Honestly, this may be the most important one of our vacation tips for alternative hair. Very few products are specifically designed to protect and nourish nonsurgical hair solutions\u2014in fact, many products will outright damage your CNC.<\/p>\n Make sure to pack your own shampoo, conditioner, and styling products to use for the duration of your trip.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text ul_position=”inside” ul_item_indent=”8%” _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_line_height=”1.5em” ul_line_height=”1.5em” header_2_text_color=”#00A8A8″ header_2_font_size=”28px” header_2_letter_spacing=”1px” header_2_line_height=”1.5em” header_3_font=”Raleway|700||on|||||” header_3_text_color=”#1F628E” header_3_font_size=”20px” header_3_line_height=”1.5em” global_colors_info=”{}”] It\u2019s easy to get caught up picturing the best parts of your trip, we get it. Give some thought to your travel days too, though.<\/p>\n If you have long hair, you may want to wear it up. Otherwise you risk causing knots and tangles while your head rests against the seat for several hours.<\/p>\n If your travel involves an open-air vehicle, think about the weather. You may want a hat, hair tie, or scarf to keep your hair protected and frizz-free.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ disabled_on=”on|on|off” admin_label=”desktop row” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_line_height=”1.5em” header_2_text_color=”#00A8A8″ header_2_font_size=”28px” header_2_letter_spacing=”1px” header_2_line_height=”1.5em” header_3_font=”Raleway|700||on|||||” header_3_text_color=”#1F628E” header_3_font_size=”20px” header_3_line_height=”1.5em” global_colors_info=”{}”] Most people with alternative hair find their own groove when it comes to their washing routine. Washing it on certain days of the week, after certain workouts, or before special events are all totally normal strategies.<\/p>\n But that\u2019s all up in the air once you start a holiday. Even if you create a daily itinerary, you have to expect the unexpected. The best way to be prepared is by washing your hair shortly before you leave for vacation.<\/p>\n When you start a trip with clean hair, you\u2019ve bought yourself at least a few days of flexibility. Starting a vacation with the hope that you\u2019ll have time to wash your hair the next morning is typically a recipe for disaster.<\/p>\n Either the morning or the night before you leave, wash and dry your hair. Your future self will thank you.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/joshuaand.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/honey-blond-in-blue.jpg” alt=”man runs hands through hair” title_text=”honey blond in blue” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” width=”70%” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” border_radii=”on|70px|70px|70px|70px” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ disabled_on=”off|off|on” admin_label=”mobile row” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/joshuaand.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/honey-blond-in-blue.jpg” alt=”man runs hands through hair” title_text=”honey blond in blue” show_bottom_space=”off” _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” width=”70%” module_alignment=”center” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” border_radii=”on|70px|70px|70px|70px” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_line_height=”1.5em” header_2_text_color=”#00A8A8″ header_2_font_size=”28px” header_2_letter_spacing=”1px” header_2_line_height=”1.5em” header_3_font=”Raleway|700||on|||||” header_3_text_color=”#1F628E” header_3_font_size=”20px” header_3_line_height=”1.5em” global_colors_info=”{}”] Most people with alternative hair find their own groove when it comes to their washing routine.
