Sunscreen… yes, that’s right. Some stores may carry heat/sun protection for your hair. If you’re a pickle and can’t find any, dilute sunscreen with water and put it in a spray bottle.

Hair, like the rest of your body, needs moisture. Without it, your hair becomes dry, frizzy, damaged and easily breakable. Treat your hair with masks or oils overnight to help restore some of your lost moisture. We recommend using coconut oil or, our favorite, argan oil. If you don’t have any of these masks or oils and don’t feel like going out, you can replace them with almost anything with moisture including conditioners. Seriously though, your kitchen probably has seven different substitutes. You have no excuse.
