Nourish out of condition, dry, frizzy hair with Weleda Rosemary Hair Oil ($12.00). This deep conditioning treatment contains clover blossoms, as well as burdock root and rosemary, to moisturize and soothe hair and scalp. This product helps to seal the cuticle, smoothing hair and also preventing damage (including that caused by chlorine and salt, making this a great product for those who spend time in the pool or ocean!). Use just on ends, or smooth a few drops through hair and rinse. This product can also be used as a hot oil treatment, or a leave-in.
Banish Chlorine Build-Up

Chlorine is great for the pool. In your hair, it builds up over time, causing damage. UltraSwim Chlorine Removal Shampoo ($4.99) destroys the bond between chlorine and your hair, releasing the molecules with just one use. Despite the fact that it effectively removes chlorine from hair, it is gentle enough to wash with daily. Wet hair, lather, and repeat if desired to prevent chlorine damage and get hair squeaky clean.
Washing Leads to Hair Loss?

Between heat, humidity and hitting the pool, you may find yourself washing your hair more often in summer. But does washing too frequently really lead to hair loss? 
No need to panic! Even if you do notice that you’re shedding some strands, keep in mind that losing anywhere from 100-150 hairs on a daily basis is completely normal. If you are concerned about the amount of hair loss, however, it’s best to see a doctor. It’s more likely that hair loss is caused by hormones, medication, stress or nutrition than your washing routine.
Though frequent washing alone will not cause hair loss, keep in mind that dry, damaged or chemically treated hair is more likely to suffer breakage during washing. To prevent this, don’t rub too vigorously when washing or towel drying, and make sure that you condition, condition, condition! Your hair will be healthy, beautiful and more resilient.
