When you are fresh from the shower, don't rub and pull at your hair with a towel. Instead, use a blotting method and be gentle. When you come to comb through your wet hair - Denman's D24 Detangling Comb, £2.56 is great for this - be sure to add a rich oil to the mid-length ends. This will help reduce tangling, and make it much easier to glide through the hair, especially if it's long. It will also cut down on excessive frizz and prevent damage.

 Summer hair comes with its own set of problems: a combination of humidity and high temperatures can result in frizz disaster.  Using an oil such as Moroccanoil Original treatment, £32.85 on wet hair will speed up drying time and leave you with smoother hair. Once dry, styling spray such as Moroccanoil Dry Texture Spray, £17.45 or Sam McKnight Cool Girl Texturising Spray, £25 gives the hair some grip and a texturised hold. Just spray it through the hair and create texture with your fingers. The effect is a gritty finish that is perfect for a softly wavy, effortlessly undone style.

 Over the summer months, your hair looks and feels dry because you are exposing it to a variety of harmful environmental conditions. An excess of UVA/UVB rays, sea water and chlorine all dehydrate your hair. To help to repair the damage, use a product to strengthen the hair strands. Moroccanoil Mending Infusion £26.85 and Restorative Hair Mask £32.85 or Phytoplage Sun Veili £15 are all good options. To finish, add a loosely tied ribbon.
