Air drying hair is popular today for many good reasons. The most important reason is it doesn’t damage your hair like heat drying does. Still, people sometimes reach for the blow dryer because they don’t have the time to wait for it to air dry, or they just don’t have the patience. We completely understand both situations, but we are also here to tell you there are ways to cut down the drying time without using heat. Using a sulfate free shampoo in the shower is recommended, and then simply wringing out your hair gently before getting out can speed up the air drying process. Here are some more tips on how to air dry your hair most effectively this summer.

Use A Protective Hair Serum

No one likes to use heat drying during the hot summer months, so incorporating a protective hair serum is a great alternative. If you’ve never used a protective hair serum before, you may have to work it into your hair a few times before you see the results you desire. Not only will this product speed up the air drying process, it will also keep your hair protected from the heat when you’re outdoors during the summer days.

Believe it or not, sometimes washing your hair too often can slow down the air drying process. Use your sulfate free shampoo every other day at the most for the best results with your hair and quicker air drying. When you wash too frequently, your hair will be working harder to replace the natural oils that were removed during the washing process. The result could be longer times to dry. Another small tip is to not get out of the shower with your hair soaking wet. Simply run your fingers through your hair and gently squeeze it before stepping out so it’s not saturated when starting the drying process.

A Little Sun Protection Goes A Long Way

Not only does sun protection for hair keep it protected from the sun’s UV rays, it can also speed up the air drying process. There are a lot of different products on the market, so be sure to check with your stylist to ensure you’re using the safest one possible. It’s always good to incorporate sun protection for hair during the hot summer months, and you can start reaping the benefits in other ways as well when you use it.
