(Sponsored Post) What To Do With Fried Summer Hair

It’s the end of summer, which means everyone’s hair istotally sun-and-chlorine-fried. Right? Right. If you read this blog much, youknow my hair is about two inches long, so I don’t have much to worry about interms of fried hair because I cut the ends off every five weeks. But I happento have someone here with slightly longer hair.

So when BlogHer asked if I wanted to review some Dove DamageTherapy conditioner, I said, um, YES.

My girl went to summer camp and they took her swimming threetimes a week, after which she had chlorine in her hair all day and into theevening when I finally got the opportunity to scrub it out. On top of that, wehad swimming lessons one night a week and I insisted on all of us immersingourselves in cool, soothing water every weekend of this record-heat Missourisummer. Suffice it to say, my poor child’s hair – despite washing it every dayshe was in chlorine – was FRIED.

Now, it wasn’t all due to the Dove Conditioner – I also hadthree inches cut off and began using a clarifying shampoo on her once a week –but I do think the conditioner is helping a lot. I am not kidding you – youcould fold her hair in half and it would stay before we started rehydrating it,and now it is very quickly approaching soft after one haircut, two clarifyingshampoos and two weeks of Dove Damage Therapy Daily Moisture conditioner.  This conditioner is recommended for themiddle-of-the-road-my-hair-is-not-breaking-off-yet dryness that my girl wasexhibiting, and it’s done a decent job with its FIBER ACTIVES, whatever thoseare – they work!
