The salon's CEO, stylist and make up artist Eniss Agrebi knows that it's better

• to wet the hair with fresh water before jumping into the pool or sea; this way, not so much chlorine or salt can penetrate into the already wet hair.
• to rinse the hair well after bathing. Especially after bathing in the sea, it is very important because the salt also removes fat and moisture from the hair and scalp. Result - brittle and dry hair.
• to tie the hair together for protecting it from direct sun and wind. Use a spiral hair accessory or a hair band without a metal bar. Especially in hot temperatures, you should not use hair accessories with metal pieces, because the heated metal can burn and break the hair.
• to wash the hair daily and care with masks and/or conditioners which moisturize the hair and scalp.
