Self-Care Sundays: Hair and Pamper Routine for the Whole Family
By Nicola Wood, Columnist & Founder of Hair Made Easi
With all of this lovely warm weather recently, your hair and skin need some extra care. Why not enjoy a relaxing self-care Sunday with the whole family?
Here’s a simple way to keep your family’s hair and skin looking healthy while spending quality time together.
-
Nourishing Hair Pre-Treatment
Begin with a nourishing pre-treatment to hydrate and protect against the cold. Adults can use oil or a deep conditioning mask, while kids will benefit from a light leave-in conditioner or detangling spray.
-
Scalp Massages
Make scalp massages a fun, family bonding moment. Gently massage each other’s scalp to boost circulation and relax. This simple ritual helps promote hair growth and feels like a mini head spa.
-
Shampoo and Condition
Use sulfate-free shampoos and hydrating conditioners to keep hair soft and healthy. For kids, stick with gentle formulas, and for adults, opt for extra moisture-boosting products to fight the dryness of autumn air.
-
Deep Conditioning
Once a week, treat everyone to a deep conditioning session. For a fun twist, pop on some shower caps, put on cozy robes, and let the conditioner do its magic while you all relax and put a film on together.
-
Gentle Detangling
Post-wash, use a wide-tooth comb or Hair Made Easi’s paddle brush to gently detangle hair. Try heat-free styles like braids or twists to protect hair from damage and make styling quick and easy.
-
Pamper Session with Face Masks
Take the self-care up a notch with DIY face masks for everyone. Use hydrating or calming masks that suit all skin types. And for that extra spa touch, slice up some cucumbers and place them over your eyes while the masks work their magic. It’s a fun and refreshing way to get the kids involved in skincare.
-
Relax and Rejuvenate
While your hair treatments and face masks are on, enjoy some downtime together. It’s a perfect opportunity to relax and recharge as a family.
-
Hydrate and Protect
Finish with a leave-in conditioner or hydrating spray to lock in moisture for the week ahead. Adults can apply lightweight serums or oils for added shine and protection, while kids benefit from a daily spritz of detangling spray before they head out to play.
-
Bedtime Wind Down
Before bed, brush through everyone’s hair and secure it in loose braids to avoid tangling overnight. For adults, sleeping on a silk or satin pillowcase helps reduce friction and prevent breakage.
By transforming your summer hair care routine into a family self-care Sunday, you’ll not only keep everyone’s hair and skin glowing but also create cherished memories.
