Summer may bring visions of natural highlights and long windblown hair, but the reality is that summer sun and humidity can damage your hair and result in dry, split, frizzy hair and ends.

Consider some of these tips for great summer hair care:

• If your hair is fine or thin, apply a ‘leave-in’ conditioner to prevent static electricity
• Hair needs to be treated more gently during the summer. Consider switching to a more moisturizing and overall gentle shampoo
• When you’re out in the sun, reach for a hat to cover delicate strands.  If a hat won’t do, use the next best thing… sun cream!
• Wash your hair less often during summer months to allow your tresses to absorb maximum moisture

Take care of your hair during the summer and you won’t have to spend the rest of the year trying to repair it!  Prevention is always the best plan of action for your hair.

Tee Time Anyone?

From The ED …

Well, hello there, did you miss us?

It feels like such a long time since I last wrote this column. Even though it seemed like a little holiday at the start, I think you will see that we have been really busy…

Your new bi-monthly, Sentinella Costa West Edition is jam packed with even more than before. We have some great new contributors who will be giving you advice on subjects from keeping healthy, looking good, improving your homes and gardens to understanding your pets.

Our advertisers all offer the best quality services and products at very affordable prices. If in doubt, just give them a call and find out for yourself and please do remember to tell them where you saw their ads.

Spring is here and Summer is just around the corner so I have been out discovering some of the different sporting activities there are in the area. I have recently joined Marbella Netball Club (see pg 24) and am about to learn to play golf… why not come and join me?

If you fancy a day trip or even a weekend away, why not pop up to Juzcar or Ronda? They have so much to offer and are only 40 minutes from Marbella …get up there before all the summer tourists arrive!

Remember that our next Issue will be out at the end of May for June/July so send in any requests for Summer articles or your favorite silly jokes by email to costawest@thesentinella.com
