How To Travel While Keeping Your Hair Looking And Feeling Flawless

Living from event to event or traveling from city to city means little time for your hair.

Traveling with extensions should never be difficult. Like your color blend, we want it to be SEAMLESS. 

Wearing Kashmir extensions should make your life easier, not harder. You can have great hair and still carry on with an eventful and fun lifestyle. 

In fact, wearing Kashmir Extensions actually means less maintenance. Once they’re washed and styled, they require little daily effort. 

We want our clients to have it all. So we’ve curated some of our favorite tips for traveling and living a busy lifestyle while wearing Kashmir Extensions.

Whether you’re traveling for work or taking a vacation, these tips will cover you to keep your hair care routine THRIVING no matter where you are. 

Visit Kashmir Salon to get a blow out before your trip. This way you won’t have to wash your hair or if anything you will just need a top wash. A top wash is where you only wash the top crown of your natural hair, excluding your extensions. This is a great hack for traveling. It’s easy, fast and gives you a fresh look without having to restyle your extensions. 

Style your hair in loose braids after a quick rough dry for a comfortable style while on long trips or planes. Your hair can still finish air drying but in a more controlled hairstyle. Plus, when you remove the braids, you will have effortless beach waves to exit the plane or end your travels with. 

Stick to your hair routine without adding weight to your luggage. If you travel or live a busy lifestyle, keep some stability in your life by sticking to your hair care routine. We know your routine requires products and who wants to lug around big, heavy product bottles? And sometimes there’s just no time (or desire) to fill a bunch of travel size containers with our favorite products. Iles Formula makes it so easy to travel with their products. So when traveling, snag the Iles Mini Set set to keep up with your hair routine while you’re away. The Iles Mini Set is curated with 50ml travel sizes of their shampoo, conditioner and travel serum. 

Help your hair grow, even on the go. Use Iles Scalp and Hair Rejuvenating Booster, a powerful leave-in treatment that promotes hair growth. This is the perfect treatment for a busy lifestyle because it’s so easy to apply and you can apply it to wet or dry hair. Hair health can be easy, even on the go - that’s why we love this product so much. 

When it comes to hair washing, save time where you can. Hair turban towels are a great travel necessity if you’re planning to wash your hair while you’re away. A hair turban towel will help your hair dry faster while still being gentle on your wet hair. Plus, bringing a hair turban can help create a sense of home. 

Bring a serum that works in all climates. ILes Finishing Serum is our holy grail while traveling. Use this serum as a heat protectant before heading out into the sun for the day and/or styling your hair with heat. It also helps manage your hair in all climates. If you’re in a humid climate, use the serum to take away the frizz from your hair. In cold weather, you can use the serum to add moisture back into your hair and nourish split ends. And remember, you can use it on your hair wet or dry. See why it's our holy grail? 

Protect your hair from matting. Braid your hair tightly if you’re going in water, especially salt water. Use ILes Finishing Serum before and after swimming in salt water. Rinse your hair with fresh water immediately after, apply the serum and then gently brush it. Bring a fine tooth comb in addition to your brush in case your hair does get matted. If you have any matting, comb it out as soon as possible. 

Kiki with a bun on the beach

When all else fails, throw your hair in a messy bun. For travel days and/or windy weather, throw your hair up in a messy bun to keep it out of your face and from tangling. Done right, a messy bun can still look chic. To get that perfect messy bun, secure your pony with an elastic 2x. Then flip the pony towards your face, secure a fold and fan out the fold to create fullness. Then wrap the tail around the fold and tuck it inside the elastic. And there you have it, the perfect messy bun.

We know how busy life can get and we guarantee that these tips will help make your life easier. Include these tips into your travel prep and your hair will thank you.
