Melissa has feet upon feet of hair stunningly reminiscent of a Waterhouse mermaid, and we had a seaside chat about mermaid hair and just how they (and you!) can keep those tresses so lovely despite the searing sun and crashing sea.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7571887595\"><strong class=\"yiv7571887595\">What\u2019s the first rule of mermaid hair?<\/strong><br class=\"yiv7571887595\" clear=\"none\" \/>Be gentle and remember that your hair is most fragile when it&#8217;s wet. Water temporarily breaks the bonds that give hair its natural shape and texture, and this, combined with the additional weight of water, causes each strand of hair to become straighter and elongate. Your hair can only stretch so far before it breaks, and wet hair is already weakened and stretched nearer to its breaking point. Don\u2019t worry, though, these bonds reform as your hair dries; you just need a gentler hand until it does.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7571887595\"><strong class=\"yiv7571887595\">How can we protect our hair when it&#8217;s wet?<\/strong><br class=\"yiv7571887595\" clear=\"none\" \/>Protecting your hair starts before you even get in the water. You\u2019ll want to use an oil-based pre-treatment because anything else will rinse right out as soon as you hit the water. My favorite blends for this have a coconut oil base, because it\u2019s one of the few oils that actually penetrates the hair shaft. Here\u2019s an easy DIY recipe for a pre-swim treatment:<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7571887595\"><strong class=\"yiv7571887595\">Siren\u2019s Song Swim Oil<\/strong><br class=\"yiv7571887595\" clear=\"none\" \/>&#8211;\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<strong class=\"yiv7571887595\">.5 oz Fractionated Coconut Oil<\/strong><br class=\"yiv7571887595\" clear=\"none\" \/>&#8211;\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<strong class=\"yiv7571887595\">1 drop Eucalyptus Essential Oil<\/strong><br class=\"yiv7571887595\" clear=\"none\" \/>&#8211;\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<strong class=\"yiv7571887595\">3 drops Lavender Essential Oil<\/strong><br class=\"yiv7571887595\" clear=\"none\" \/>&#8211;\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<strong class=\"yiv7571887595\">3 drops Bergamot Essential Oil<\/strong><br class=\"yiv7571887595\" clear=\"none\" \/>&#8211;\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<strong class=\"yiv7571887595\">3 drops Rosemary Essential Oil<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7571887595\">Blend together and give a good shake before use.\u00a0<a class=\"yiv7571887595\" href=\"https:\/\/faeriemagazine.us7.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=a597b5ac886be75f533b0cd85&amp;id=cdee4dc23c&amp;e=bffda8596d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" shape=\"rect\">If you don\u2019t have the materials handy, Melissa will blend it up for you<\/a>!

You&#8217;ll need to do this until your hair is softy and shiny, but not oily and clumped together.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;7267&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7571887595\">Then put it into a protective style. While long tresses floating about the sea is picturesque, the best way to prevent damaging tangles is to not give them the chance to start. My favorite for this is probably a fishtail braid. It\u2019s simple to do, easy to find tutorials for, and it\u2019s thematically on point.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7571887595\"><strong class=\"yiv7571887595\">What happens when you\u2019re done swimming?<\/strong><br class=\"yiv7571887595\" clear=\"none\" \/>Once you get out of the water, it\u2019s important to get any minerals or chemicals (if you were swimming in a pool) off of your hair. First, gently wash your hair with your favorite shampoo, and then follow it up with a chelating rinse. You can make a very simple one of these with apple cider vinegar and your favorite herbal tea. Simply brew up a quarter cup of herbs with 6 cups water and let cool. To this add \u00bc cup of apple cider vinegar and stir (or shake!) well. Then pour it through your hair from root to tip. Another great option is\u00a0<a class=\"yiv7571887595\" href=\"https:\/\/faeriemagazine.us7.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=a597b5ac886be75f533b0cd85&amp;id=89b11b6457&amp;e=bffda8596d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" shape=\"rect\">Alluvial<\/a>, which is a natural treatment that pulls minerals off the hair, and can be scented with your choice of essential oils. I\u2019ll admit I prefer it over apple cider vinegar because the lingering vinegar tends to refresh the next time I get my hair wet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7571887595\">No matter if you do an ACV rinse or Alluvial you\u2019re doing two important things: you\u2019re closing down the cuticle of the hair and you\u2019re restoring the acid mantle of your scalp. This will help you both keep scalp itches away, and help make your hair easier to detangle, which is our next step!<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;7268&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]<strong class=\"yiv7571887595\">What do we need to detangle after a dip in the sea?<\/strong><br class=\"yiv7571887595\" clear=\"none\" \/>The main thing you need is patience, but some\u00a0<a class=\"yiv7571887595\" href=\"https:\/\/faeriemagazine.us7.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=a597b5ac886be75f533b0cd85&amp;id=557a7f52de&amp;e=bffda8596d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" shape=\"rect\">Selkie Herbal Detangler<\/a>\u00a0and a wide tooth comb certainly help. Because hair is so fragile when wet, you never want to pull or rip through tangles. You\u2019ll start with just your fingers, and at the ends of your hair. Separate your hair into small sections and gently work through the tangles. If you have Selkie, or another detangler, apply that to either your hair or your fingertips as you work.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;7269&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]<strong class=\"yiv7571887595\">What makes Selkie Herbal Detangler so special?<\/strong><br class=\"yiv7571887595\" clear=\"none\" \/>I\u00a0suppose the first thing is the smell, it\u2019s entrancing: Crisp sea-spray over alluring sun-basked vanilla and herbs. The second thing is that it\u2019s all natural. Many commercial detanglers are loaded with mineral oil, parabens, glycerin, and silicones that can leave hair looking greasy or build up over time. By contrast, every ingredient in\u00a0<a class=\"yiv7571887595\" href=\"https:\/\/faeriemagazine.us7.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=a597b5ac886be75f533b0cd85&amp;id=035ef8fa9c&amp;e=bffda8596d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" shape=\"rect\">Selkie Herbal Detangler<\/a>\u00a0is vegan, hand-blended, and certified organic. Selkie is lightweight and effective while still washing out with even the most gentle of natural cleansing methods. Selkie works for all hair types, and is a great leave in for extra hydration.<\/p>\n<p>I even use it in other recipes because it\u2019s such a great way to pack in a ton of pH balanced ingredients.

Just like with finger-detangling, you\u2019ll want to work in small sections, starting from the ends and working your way upwards. The ideal comb for this should have wide teeth, without seams. Many plastic combs have a seam that runs around its midline where the two halves of the mold come together, so if your comb has those, you\u2019ll want to gently file those off with a nail file. Otherwise, those sharp, upraised seams will damage your hair, causing it to weaken\u2014just the same way the edge of a pair of scissors curls a ribbon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7571887595\">My favorite comb (pictured above) is made of Verawood. Wood combs are perfectly fine so long as you dry them off when your done so the water doesn\u2019t damage the wood. Other great materials for combs are bone and horn.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv7571887595\">I really hope you\u2019ve enjoyed these long hair mermaid tips and can find a way to work them into your beauty rituals!<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=&#8221;7273&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column_text]<strong class=\"yiv7571887595\">I don\u2019t suppose you have any enchanted gifts for our lovely readers?<\/strong><br class=\"yiv7571887595\" clear=\"none\" \/>Of course I do!
