Beach Hair? BEST HAIR!

For the love of volleyball and sun-kissed waves, "Beach Hair" doesn’t just mean untamed tresses following a day at the beach; it’s a symbol of strength, spirit, and sport. That beach hair vibe is energetic, effortless, and exuberant.

Volleyball hair and beach hair are two peas in a pod. For volleyball players with long locks, beach hair isn't just about looking good; it's a battle tactic to keep those locks out of their eyes and stay laser-focused on the game. The battle is real - fighting the elements, keeping hair game-ready, and letting personalities shine through. Winning starts with the right hair band!

Hair Ties for Beach Volleyball

Not just any hair accessory will do. The unique needs of female athletes with long hair call for something more durable, comfortable, and versatile than an elastic hair tie. TIY hair ties are built to keep your hair secure during the most vigorous games. Known for their strength, flexibility, and comfort, TIY hair ties are perfect for securing wet, sandy hair without causing damage or breakage. 

Made to be customizable, you can create the perfect loop size for your hair thickness and type. Whether your hair is fine and slippery or thick and curly, it stays put. It keeps your hair secure through the whole game, no matter how many dives you make.

Choosing the right hair accessories is also about expressing your personality. TIY hair ties come in a variety of colors. Pick the ones that reflect your personal flair, your team colors, or your mood. You can make a fun statement in the sand with bright, bold colors, or match your competitor's game face with dark, simple tones.

Post-Beach Hair Care

After a day of battling the sun, salt, and sand, your hair will need some TLC to remain as healthy and vibrant as your spirit. Since TIY hair ties don't dent, break, pull, or damage your hair, they're the perfect thing to add to your game bag. It's also essential to use products formulated for post-beach care.

Look for shampoos, conditioners, and leave-in treatments that replenish moisture and nutrients lost during the beach battle. Here are some ways to prevent damage before it happens!

• Natural Jojoba Oil: Before heading out to the beach, apply natural jojoba oil to your hair as a deep conditioning treatment to protect against salt.
• UV-protective Products: Use leave-in conditioners, sprays, or serums formulated with UV filters to protect hair from UV rays, preventing dryness, color fading, and brittleness.
• Coconut Oil: Applying coconut oil to your hair before beach exposure can act as a barrier against sun and sea, minimizing damage.
• Ion Sun Protection Spray: A lightweight spray that protects hair from the sun without leaving a sticky residue
