Get Your Hair Ready for Summer! 3 Ways to Prep Your Hair

This month we are focused on getting your hair ready for summer and all of the things that can wreak havoc on your hair. By adding moisture, strength and smoothness, your hair can make it through the damage caused by heat, sun, chlorine, salt water, etc. relatively unscathed!

1. Add Moisture:

If your hair is dehydrated now, just imagine what it will feel like at the end of those hot summer months!

May is the perfect time to rehydrate hair and get it prepped for the sun. To add moisture to your hair before summer, focus on deep conditioning treatments, leave-in conditioners, and hydrating hair masks containing ingredients like coconut oil or shea butter. We recommend adding an in-salon moisture treatment with a follow up at home with a hydrating mask to help hydrate and retain moisture.

Additionally, incorporate lightweight hydrating hair oils and limit heat styling to prevent moisture loss. These simple steps will help keep your hair hydrated, healthy, and protected from the summer elements.

2. Add Strength

As summer approaches, strengthening your hair is essential to protect it from potential damage caused by sun exposure, chlorine, and saltwater. To fortify your strands, incorporate protein-rich hair treatments into your routine, such as keratin-infused masks or leave-in conditioners. These products help strengthen the hair shaft, reduce breakage, and improve overall resilience.

Is your hair weak or already breaking?

Add strength now to keep from having super damaged hair at the end of summer. An in-salon strengthening treatment is exactly what your stylist ordered! Adding elasticity and strength to your hair now will help protect it from the elements that weaken hair during the summer months.

Additionally, consider reducing the frequency of heat styling and using a wide-tooth comb to detangle wet hair gently.

3. Add Smoothness:

Already fighting frizz?

You know the uphill battle that will become as the weather gets hotter and more humid. Adding keratin will help significantly decrease frizz for the summer! Start with a Keratherapy Color Lock & Smooth treatment in May and consider our other in-salon keratin treatments for longer lasting results.
