☀️ Summer Hair Survival Guide: Pro Tips from Behind the Chair

Summer is all about sun, fun, and freedom—but for your hair? Not so much. Between UV rays, humidity, chlorine, and salt water, your strands go through it all. As stylists, we see the effects firsthand every year—and we’ve got your back (and your ends).

Here’s our go-to summer hair guide to keep your hair healthy, stylish, and protected all season long.

🔥 1. Protect Before You Play

Just like your skin, your hair needs sun protection too. Look for UV-protectant sprays or leave-in conditioners that shield your strands while locking in moisture. Try Pureology 21 Benefits!

Stylist tip: Spray it in before hitting the beach or pool—and again after every swim!

💧 2. Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate

The sun and heat strip away your hair’s natural oils. Weekly masks or deep conditioning treatments are a must during summer.

Try this: Ask your stylist for a custom in-salon treatment or grab our favorite take-home mask, Redken Acidic Bonding 5 minute mask.

🌬️ 3. Fight the Frizz

Humidity = frizz, especially for textured or color-treated hair. A smoothing serum or anti-humidity spray can make all the difference.

Pro hack: Finish your style with a cool shot of air to seal the cuticle. Pureology Smoothing Lotion is the Best!

✂️ 4. Don’t Skip the Trim

Split ends are unavoidable, especially in the summer. Trimming every 6–8 weeks keeps your hair looking fresh, full, and healthy—plus it helps styles last longer.

🎨 5. Go Lighter, Go Warmer

Summer is a great time to brighten your look! Whether you want sun-kissed balayage, subtle highlights, or bold blonde—summer shades bring warmth and glow to your whole vibe.

Bonus: We’re seeing dimensional blondes and caramel brunettes trending this year!

🌿 6. Keep it Clean—But Not Too Clean

Overwashing strips natural oils, which your hair needs in summer. Use dry shampoo between washes and sulfate-free cleansers to stay fresh without drying out.
