Summer Hair Care Tips – Protect Your Hair from Sun, Salt, and Chlorine with Kérastase
Summer is the perfect time to enjoy the great outdoors, but it can be harsh on your hair. The sun’s UV rays, salty seawater, and chlorine-filled pools can wreak havoc, leaving your locks dry, brittle, and lifeless. Fortunately, with Kérastase, you can maintain healthy, vibrant hair all season long. Here are some expert summer hair care tips to protect and nourish your hair.
1. Shield Your Hair from UV Rays
Just like your skin, your hair needs protection from the sun. Prolonged exposure to UV rays can weaken the hair shaft and fade colour-treated hair.
Solution: Use Kérastase Soleil Huile Sirène, a lightweight, bi-phase mist that offers UV protection and enhances natural shine. It’s perfect for on-the-go sun shielding and adds a beachy texture to your hair.
2. Hydrate and Repair with a Summer-Friendly Mask
Salt and chlorine strip your hair of moisture, leaving it parched and prone to breakage. Replenish lost hydration with a deep conditioning treatment.
Solution: Apply Kérastase Masque UV Défense Active weekly. This restorative mask nourishes hair while fortifying it against environmental aggressors.
3. Pre-Swim Protection
Before diving into the ocean or pool, prep your hair to prevent damage from salt and chlorine.
Solution: Coat your hair with Kérastase Soleil Crème UV Sublime, a leave-in cream that creates a protective barrier. This product prevents your hair from absorbing harmful elements and keeps it silky and soft.
4. Rinse Immediately After Swimming
Salt and chlorine can linger in your hair, causing long-term damage if not washed out promptly.
Solution: Use Kérastase Bain Après-Soleil, a gentle cleansing shampoo specifically designed to remove impurities from summer activities. It’s enriched with coconut water to replenish hydration and restore balance.
5. Minimize Heat Styling
Your hair is already exposed to heat from the sun, so reducing the use of hot tools is essential.
Tip: Embrace air-drying or use Kérastase Soleil Huile Sirène to create effortless, textured waves without heat.
6. Protect Colour-Treated Hair
Colour-treated hair is especially vulnerable in summer. Sun exposure can cause fading and brassy tones.
Solution: The Kérastase Soleil Range is infused with UV filters and antioxidants to protect and preserve your colour.
7. Trim Regularly
Summer activities can cause split ends, making regular trims essential to keep your hair looking fresh and healthy. Pair this with a consistent haircare routine for best results.
With the right care and the exceptional products from Kérastase, your hair can thrive even in the harshest summer conditions. Incorporate these tips into your routine to keep your locks looking luscious, hydrated, and protected all season long.
