Is Summer Damaging Your Hair?
Summer is one of our favourite times of year, but it can be one of the toughest seasons for your hair.
Sunshine, sea water, swimming pools, humidity and frequent washing can all leave your hair feeling dry, brittle and lacking shine. If you've invested in beautiful colour, balayage or highlights, you'll also want to protect it from fading.
The good news is that with the right hair care routine and a little help from the team at Beach Hair Hove, you can enjoy healthy, glossy hair all summer long.
Protect Your Hair From the Sun
Just like your skin, your hair needs protection from UV rays.
Too much sun exposure can dry out the hair, weaken its structure and cause coloured hair to fade more quickly. Blonde hair is particularly prone to becoming dull or brassy after spending time in the sun.
Wearing a hat on particularly hot days and using professional UV-protecting hair products can make a huge difference. If you're unsure which products are right for your hair type, our stylists will be happy to recommend the best options during your appointment.
Rinse After Swimming
Salt water and chlorine both strip moisture from the hair and can leave it feeling rough and dehydrated.
Whenever possible, rinse your hair with fresh water after swimming in the sea or pool to remove any residue before it has time to dry into the hair. This simple habit can help reduce dryness and protect your colour throughout the summer.
Keep Your Hair Hydrated
Hydration is the secret to healthy summer hair.
If your hair is feeling dry, frizzy or difficult to manage, now is the perfect time to book a professional conditioning treatment.
At Beach Hair Hove, we offer a range of bespoke hair and scalp treatments designed to restore moisture, strengthen the hair and improve shine. Every treatment begins with a personalised consultation so we can recommend the most suitable solution for your hair's individual needs. Whether your hair is dry, over-processed, colour-treated or simply in need of some extra care, we'll tailor a treatment to help restore it to its best. (Beach Hair)
Give Coloured Hair Some Extra Care
Summer can be particularly challenging for coloured hair.
UV exposure, heat, chlorine and sea water can all contribute to colour fading and dryness. If you've recently invested in balayage, highlights or a full colour transformation, protecting that investment with professional aftercare is essential.
One of our most popular treatments is WELLAPLEX, which helps strengthen the hair's internal bonds during or after colouring while improving shine and helping your colour stay looking vibrant for longer. WELLAPLEX is also available as a standalone treatment for anyone wanting to strengthen damaged or weakened hair.
Don't Skip Your Trim
Many people avoid visiting the salon before going on holiday because they want to keep as much length as possible.
In reality, a small trim before or after your holiday can prevent split ends from travelling further up the hair and help your hair stay healthier throughout the summer.
Regular maintenance appointments also keep your style looking fresh and much easier to manage.
Use Professional Hair care at Home
Your home routine plays a huge role in keeping your hair looking its best.
Using salon quality shampoos, conditioners and treatments helps replace the moisture lost through sun exposure, swimming and heat styling.
Our team stocks a range of professional home haircare products and can recommend the right products based on your hair type, colour and lifestyle, helping you maintain beautiful results between salon visits.
