Unfortunately, it's also one of the most damaging seasons for your hair. Between UV rays, chlorine, saltwater, humidity, and extra heat styling, your strands can quickly become dry, dull, and prone to breakage.\r\nThe good news? A few simple habits (and the right products) can keep your hair looking just as healthy in August as it did in May!\r\n\r\n**1.  Never Skip Heat Protectant**\r\n\r\nIf you're reaching for a blow dryer, curling iron, or flat iron, heat protectant isn't optional.\r\nHeat styling without protection can strip moisture from the hair, weaken the cuticle, and contribute to breakage and color fading over time.\r\nEven if you're only doing a quick touch-up with a hot tool, always apply heat protectant first.\r\n\r\n**2. Don't Let Chlorine Sit in Your Hair**\r\n\r\nOne of the biggest summer mistakes? Leaving pool water in your hair until later.\r\nChlorine continues drying out your strands long after you've left the pool. For color-treated blondes, it can even contribute to brassiness or discoloration.\r\n\r\nHere's what we recommend:\r\n\r\n-Rinse your hair with fresh water before getting in the pool (this helps reduce how much chlorinated water your hair absorbs). Think of your hair as a sponge, if the sponge is saturated before you put it in water, it won't absorb as much of the chlorine! \r\n-Shampoo and condition as soon as possible after swimming.\r\n-Follow up with a deep conditioning treatment if you've spent the day in the pool.\r\n\r\n**3. Wet Hair Needs Extra TLC**\r\n\r\nHair is at its weakest when it's wet.\r\nPulling soaking wet hair into a tight ponytail or bun creates unnecessary tension that can lead to breakage and split ends…especially if you're doing it every day after the beach or gym.\r\n\r\nInstead:\r\n\r\n-Use a microfiber towel or cotton t-shirt to gently remove excess water.\r\n-Choose loose braids or a soft scrunchie if you need your hair up.\r\n-Let your hair air dry whenever possible.\r\n\r\n**4. Protect Your Hair From the Sun**\r\n\r\nWe all know to wear SPF on our skin but your hair deserves protection, too.\r\n\r\nUV rays can:\r\n\r\n-Fade hair color\r\n-Dry out the hair shaft\r\n-Weaken the cuticle\r\n-Leave hair feeling rough and brittle\r\n\r\nUsing a leave-in conditioner or styling product with UV protection before spending time outdoors helps create a protective barrier against the sun. A hat or scarf can provide even more protection during long beach days.\r\n\r\n**Here’s some products we recommend: **\r\n\r\n**L'Oréal Professionnel Metal Detox Leave-In Cream**\r\n\r\n**Best for:** Color-treated hair and swimmer\r\n\r\n-Protects against heat up to 450°F\r\n-Helps minimize damage from metals that can build up in hair from water\r\n-Great before pool days and styling afterward\r\n\r\n**Kérastase Soleil Crème UV Sublime**\r\n\r\n**Best for**:  All hair types, especially color-treated hair\r\n\r\n-Lightweight leave-in cream\r\n-Helps protect against UV exposure\r\n-Reduces frizz caused by humidity\r\n-Adds softness and shine without feeling greasy\r\n\r\nThis is one of the strongest salon-grade options specifically formulated for sun protection.\r\n\r\n\r\n**Curly Hair Needs Even More Moisture**\r\n\r\nHumidity doesn't replace hydration.\r\n\r\nCurly hair naturally has a harder time retaining moisture, and summer conditions can leave curls feeling dry, frizzy, and less defined. That's why one of our favorite seasonal recommendations is the **Kérastase Curl Manifesto Hair Mask.**\r\n\r\n**Why we love it**\r\n\r\nThis ultra-rich treatment is designed specifically for very curly and coily hair that needs intense hydration.\r\n\r\n**Benefits include**:\r\n\r\n-Deeply nourishes dry curls without weighing them down.\r\n-Helps reduce frizz caused by humidity.\r\n-Improves softness and shine.\r\n-Enhances curl definition and bounce.\r\n-Strengthens hair to help minimize breakage.\r\n\r\nWhether you've spent the weekend at the pool or your curls simply need a moisture reset, this mask gives your hair the hydration it craves.\r\n\r\n**Our recommendation**: Use it once a week during the summer months for healthier, more manageable curls.\r\n\r\n**Need a Summer Hair Reset?**\r\n\r\nWhether you're protecting your color, maintaining your curls, or giving your hair some much-needed hydration after vacation, our team is here to help.\r\nStop by FRĒ Salon & Extensions to find the professional products that fit your hair goals, including the **Kérastase Curl Manifesto Hair Mask** or book a treatment customized to what your hair needs this season!
