Sun, saltwater, and scorching temperatures can leave your hair parched and damaged, but with the right care, you can maintain healthy, nourished hair all summer long. From UV protection, to hard water solutions, these expert tips will keep your hair looking its best through every beach day and poolside escape.

Protect Your Tresses

The sun doesn’t just damage your skin—it fades color and weakens hair proteins, too. Even a single day in the sun can cause photo-bleaching, leaving fragile strands dry and brittle.

Preventive Care:

Defend with UV Protection: The Kérastase Chroma Absoluline helps shield and strengthen hair over time, preserving vibrancy.
Layer on Defense: A light mist of Kérastase Heat Protecting Serum or the Shu Uemura Essence Absolue Oil-in-Creamadds a barrier against UV rays and heat styling.

Salon Approved Tips:

- Before swimming, saturate hair with clean water and apply a protective layer of conditioner to create a barrier against chlorine and salt absorption. We recommend the Oribe Run Through Detangling Primer.

- For extended sun exposure, reapply a protective product midday (just like sunscreen!) and wear a chic wide-brimmed hat for extra coverage.
