By the time August rolls around, summer may be starting to show up in your hair.
Sun exposure, humidity, chlorine, salt water, frequent washing, and heat styling can all leave hair feeling drier, duller, frizzier, or harder to manage than it did at the beginning of the season. Color can also lose some of its vibrancy after weeks of sun and time outdoors.
The good news? You usually don’t need a complete overhaul. A few well-timed adjustments can make a noticeable difference heading into fall.
Start With the Condition of Your Hair
If your ends are feeling dry or worn, a trim can immediately make the hair look and feel healthier. A professional conditioning or repair treatment can also help restore softness and manageability, especially if your hair has been color-treated or lightened.
The key is choosing what your hair actually needs. Dryness, damage, and lack of shine aren’t always the same problem, which is why your stylist’s recommendation matters.
Refresh Faded Color
Summer can be especially tough on hair color. Blondes may notice more warmth or dullness, while brunettes and redheads can lose richness and shine.
A gloss, toner, or customized color refresh can restore tone and vibrancy without necessarily making a major change. August is also a great time to start talking with your stylist about any color changes you may want for fall.
Don’t Forget Your At-Home Routine
Professional products help protect the investment you make in your hair.
Davines SU Hair Milk is a great option for hair that has been exposed to sun and heat, helping keep it soft, manageable, and protected.
For hair that needs additional moisture and easier detangling, milk_shake Leave-In Conditioner can help soften the hair, improve manageability, add shine, and support color-treated hair between salon visits.
Not every product is right for every head of hair, though. Your Salon True stylist can recommend the best options based on your hair type, color, texture, and current condition.
Head Into Fall With Healthier Hair
Late summer is the perfect time to reset your hair before the season changes.
Whether that means a trim, treatment, color refresh, or simply updating your home-care routine, a little attention now can make a big difference in how your hair looks and feels heading into fall.
Ask your Salon True stylist what your hair needs at your next visit, and we’ll help you create a plan that works for you.
