Hello, Sunshine! Prep Your Hair for Summer with These Must-Know Tips!

Your Summer Hair Survival Guide: Keep Your Hair Healthy All Season Long

Brought to you by Adorn Salon

Summer is all about sunshine, pool days, and beach trips—but while you’re soaking in the season, your hair might be feeling the heat. Between UV exposure, saltwater, chlorine, and humidity, it’s no surprise that summer can be one of the most damaging times for your strands.

At Adorn Salon, we’re here to help you protect your hair and keep it glowing all season long. Whether you’re headed to the beach or battling frizz in your backyard, here’s your ultimate summer hair survival guide—plus our top picks from R+Co, R+Co Bleu, and Goldie Locks to help get you through the season in style.

1.  Start with a Trim

Split ends and dry strands only get worse in the summer sun. A fresh trim—or even just a soft dusting—gives your hair a healthy foundation to thrive. It also helps prevent further breakage and frizz.

2.  Use a UV Protectant

Just like your skin, your hair needs protection from harmful UV rays. Sun exposure can fade color, dry out your strands, and break down hair proteins.

Adorn Salon Favorite:

• R+Co SUN CATCHER Power C Boosting Leave-In Conditioner – Packed with Vitamin C and UV protection, this lightweight leave-in nourishes while shielding your hair from sun damage.

Stylist Tip: Keep a travel-size in your beach bag and reapply after swimming!

3.  Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate

Hot weather and extra sun exposure can seriously dehydrate your hair. Switch to ultra-hydrating shampoos and conditioners, and treat yourself to deep conditioning treatments weekly—either at home or in the salon.

Top Product Picks for Deep Moisture:

• R+Co Bleu Essential Shampoo + Conditioner – Gently cleanse and replenish moisture while adding strength and shine.

• Goldie Locks Ultra Hydrating Hair Mask – A must-have for anyone battling dryness or frizz. It deeply restores softness and protects your strands from future damage.

4. Rinse Before You Swim

Saltwater and chlorine strip your hair of its natural oils—but here’s a salon trick: rinse your hair with clean water before jumping in. Saturating your hair with fresh water first limits how much damaging water it can absorb.

Double Down:

• Add a layer of R+Co HIGH DIVE Moisture + Shine Crème for an extra barrier that locks in moisture and deflects dryness.

After swimming, rinse again ASAP and follow with a clarifying shampoo to remove buildup.

5.  Fight Frizz with the Right Products

Humidity? Public enemy #1 when it comes to frizz. To keep hair smooth and polished, the right anti-frizz products are essential.

Tame the Frizz with These Salon Faves:

• Goldie Locks Smoothing Cream – Smooths frizz and adds long-lasting humidity resistance without weighing hair down.

• R+Co MOOD SWING Straightening Spray – Great for blowouts on humid days; it helps block moisture and extend your style.

For even more control, ask us about professional glosses designed to seal your cuticle and keep frizz at bay.

6.  Limit Heat Styling

Summer is the perfect time to embrace natural texture. Try air drying your hair with products that enhance curls, waves, or softness—and always use heat protection when you do reach for your tools.

Protect & Style:

• R+Co BLEU Optical Illusion Smoothing Oil – A miracle multitasker that adds shine, fights frizz, and protects against heat damage.

• Goldie Locks Signature Serum – Lightweight and luxurious, this serum smooths flyaways and adds a soft glow.

7.  Protect Your Color

UV rays and chlorine can seriously fade your salon color. Stick with sulfate-free, color-safe shampoos and add a gloss treatment or toner midway through summer to refresh vibrancy.

Color-Safe Must-Haves:

• R+Co GEMSTONE Color Shampoo + Conditioner – Designed specifically for color-treated hair, it maintains vibrancy and shine.

• Goldie Locks Signature Shampoo + Conditioner – Gentle, nourishing, and perfect for protecting color without buildup.
