Healthy summer hair: which treatment to choose before, during and after your holidays

A summer hair care guide with treatments before, during and after the holidays to keep your hair hydrated, soft and luminous.

Summer can completely change what your hair needs. Sun, heat, humidity, swimming pool chlorine and sea salt can make the hair feel drier, duller, frizzier or harder to manage. That is why, to maintain healthy summer hair, it is important to adapt your hair care depending on the stage of the season: before, during or after your holidays.

At Glow Beauty Puerto Banús, from our hair salon in Puerto Banús, we care for your hair all year round with personalised treatments, professional advice and routines adapted to each hair type. In this guide, we explain which treatment may be right for your hair at each stage of summer.

Before your holidays: prepare and hydrate your hair

Before your holidays begin, the main goal is to prepare the hair fibre for the most common summer factors: sun exposure, humidity, chlorine, sea salt and more frequent washing. Hair that is well hydrated and cared for responds better to changes in routine and maintains a softer, shinier and more flexible appearance for longer.

At this stage, we recommend choosing hair treatments focused on hydration, nutrition and strengthening the hair fibre. Depending on the condition of your hair, our stylists may recommend treatments such as Kérastase Thérapiste, nourishing protocols or personalised rituals to improve softness, resistance and shine before the holidays.

If you want to start caring for your hair before the summer season, you can also discover our spring hair treatments in Puerto Banús, designed to hydrate, illuminate and prepare the hair before the months of stronger sun exposure.

During your holidays: protect your hair from sun, salt and chlorine

During your holidays, the priority is to protect the hair and maintain hydration. Sun exposure, sea water, swimming pools and humidity can alter the texture of the hair, increase frizz and make colour lose luminosity.

The Kérastase Soleil line is an excellent option to support your summer hair routine. Its products help cleanse, hydrate and soften the hair after sun exposure, beach days or swimming pool visits, leaving the hair feeling fresher, lighter and beautifully cared for.

Some of the most recommended gestures during the holidays include rinsing the hair thoroughly after the sea or swimming pool, using specific products to protect the fibre, applying a hydrating mask regularly and avoiding excessive manipulation when the hair is wet or sensitised.

To keep the hair softer and more controlled, products such as Kérastase Huile Sirènes can also help enhance natural waves with a flexible finish, without a stiff feeling.

After your holidays: restore nutrition, shine and softness

After your holidays, the hair may feel drier, more porous, duller or sensitised at the ends. At this stage, the goal is to restore nutrition, softness, shine and capillary comfort, especially if the hair has been exposed for weeks to sun, sea salt, chlorine or humidity.

Treatments such as Kérastase Chronologiste or Kérastase Nutritive can be an excellent option to bring back a feeling of deep care. Chronologiste helps provide softness, shine and a premium treatment experience, while Nutritive is ideal for dry hair that needs more intense nourishment.

It may also be advisable to refresh the ends after summer to remove the most sensitised areas and restore movement, lightness and a healthier-looking finish to the hair.

Which hair treatment should you choose at each stage of summer?

Each stage of summer brings different needs. Before the holidays, it is best to prepare and hydrate. During the holidays, the focus should be on protection and softness. After summer, the priority is to restore nutrition, shine and elasticity.

  • Before the holidays: hydrating, nourishing or strengthening treatments to prepare the hair fibre.
  • During the holidays: protective products, regular hydration and simple routines to care for the hair against sun, sea salt, chlorine and humidity.
  • After the holidays: repairing, nourishing and recovery rituals to restore softness, shine and movement to the hair.

The right choice will always depend on your hair type, condition, colour, texture and level of summer exposure. That is why a professional assessment at the salon can help you choose the most suitable protocol.
