5 ways to prepare your hair for summer

We’re sure you’re looking forward to the long summer days as much as we are!
Team Obsession share with you our favourite ways to prepare your hair for the summer months ahead.

1. Lighten

Lightening and brightening your hair colour is guaranteed to give you that summer glow. Think beach blonde colours, sunshine golds or opt for vanilla and caramel highlights or champagne blonde balayage topped off with beautiful curls to have you glowing for the summer months.

2. Cut

Having regular cuts every 6 weeks will ensure your hair stays in tip-top condition. The summer sun can be harsh on hair, reducing moisture content and drying hair out so reduce the damage with regular cuts which keep the split ends to a minimum and make sure you’re always ready for those summer socials!

3. Treat

Give your hair a regular treat at home in between salon visits to keep it in the best condition during the hot summer months. We recommend Olaplex No.3  which the A-list celebrities are all shouting about at the moment! It strengthens your hair and instantly adds shine leaving you with smooth, vibrant locks ready to hit the beach.  Available to purchase from either salon (and we’ll price-match any other high street retailer too*). Also available as a treatment in-salon – ask for an Olaplex Boost to be added to your service. If you forget to book in advance, don’t worry, ask when in salon and we’ll be able to add it whilst you are there.

4. Protect

We don’t think twice about protecting our skin from the sun.  But we often overlook our hair. Kérastase Soleil Shampoo is an amazing after sun shampoo that not only removes chlorine and salt from the hair but also nourishes and adds back moisture after a day at the beach or poolside. No suitcase should be without this and to help you we’re providing a complimentary travel size Soleil with any full size Soleil purchase **

5. Care

Caring for your hair at home is just as important as visiting the salon regularly. Your stylist will advise you which products are best for you to use at home depending on your hair type, your lifestyle and your plans for the summer. All, of our recommended products offer you the luxury results you’re used to receiving in either our Lichfield or Branston salons so you can maintain the health of your hair in-between salon visits. And remember we price-match so you can purchase your haircare products with confidence. Using your styling tools less can have a huge impact on the condition of your hair but be sure to use heat protection when you do. Your hair will thank you for it! We love Kérastase Ciment Thermique which is available to purchase from both salons, as it helps to strengthen too!

We look forward to seeing you in salon soon to get you ready and prepped for summer!
