Sun, salt, chlorine: late summer is hair rescue season

The summer months are a stress test for our hair. Intense UV radiation, salty seawater, and chlorine from the pool strain the hair structure and leave traces: brittle lengths, dull strands, and dry ends. With the transition into late summer, now is the right time to treat the hair to a targeted regeneration treatment.

Summer stress for the hair

Beach days, pool visits, and sun exposure act like a triple attack:

û  UV rays weaken the keratin structure and cause the hair to fade.

û  Saltwater removes moisture from the hair and causes a rough, straw-like feeling.

û  Chlorine deposits in the cuticle layer and can lead to discoloration or brittleness.

The result: The hair looks dull, is harder to comb, and tends to split ends.

Late summer care: Time for regeneration

Late summer is ideal to specifically restore care to damaged hair. The following help:

ü  Intensive care masks with nourishing ingredients like keratin, argan oil, or shea butter that penetrate deeply into the hair fiber.

ü  Leave-in products like sprays or serums that also protect the hair from moisture loss during the day.

ü  Gentle shampoos without sulfates that cleanse the hair without drying it out further.

Don't forget the scalp

Not only the lengths but also the scalp suffers from sun, salt, and chlorine. A balancing scalp serum or a mild peeling can help restore the natural balance and support hair growth.

Tip: Prevention for next summer

Those who take precautions now benefit in the long term: UV protection sprays for the hair, a hat or scarf when sunbathing, and thoroughly rinsing out salt and chlorine water after swimming are simple but effective measures.
