Summer is here—and so are sun-soaked beach days, poolside lounging, and tropical getaways. While you're enjoying the sunshine, don't forget your hair needs care too. Salt water, chlorine, and UV exposure can cause dry ends, color fading, and breakage if you’re not protecting those strands.
At Bleach Please Salon, we believe luxury hair deserves luxury care—even in the heat. Whether you’re heading to the beach or just battling Florida humidity, here are our top pro tips for keeping your hair healthy and fabulous all season long.

1. Prep Your Hair Like You Prep Your Skin
Just like sunscreen protects your skin, your hair needs a barrier too. Before hitting the beach or pool, apply a leave-in conditioner or a UV protectant spray. We love products that include SPF or nourishing oils to seal and protect the cuticle.
2. Rinse Before—and After—the Pool
Wet your hair with fresh water before swimming. This keeps it from absorbing too much salt or chlorine. Afterward, rinse again and apply a lightweight conditioner to keep hair smooth and hydrated.
3. Book a Summer Gloss or Toner
UV rays and saltwater can strip color and shine. A quick gloss or toner refresh can bring faded blondes, brunettes, and redheads back to life—and add an extra boost of shine and protection.
4. Invest in a Deep Conditioning Treatment
Summer is the perfect time to give your hair some extra love. Whether in-salon or at home, regular hydration treatments are essential for keeping hair soft and manageable. They also protect against split ends, which can be exacerbated by heat and sun exposure.
5. Get a Trim Before (and After) Summer
Snipping off dry, dead ends before your vacation helps prevent further splitting. Book a light dusting after your beach adventures to keep things fresh and polished.

The Importance of Hydration
Don’t let summer damage your vibe. Staying hydrated isn't just vital for your body; it's crucial for your hair too. Drink plenty of water to keep your hair hydrated from the inside out. This simple step will help maintain moisture levels and overall hair health.
Protect Your Hair While Styling
If you plan to use heat tools, always apply a heat protectant. This extra layer can prevent damage from styling products and keep your hair in optimal condition. Styles that minimize heat, such as braids or buns, can also be beneficial.
Embrace Natural Textures
Summer weather can wreak havoc on any hairstyle. Instead of fighting against your natural texture, embrace it! Experiment with beachy waves or loose curls. Use a sea salt spray to enhance your natural waves, giving you that effortless summer look.
The Power of Accessories
Hair accessories can be your best friend this summer. Use wide-brimmed hats and scarves to protect your hair from sun damage. They add style and functionality, ensuring your hair stays in great shape.
Final Thoughts
With a little prep and the right products, your hair can stay shiny, strong, and stunning—no matter how hot it gets. Remember, healthy hair reflects the care it receives.
