Summer, ah, the season of sunshine, beach trips, and ice cream cones. But amidst all the fun, there’s one thing many of us tend to overlook – our hair care. With the scorching heat and relentless sweat, it’s understandable that hair care might not be at the top of our priority list. However, neglecting our hair during the summer months can lead to lacklustre hair, frizzy nightmares, and an overall unruly mane.
Importance of a Proper Hair Care Routine
Now, let’s talk about why investing in a proper hair care routine and quality hair care products such as shampoos, conditioners and hair serums is crucial during the summer. Firstly, sweat and grime accumulation can leave our hair looking dull and lifeless, robbing it of its natural shine. Secondly, the humidity levels skyrocket during this time, leading to frizz and unmanageable hair. A good hair care routine coupled with the right products can combat these issues, keeping your hair healthy, vibrant, and under control throughout the sunny season.
Summer Hair Care Products that are Must-Haves

The base of any good hair care routine is a good shampoo. This product is responsible for proper cleansing of your hair. We recommend using Kérastase’s Genesis Bain Nutri-Fortifiant Shampoo. This one’s ideal for normal to dry, weakened hair prone to breakage. Enriched with Ginger Root Extract and Edelweiss Native Cells, it strengthens the hair fibre, adds moisture, and reduces hair loss over time.

This sulphate-free, smoothing shampoo is ideal for frizzy, sensitised, colour-treated or chemically-treated hair. Its ultra-gentle formula coats each hair fibre, restoring uniformity and transforming your damaged hair into nourished, smooth, soft strands.

Conditioner is designed to hydrate and nourish the hair after shampooing. It helps to detangle strands, improve manageability, and restore moisture, leaving the hair soft, smooth, and more resistant to breakage.

- Hair Mask
Hair masks are deep conditioning treatments that provide intensive hydration and repair to the hair. They penetrate deeply into the hair shaft, nourishing and strengthening the strands from within. Hair masks can help restore damaged hair, improve elasticity, and enhance overall texture and shine. Kérastase’s Discipline Maskeratine is a great fit for the summer. This deep treatment hair mask tames frizz and restores smoothness with its Morpho-Kératine Complex technology. Say goodbye to damaged strands and hello to nourished, manageable hair.
- Hair Serum
Leave-in treatments that provide various benefits, hair serums are lightweight elixirs. They often contain oils and other nourishing ingredients that help to smooth frizz, add shine, control flyaways, and protect the hair from heat damage. Hair serums can also provide hydration and improve the overall health and appearance of the hair. Kérastase’s Elixir Ultime Serum is a nourishing leave-in serum that is suitable for all hair types. Infused with Marula oil, Camellia oil, and Argan oil, it offers up to 96 hours of frizz control and heat protection up to 230 degrees. Say hello to soft, radiant hair without the greasy finish.
- Anti-Frizz Spray
Anti-frizz sprays are specifically formulated to combat frizz and humidity-induced hair woes. They typically contain ingredients that create a protective barrier around the hair shaft, shielding it from moisture in the air. Kérastase has a stellar anti-frizz spray: the Discipline Fluidissime. This anti-frizz heat protectant spray shields your hair from humidity for up to 72 hours. Enjoy a faster blow dry and silky-smooth, lightweight hair all summer long.
