How to Take Care of Your Blonde Hair in Summer

Blonde hair needs extra care year-round… but especially in summer! With higher humidity levels, the harsh summer sun and more days spent swimming, summer is the perfect time to pick up your blonde haircare game. Here’s our guide on how to take care of your blonde hair in summer.   Start with a high-quality wash-day line-up        For all hair, but for blonde hair especially, using a high-quality shampoo and conditioner is simply essential. The products you wash with can make or break your hair's health. So, if you’re looking to improve the health of your blonde hair this summer, begin by choosing a high-quality clean beauty shampoo and condition… that means no harsh sulphates or other nasty ingredients commonly found in low-quality products! Starting with a nourishing wash-day line-up like HASK Blonde Care Shampoo and Conditioner is the perfect first step to making sure that your blonde hair is receiving the extra care it needs during summertime. The HASK Blonde Care line is free from sulphates and silicones and made with nourishing ingredients to protect your hair and prolong your colour.   Use a purple shampoo! If you don’t already, start using purple shampoo. Purple shampoo works to ensure that your freshly dyed blonde hair stays bright and brass-free. By adding a purple shampoo to your summer blonde haircare routine, you can minimise the effect that the sun has on your hair. A high-quality purple toning shampoo, like the HASK Blonde Care Purple Toning Shampoo, will ensure that brassy and yellow tones are neutralised while also hydrating and strengthening strands weakened from the dyeing process.   Apply a leave-in conditioner Adding a leave-in conditioner into your routine ensures that your hair will receive an extra layer of protection after washing! This is a particularly important step for blonde hair during summer as UV and environmental damage is more likely to affect lightened strands. Using a leave-in conditioner like the HASK Blonde Care 5-in-1 Leave-in Spray will help to maintain your blonde shades, improve manageability and soften your hair. Our Blonde Care Leave-in Spray also protects hair from heat use and ensures an extra layer of protection from the sun to stop the hair from becoming damaged or drying out.   Deep condition… regularly! To really enhance your hair and show off your beautiful blonde colour, regularly use a deep conditioner during summer! Pro hair stylist Linda Flowers says: “Deep conditioning is so important for blonde hair. Colouring can compromise the integrity of the hair and it is essential to nourish it. Deep conditioning will affect the longevity of the colour. Strong hair holds colour better, so deep condition at least once a week and more if your hair is extremely damaged.” For a super nourishing treatment that also neutralises brassiness, try adding our HASK Blonde Care Purple Toning Deep Conditioner into your haircare routine.   By protecting your blonde colour and your hair health, you’ll ensure that your blonde tresses stay salon-fresh over the summer.
