Summer is (almost) everyone’s favorite season, and for a good reason! The sun gets brighter, the temperatures get higher, and the overall vibe is just perfect!
The thing is, whenever summer rolls around, our bodies face some serious challenges. What we love the most about summer is also what can damage our hair and skin the most – the scorching sun, humidity levels, chlorine, and salty seawater.
Doesn’t sound so good now, does it? While we love to soak in the sun beside the pool or at the beach, we just don’t seem too happy about our hair at this point.

Why Summer Wreaks Havoc on Your Hair
We’d love to start with the must-haves, but before we do that, let’s talk a little bit about why summer hair care is super important.
We know that some of you may not even be fully aware of the extent of the damage the weather conditions can do – because let’s face it – that is the last thing on your mind during this magnificent season. But, continuous exposure will take its toll.
Here is what we mean by that:
-
Sun exposure breaks down the protein structure in your strands. It causes dryness, discoloration, and weakness.
-
Chlorine and saltwater strip your hair of its natural oils. They make it more prone to breakage.
-
Humidity causes frizzy and unmanageable texture (especially for curly and wavy hair types).
-
Heat styling (think beach waves and blowouts) just adds more stress to already vulnerable strands.
Thankfully, we are here to help you save your hair and make it glow! We’ve created this spectacular summer hair care routine for you. This means it’s not all doom and gloom. Because the right routine CAN save your hair.
Enough of the buildup – are you ready to protect your hair in the summer? Let’s get started.
First Step - Start with a Smart Shampoo
A good shampoo is the foundation of any solid hair routine. For summer hair care, you want something that deeply hydrates your hair yet doesn’t weigh your hair down. Also, you want something that helps maintain your natural texture and offers some frizz control.
Here’s what we have in mind:
Milbon Anti-Frizz Shampoo
Best for - All hair types, especially wavy, curly, and frizz-prone hair.
Think of this as your summer reset. Milbon’s Anti-Frizz Shampoo is a lightweight, moisture-balancing cleanser. It is designed to gently cleanse the scalp and strands without stripping your natural oils. With the help of this magnificent summer hair care product, you will manage to seal moisture in and keep frizz out.
-
Define waves and curls with ease.
-
Smooth down the cuticle for shinier hair.
-
Prevent flyaways and keep hair manageable - even on the stickiest of days.
Use this shampoo if you struggle with dry, unruly strands and need something gentle enough for daily use. And the bonus thing you never knew you needed? This shampoo smells like a dream.
Bumble and Bumble Curl Moisturizing Shampoo
Best for - All curl types, especially dry or damaged curls.
Curls need a lot of extra love during the summer months, and Bumble and Bumble delivers. This rich, oil-infused shampoo hydrates without heaviness, thanks to a blend of butters and oils that mimic your hair’s natural moisture barrier.
-
Deeply moisturise and soften curls.
-
Reduce frizz and add brilliant shine.
-
Help detangle and prepare hair for styling.
Even better, it is color safe, making it a great option for your hair. This means it is perfect if you’re rocking summer highlights or going lighter for the season.
Second Step - Layer on Lightweight Condition + Pre-Styling Protection
Once your hair is clean, it’s time to seal in moisture and prep for styling. But here’s the key for summer hair care – less truly is more. Heavy conditioners can weigh your hair down, especially when humidity is already making everything feel extra.
That’s why we’re obsessed with one of our products. It is a complete game-changer – one you never expected to find (anywhere).
JOC STYLE PRIMER Style Definer
Best for - Straight, wavy, or curly hair; anyone battling frizz.
This lightweight pre-styling fluid is the ultimate multitasker. Apply it before drying your hair to define your hair’s natural texture, reduce frizz, and add a protective barrier against heat and humidity.
-
Enhance natural curl or wave patterns.
-
Prevent frizz in humid environments.
-
Make blow-drying smoother and faster.
-
Offer long-lasting shape and softness.
Whether you’re going sleek, voluminous, or full-on beach waves, this summer hair care product helps your hair hold its style. It will never feel crunchy or heavy again. We know this fact puts an instant smile on your face.
An extra tip from us – apply it to damp hair and comb through for even distribution. Then, style as usual.
Third Step - Lock It In With Lightweight Hold
Humidity has a way of undoing even the most flawless hair days. That’s why a quality hairspray should always be your summer hair care BFF. And of course, we are here to tell you to forget the stiff, crunchy formulas you’ve known all through these years. We can actually offer one that will make your hair amazing!
JOC PUMPIT Workable Volumizing Hairspray
Best for - All hair types, especially fine or limp hair needing lift.
This isn’t your average hairspray. JOC PUMPIT offers a quick-dry, non-sticky formula that gives your hair both volume and movement. We know this is ideal for those breezy summer styles that need to stay in place and not look as stiff as ever.
-
Offer a strong, workable hold with zero stickiness.
-
Add volume and shine without dulling your colour.
-
Keep your hair in place even during humid beach days.
Spray it on dry hair as your final step after styling. Or, mist lightly over your roots and brush through for instant lift.
Summer Hair Care Tips You Shouldn’t Skip
Before we throw in the towel on this one, we would like to mention a few things you should not skip if you want to protect your hair in the summer. Remember these tips – they may not seem like much, but they go a long way if you want to keep your hair healthy and happy when the temperatures are high!
-
Rinse Before You Swim - Chlorine and salt love to cling to dry hair, but if you saturate your strands with clean water before taking a dip, they will be less damaged.
-
Air Dry When You Can - Give your blow dryer a vacation. Let your hair air-dry with the help of a defining product like JOC STYLE PRIMER to avoid unnecessary heat exposure.
-
Cover Up - Hats, scarves, and UV-protective sprays are not optional when you spend long hours in the sun. They protect your scalp and prevent colour from fading.
-
Sleep on Silk - If you’re serious about preventing frizz and breakage, swap your pillowcase for silk or satin. Your hair will thank you in the morning.
