The Remedy for Post-Summer Hair Damage

Summer days are often spent soaking in the sun, poolside or seaside, with a sentiment of ‘summer hair, don’t care’. But then it happens, you take a look in the mirror as you’re tucking away those swimsuits and shorts– and dry, brittle, dehydrated hair is staring right back! Blame it on the chlorine and salt water (or because you forgot to wear your straw hat and were thrown in the pool repeatedly!). Regardless, both can dehydrate your tresses, stripping away your hair’s moisture, causing split ends and a loss of shine and vibrancy. 

Summer hair that has endured a little too much chlorine, sun and saltwater

Salt water is not as kind to our tresses as it is to our skin, delivering adverse effects such as brittle, straw-like hair. Whereas continuous exposure to chlorine can make your hair’s color and toner fade at a rapid pace while also stripping away natural oils leaving it lackluster and dull. 

If you’re not ready to let summer go just yet, protect your hair from these elements by rinsing it with fresh water–before jumping in the pool or ocean. Your locks will absorb more pure H2O and less salt or chlorine. Then, add Olaplex No.3 (yes, we have it at deZEN) to your hair. This amazing leave-in conditioning product will help protect your hair from the elements. And, don’t forget that aftercare is essential, too. After a dip, once again rinse your hair with fresh water to eliminate as much of the chlorine and/or salt water your hair may have absorbed. 

If it’s too late and the summer elements have already wreaked havoc on your mane, repair your hair with one simple treatment. I recommend the Malibu C Swimmers Treatment to help ditch the damage and discoloration from the summer elements and whip your lifeless locks into shape, revealing softness, swing and shine. 

The Benefits:

  • Dramatically improves the look and feel of hair no matter how often you dive in the water.

  • Naturally removes all the hair-harsh elements from pool, spa or ocean water.

  • Removes and prevents “swimmers’ green hair” (copper buildup, the culprit behind green discoloration)
