Your seasonal reset for sun, salt, and chlorine damage.
Summer is all about beach days, pool parties, and soaking up the sunshine, but let’s be real, your hair might be feeling a little… parched. Salt water, chlorine, UV rays, and heat styling can leave your strands dry, faded, and craving some serious TLC.
If your hair has lost its shine or softness, don’t panic. Here’s your step-by-step plan to bring it back to life and keep it looking flawless well into fall.
1. Start With a Deep Clean
After months of sunscreen, salt, and pool chemicals, your hair needs a detox. Use a gentle clarifying shampoo to remove buildup without stripping moisture. This preps your strands to actually absorb the good stuff you’ll give it next.
2. Hydrate Like It’s Your Job
Sun + salt + chlorine = major moisture loss. Swap your regular conditioner for a deep-conditioning mask at least once a week. For extension wearers, this step is non-negotiable — extensions can’t pull natural oils from your scalp, so they need extra love.

3. Treat It to a Shine Boost
In-salon treatments, like the Oribe Mirror Rinse Glass Treatment, instantly restore softness and mirror-like shine. Think of it as a facial for your hair — instant results with long-lasting benefits.
4. Snip Away the Damage
If your ends are looking frayed or split, schedule a trim. Even a small dusting will help your hair look and feel healthier, and it prevents further breakage.
5. Protect It Going Forward
Keep your hair from drying out again by using a UV protectant spray before going outside, rinsing hair with fresh water before swimming, and applying a leave-in conditioner after.
The best recovery plan is one you stick with. Let us customize a hydration + repair regimen for your hair type so you can enjoy healthy, glossy hair all year round — no matter what the Florida sun throws at it.
