My 5 Summer Hair Care Favorites
MY SUMMER HAIR CARE FAVORITES
Between sun, sweat, saltwater, and city humidity, summer can be tough on our hair. Whether you’re trying to maintain your color, beat the frizz, or just keep your strands feeling healthy through long beach days and rooftop nights, the right products make all the difference.
These are five haircare products I’ve been using on repeat this summer. Whether I’m air drying, pulling my hair back for a hot day in the city, or doing a deeper treatment after a beach weekend, these have all earned a spot in my weekly rotation. Keep reading for my go-to picks that keep my hair healthy, shiny, and humidity-proof.
1. Color Wow Dreamcoat Supernatural Spray
If you’ve ever struggled with frizz in the summer (hi, same!), this spray actually lives up to the hype. It acts like a waterproof shield for your hair, sealing in shine, blocking out humidity, and keeping your style smooth even on the muggiest days. I spray it on damp hair before blow-drying and the results are glassy, frizz-free strands that last for days. Tip: You have to use more product thank you think!
2. R+Co Dart Pomade Stick
This little stick has become my secret weapon for slicked back buns and taming flyaways in seconds. I love that it’s compact enough to throw in my bag for touch-ups, and it never feels too sticky or greasy. A summer essential for those days when your hair needs to be up (along with this gel).
3. Crown Affair The Texturizing Air Dry Mousse
I try to limit heat styling in the summer, and this mousse has made air-drying so much easier. It gives my hair just the right amount of hold and texture without feeling crunchy, and it smells incredible (like all Crown Affair products). I scrunch it into damp hair and let it air dry for soft, natural waves.
4. Kristin Ess Ultra Light Curl + Waves Defining Cream
This lightweight cream is perfect when I want extra definition and frizz control, especially on days when I’m letting my natural waves do their thing. It hydrates without weighing my hair down, and helps keep everything soft and touchable. Bonus: it’s under $20 and available at Ulta!
5. Crown Affair The Renewal Hydrating Hair Mask
After long days in the sun, I try to do a deep conditioning treatment at least once a week, and this one is my favorite right now. It leaves my hair feeling so soft and silky, and the rich formula helps repair dryness without being too heavy. I love using it on a Sunday night to reset for the week ahead!
