As the scorching Indian summer approaches, rising temperatures, humidity, and pollution can take a toll on your skin, hair, and overall grooming. A well-planned salon routine can help you beat the heat while maintaining a fresh and radiant look. Here are some tips from Lemon Salons MD Qurat Syed Deshmukh to keep you glowing all summer long.
- Hair Care: Hydration & Protection
Opt for Hydrating Hair Treatments
The harsh summer sun can strip moisture from your hair, making it dry and frizzy. Regular deep-conditioning treatments like Keratin, Moroccan Oil Hair Spa, or Olaplex Therapy can restore hydration and strengthen your strands.
Go for Lighter Hair Colors
Darker hair colors tend to absorb more heat, leading to faster fading and dryness. Consider lighter shades like caramel, brown, or balayage to keep your hair looking vibrant and fresh.
Trim Split Ends Regularly
Frequent trims (every 6-8 weeks) prevent split ends and ensure healthier hair growth, especially in humid conditions.
Protect Your Hair from Sun Damage
- Use a UV-protection hair serum or spray.
- Cover your hair with a scarf or hat when stepping out.
- Avoid excessive heat styling—opt for air drying instead.
- Skin Care: Refresh & Rejuvenate
Get Summer-Friendly Facials
Sweat and pollution can clog pores, leading to acne and dull skin. Book hydrating and detoxifying facials such as:
- Aloe Vera & Cucumber Facial – Soothes sun-exposed skin.
- Vitamin C Facial – Brightens and reduces pigmentation.
- Hydra Facial – Deeply hydrates and rejuvenates the skin.
Exfoliate with Professional Treatments
Dead skin cells accumulate faster in summer, causing dullness. Microdermabrasion, fruit peels, or gentle scrubs can help unclog pores and refresh your skin.
Waxing & Hair Removal
Sweating makes hair removal a challenge in summer. Opt for chocolate or aloe vera waxing to soothe the skin and prevent irritation. Laser hair removal is also a great long-term solution.
- Hand & Foot Care: Keep It Cool
Regular Manicures & Pedicures
- Gel or breathable nail polishes last longer in humid weather.
- Cooling pedicures with mint, cucumber, or lemon can relax tired feet and prevent odor.
Foot Hygiene & Care
Summer heat leads to excessive sweating, causing foot infections. Go for anti-fungal foot spas to keep your feet fresh and soft.
- Makeup & Beauty Tips
Go for Waterproof Makeup
- Opt for oil-free foundations or BB creams to avoid breakouts.
- Use waterproof mascaras, eyeliners, and lip stains to prevent smudging.
- Switch to powder-based products over creamy formulas for a matte finish.
Keep Your Eyebrows & Lashes in Shape
Consider eyebrow threading, tinting, or semi-permanent makeup for a polished look without daily touch-ups.
- Body Care: Stay Fresh & Sweat-Free
Body Polishing & Scrubs
Summer sweat can make skin sticky and dull. A refreshing body polish with citrus or coffee scrubs can exfoliate dead skin and improve circulation.
Spray Tanning for a Sun-Kissed Glow
Instead of sun exposure, opt for professional spray tanning to achieve a bronzed look without UV damage.
- Hydration & Aftercare
Regardless of your salon treatments, drinking enough water, using SPF 50 sunscreen, and staying in shaded areas will enhance and prolong your results.
Final Tip: Visit your salon regularly for professional care and keep your summer beauty game strong! Stay cool, fresh, and flawless all season.
