End of Summer Hair Repair

As we make the turn mid-season, we have to start thinking about end of summer hair repair. It happens. We like the sun. We like the casual feel of our hair blowing in the surf breeze, but with that comes a cost. Moisture depletion and damage can wreak havoc on your locks taking away your shine, color, and ability to hold your style from the heat’s stress. However, if you think ahead now, you may have less to deal with come summer’s end, or we can at least prepare you with the tools and strategies that will help you enter into fall with your hair integrity intact and ready for fall’s fun fashions.

It's Never Too Late To Start!

And your Kenneth’s Salons and Day Spas professional have solutions!

Hair that is exposed to sun and heat is thirsty. It needs nourishment. It needs protection. Kenneth’s fan favorite, Elixir 11 offers SPF, heat protection, hydration, and shine among its many attributes to make it the quintessential beach bag companion. Best used on towel-dried hair as a preparation for your daily styling regimen, but if you are a pool and beach goer, this can be your best friend. After swimming, rinse your hair with tap water to help rid the pool’s chemicals. Towel dry, and then add a few bursts of Elixir 11 and massage through your hair as you lay out. It will give you the hydration, sun protection, and nutrients that can be robbed from your favorite sun-drenched activities. (Available in travel sizes as well!)

If we are a bit late to get the above message, and your hair has seen some sun stressed days, your Kenneth’s stylist can custom blend one of our favorite treatments–The Total Hair Transformation at your next visit. We carefully balance ingredients that address your hair’s specific moisture and strength needs. Anyone who adds chemicals, heat, or styling can benefit from this and it only takes minutes to totally revitalize your hair! Upon return from your favorite vacation getaway, after color services, or to simply show your hair some added TLC, our THT is a hit!

Okay, your hair is green. Now what?

It happens to the best of our blondes who love their pool time and hot tubs. The chlorine used to keep pools and spas their beautiful blue mixes with the golden tones in hair creating a greenish hue that is not desirable. With that, “chlorine green” is not only an indicator of your hair being “stained,” but this caustic chemical can erode your hair’s cuticle which can lead to a “slimy” texture when wet, extreme tangling, dryness, color fading, and potential substructure damage.

Repairing the Damage

Repairing the Damage

Our first go to is our Malibu Treatment which helps remove the chemicals that continue to drain your hair’s health and help restore your natural color. Just minutes under a dryer will allow this to penetrate and begin repairing what pools can often take away. If damage and dryness from extreme exposure remain, we can then fold you into a regimen of the THT treatments for added repair. At times, the hair can become too compromised where the stylist’s scissors must come into play. Our stylists can always help you with a strategy to help you survive the damage, and all the while select a great new cut for the upcoming season. (But we like to try to save your hair first!)

Right now, if you have never had one of our highly effective restoring treatments, you can enjoy $5 off! Please ask your Kenneth’s stylist which of our popular treatments will best benefit you!

Get the Best Tools

Even though we find we enjoy a more casual style during the summer season, many still utilize their hot tools to give their style some pizzaz. However, regular use of your hot tools, coupled with summer’s sun, can wreak havoc if you do not take the proper precautions. We recommend using our Thermal Styling Spray to protect your hair from the extreme heat from your favorite appliances. A light mist will add glide to your tools, protect it from the heat, and because it helps boost the function of your tools, you will not need to hold your hot tools on the hair as long. Ask your stylist to show you how this product can enhance your favorite straighteners and curling irons.

If your current hot tools have seen better days, or if your new style has you in the market for a new hair helper, we have a Special Promotion on our Styling Tools until September 30, 2024 offering 15% off! Let us help you get the most from your styling regimen (and save your hair’s health) by picking up one of our favorite tools at any of our 10 locations!

Come in to your favorite Kenneth’s location today! We can make sure you have the tools, products, and treatments you need to arrive at summer’s end as well as year-round with the best tresses possible. But for now, if it is too hard to leave the pool or beach (we get it), we will be here end of summer for you to nourish, repair, and show your hair the love it deserves.

What Our Customers Are Saying...
Alison H
I’ve now had my second haircut at Kenneth’s Grove City with Judy and have nothing but great things to say! After not having my hair cut in 7 years I chose to book with Judy after reading other reviews and I’m so happy I did! Judy took time to talk through my hair care routine, hopes for a new cut, and took me through the steps of the process during my cuts. For my second cut we went for a short blunt bob and Judy was so encouraging and had great suggestions for the cut. It is the best hair cut I’ve had and so easy for me to style- I love it! Thanks for the top notch cut and service, Judy! From calling for an appointment to being welcomed at reception the experience at Kenneth’s Grove City has been wonderful and a great value. Especially if you’re on the fence about a new salon or stylist like I was you’re in great hands with Judy at Kenneth’s!

My hair was done by Rae. She told me she was a new stylist but I would have never know unless she had told me. In the 20plus years I have been getting my hair done, I have never been this happy with a stylist. Rae did an AMAZING job! I got all-over color, highlights & a cut and my hair looks stunning. I highly recommend Rae if you are looking for a new stylist or just want a change!
