Your Hair’s Ultimate Summer Survival Guide
How To Protect And Restore Your Hair In Summer?
Sunshine, sea and pool days may be part of the summer agenda but they can take a serious toll on your hair. From UV exposure to chlorine, salt water and heat, summer conditions can leave hair feeling dry, dull and harder to manage - especially for extensions.
That’s why your summer haircare routine should focus on two things: protecting hair before damage happens and restoring hydration afterwards. The Beauty Works Solaré Sunshield Collection is designed to do exactly that, helping keep hair and extensions feeling soft, smooth and salon-fresh all season long.
Why Does Summer Damage Your Hair?
While hair doesn’t burn like skin, UV rays can still weaken the hair fibre and strip moisture from the lengths. Add chlorine, sea salt, sand and mineral build-up into the mix, and hair can quickly lose its shine and softness.
Extensions can be especially vulnerable during summer, which is why Beauty Works advises avoiding chlorinated and salt water where possible, as exposure may cause irreversible damage.
The key to healthier summer hair? A before-and-after routine that protects during exposure and restores afterwards.
How Can You Protect Hair Before Sun Exposure?
The Solaré UV Leave-In Conditioning Mist is designed to shield hair and extensions from UV exposure while helping maintain hydration, softness and shine throughout the day.
This ultra-lightweight leave-in mist helps detangle and condition without weighing hair down, making it ideal for beach days, holidays and poolside styling.
Formulated with UV filters and bond repair technology, it helps support the hair fibre during exposure to summer elements, while Aloe Vera, Vitamin E, Coconut Oil and Shea Butter nourish the lengths.
How To Use
-
Mist through dry or damp hair before sun exposure
-
Reapply throughout the day during prolonged sun exposure
-
Brush through lengths with a detangling brush to evenly distribute product
-
Suitable for natural hair and extensions
How can I Remove Salt, Chlorine And Summer Build-Up?
After a day in the sun, your hair needs more than a standard wash. Salt, chlorine and SPF residue can build up on the scalp and lengths, leaving hair feeling heavy and dry.
The Solaré Cleanse Shampoo is a lightweight sulfate-free formula designed to remove summer build-up while refreshing both scalp and lengths.
Enriched with Fermented Rice Water, known for its nourishing properties and rich blend of amino acids, antioxidants and B vitamins, the formula helps support smoother, shinier and healthier-looking hair after cleansing. It helps maintain softness and manageability while leaving hair feeling lightweight and revitalised. For best results, we recommend using the Solaré Cleanse Shampoo 1–2 times a week to help keep hair and extensions feeling fresh, clean and manageable.

How Do You Restore Hydration After Sun Exposure?
Sun exposure can leave hair dehydrated, rough and difficult to style. That’s where deep hydration becomes essential.
The Solaré Hydration Mask replenishes moisture lost through sun, sea and pool days, helping restore softness and smoothness through the lengths.
Powered by Fermented Rice Water and Seaweed Extract, the nourishing formula supports hydration while helping improve manageability and shine. Anti-pollution technology also helps keep hair feeling conditioned and smoother after exposure to summer stressors.
How To Use
-
Apply to mid-lengths and ends after shampooing
-
Leave on for 5–10 minutes
-
Rinse thoroughly
-
Use regularly throughout summer for enhanced hydration support

After sun, sea and pool days, use the Solaré Cleanse Shampoo to help remove chlorine, salt water and mineral build-up while refreshing both the scalp and lengths without stripping moisture.
Step 3: Restore Hydration With The Hydration Mask
Complete your routine with the Solaré Hydration Mask to replenish lost moisture, helping leave hair feeling softer, smoother and easier to manage after summer exposure.

From UV protection before sun exposure to deep cleansing and hydration afterwards, the Solaré Sunshield Collection is designed to support your hair through every stage of summer.
