Salon Trusted’s Guide to Post-Holiday Hair care
Whether you’ve just returned from a sunny getaway in the Mediterranean, a beach holiday in Spain, or a hiking adventure in the Scottish Highlands, your hair might need extra love and attention once you’re back.
Even if you were vacationing in the UK, our weather is famously unpredictable and this can leave your hair feeling worse for wear after a staycation.
With the right hair care routine with products and advice from Salon Trusted, you can restore your hair to its former glory.
Here’s your go-to guide for post-holiday hair care, packed with practical tips and expert advice to keep your hair looking fabulous all year round.
Here are a few important tips that will help you take great care of your hair and maintain healthy and regular hair care, after a vacation, or otherwise.
Here they are:
Regardless of where you are, keep your hair hydrated as it is crucial. Invest in good quality hair care with proper hair oils, hair masks, shampoos and conditioners.
Hair oils are a game-changer for post-holiday hair care. No wonder oil has always been the go-to hair care for millennial. After your holiday, your hair might be parched or frizzy from sun exposure, salty sea air, or chlorinated pools. Add good hair oil into your routine to help restore moisture, add shine, and protect against further damage. Apply a small amount to the ends of your hair daily.
Since holidays are just a short time away from home, your hair may not be used to the foreign weather conditions it was exposed to during your holiday. Book a hair trim every six to eight weeks to keep split ends at bay and maintain healthy hair. A fresh trim helps your hair look fuller and more vibrant, which may just be what you need after a holiday.
UV rays can affect your hair, even on cloudy days, and if you were at a sunny holiday destination, you may have exposed your hair to a higher level and frequency of UV rays than it is used to. Your hair must have taken a bit of a beating. Use a UV protectant spray or serum to shield your hair from further damage and keep your hair colour from fading.
After a holiday, your scalp is bound to be more sensitive or prone to dryness. Switch to a gentle, sulphate-free shampoo to help maintain your hair’s natural oils and avoid further moisture loss. Washing your hair every other day or even less frequently can also help reduce stress on your hair and scalp. This will keep your hair healthier in the long run.
Give your hair a weekly treat with a deep conditioning mask. This is especially important after a holiday when your hair may be craving some extra nourishment. Look for masks that contain hydrating ingredients to help restore its softness and shine.
After a holiday, especially in a sunny destination, your hair might already be stressed from the extra sun or saltwater exposure. Give it a break from heat-styling tools for a week or two. It will help your hair recover faster. If you do need to use heat, always apply a heat protectant spray before using the heat styling tools to minimise the damage.
A healthy scalp is the foundation for healthy hair. Post-holiday, your scalp might be dry, itchy, or flaky due to sun exposure or changes in moisture quality. Use a gentle scalp scrub or a treatment to keep your scalp clean and balanced.
Both hair oils and masks play their due part in post-holiday hair care, each offering unique benefits that complement each other.
Hair oils penetrate the hair shaft, providing deep nourishment. They are especially effective for restoring moisture and adding shine, making them ideal for use after exposure to sun and saltwater. Oils can also help in detangling your hair and protecting it from further damage.
Hair masks are like a more intensive conditioner. They are packed with nutrients and hydrating ingredients that can repair and restore your hair after a holiday. Depending on the mask you choose, you can address specific hair concerns like dryness, damage, or dullness. Using a hair mask once a week can significantly improve your hair’s texture, softness, and overall health.
In combination, oils and masks can transform your hair, making it look and feel as good as new after a holiday. Start with oiling your hair a few hours before washing, then follow up with a deep conditioning mask to lock in moisture and repair any damage.
Oiling your hair offers numerous benefits, especially after a holiday.
Here are the top 5 benefits of making oiling a crucial part in your post-holiday hair care routine:
Holidays often mean exposure to foreign and external elements that can dry out your hair, like sun, wind, and saltwater. Oiling helps replenish the moisture you have lost on your vacation. It will help you keep your hair soft and hydrated.
Oils penetrate deep into the hair shaft, strengthening your hair from within. This helps reduce breakage and split ends. Regular and evenly oiling your scalp will keep your hair healthy and strong.
If your hair looks dull and lifeless after your holiday, oiling can bring back that much-needed shine. Oils like argan, barbary, or rose can add a beautiful gloss to your hair all the while nourishing it from within.
Massaging oil into your scalp improves blood circulation. This helps in delivering nutrients to your hair follicles, promoting healthier hair growth. Equally using a detangler while oiling and the benefits will double!
Regular oiling creates a protective barrier around your hair, shielding it from further damage from external factors such as wind, air, sun, etc. It helps in making your hair strong and resilient to being easily damaged.
Here are the most oils by Schwarzkopf Oil Ultime on Salon Trusted . We will be adding more oils in the coming weeks. Be sure to revisit:

Here are the best Color Wow Dream Filter products for your post-holiday hair care routine. Available in 50ml, 200ml and 500ml.
Scalp Massagers are a must need tool for that TLC your hair needs. They are specifically designed to help detox the scalp and scrub away unwanted build up. A detangler can be a great tool to add to your hair care kit. It helps with evenly oiling and preventing breakage while brushing.
Here are 5 benefits of using detangling brushes and scalp massagers after a holiday:
After a holiday, with foreign weather and external factors affecting and tangling your hair, using a detangling brush will help you reduce breakage. The detanglers are designed in such a way that they easily work through the knots without breaking your hair or pulling it.
If your hair is curly or prone to knots, a detangler will help you style your hair. You will spend your time taking care of your hair rather than battling your hair to style it properly.
Use a scalp massager with oil and massage evenly all over your scalp. These tools are ideal for distributing the oil evenly throughout your hair. They ensure that every strand gets the right nourishment from the oil, making your hair smoother, shinier, and healthier.
Scalp Massagers have a dual-teeth design, usually made of silicone. These are gentle on your scalp as opposed to plastic balls on a steely spike which may be dislodged and cause irritation or even a scar. A healthy scalp is essential for healthy hair, making detanglers a great tool for scalp comfort.
Here are the most popular Tangle Teezer Scalp Massagers available on our website along with more Tangle Teezer’s for your post holiday haircare routine!
Taking care of your hair after a holiday doesn’t have to be a nuisance.

Once you’re back in the UK, you’ll have the same wonderful hair you’ve always had and wanted.
With the right hair oils, hair masks, and hair care routine from Salon Trusted, you can keep your hair fresh and great!

Hot Curl Summer – Curly Hair in the Heat
Since summer is here, you may be heading out to the sun, sea, and sand. But if you have curly hair, the heat and humidity will pose a few challenges, you’ll likely have been facing the same hair issues all these years!
At Salon Trusted, we understand that curly hair differs from every other type of hair. If you have been blessed with curly hair, you already know that your hair is more porous, and it absorbs and loses moisture faster than other types. What does that do? Instead of giving you the ideal bouncy ringlets of your dreams, you end up with a frizzy untameable lion’s mane.
Don’t worry, read this blog where we share numerous tips on how to protect your hair against the summer heat, how to keep your hair curly and bouncy, and what curly haircare products to use.
First of all, we need to understand how curly hair is different from every other type. We know you already know how it appears different, but we mean to make you understand why it ‘behaves’ differently. Curly hair strands grow in spirals with a comparatively higher number of twists and bends than straight hair. Since the natural oils from your scalp find it harder to travel from the roots down to the tip of each strand, your curly hair becomes prone to dryness and frizz. Additionally, there are so many subtypes within the curly hair type, since each curl can develop its personality and needs, just like you – unique down to the core! All this can make your curly hair slightly more high maintenance than the rest of the hair types.
Here are some easy-to-remember tips that will help you protect your beautiful curly hair against the summer heat:
Always keep yourself properly hydrated. Drinks loads of water. The more you drink, the more your curls will stay hydrated. Water is an essential ingredient in keeping your moisture levels in check and avoiding frizz easily.
If you wash your hair too often, it removes all the essential natural oils that keep your hair moisturised and healthy. Washing your hair once or twice a week is a good practice. Matrix A Curl Can Dream Shampoo and Conditioner Litre Duo.
It is always advisable to use a heat protectant before you use any kind of heat-styling tool. It will keep your curls protected from the damaging effects of high temperatures.
Just like how your skin needs UV protection from harmful sun rays, your hair needs it too. Use UV hair protection products that will keep your curls safe.
We all enjoy a dip in the pool to cool down during the summer. But remember that chlorine is the enemy of curly hair and it can break and dry up your hair. Before dipping into the pool, use a leave-in conditioner to create a barrier. Once you are out of the pool, thoroughly rinse, and then condition your curly hair.
The summer sun can easily dry up your curls. Deep conditioning your curly hair regularly with mask found on Salon Trusted.
Embrace your natural curls during the summertime. Don’t over-style your hair as it may deprive your curly hair of the moisture and oils it needs. Don’t weigh down your hair with too many products.
Here is a list of 5 easy and quick tips for curly hair care during the summer:
Try using a curl-refreshing spray to rejuvenate your curls between washes. It will help you redefine your curls and reduce the amount of frizz for the entire day.
Do not use tight hair ties. Instead, try using soft scrunchies or spiral hair ties as these will have a limiting effect on your curls. Tighter hair ties can easily damage your hair and affect your curling pattern. You can browse the accessories sections on Salon Trusted to find the right scrunchies and spiral hair ties.
Natural hair oils are the best way to rejuvenate your natural curls. They can help lock in moisture and nourish your curls with the right ingredients. Apply small amounts to keep your curls shiny and hydrated. Try Insight Elasti-Curl – Bouncy Curls Hair Oil or the Matrix A Curl Can Dream Oil.
At SalonTrusted, we have curly hair detanglers that are ideal for curly hair care.
Here are three reasons why curl hair detanglers are good for you:
Detanglers are designed to minimise hair breakage as they naturally help ease out the knots and tangles in your curly hair. They provide a good slip that allows it to smoothly glide through your curls.
Detanglers smooth out knots and tangles to help significantly reduce frizz. This will help your curly hair look more defined and less unruly. It will give your curly hair the beautiful hairdo that you want.
Detanglers are great for saving you time and effort as they make your curly hair more manageable and easier to style. You can go through your curly hair routine far more easily than ever before.
Here are the top three curl hair detanglers available on Salon Trusted:
The Matrix A Curl Can Dream Scrunch-and-Go Leave-In Spray is a game-changer for curly hair. It offers a simple, fuss-free way of styling your curls while providing you with the necessary moisture and definition. The spray is perfect for lazy summer days when you want to embrace your natural curls without spending too much time on your hair. Just spray, scrunch, and go! It is that easy! The leave-in spray will nourish your curls with the right ingredients and help you define your curls, maintain moisture and hydration, and reduce frizz, throughout the day.
The Matrix A Curl Can Dream range is exceptional for curly haircare as it is designed to keep your curls hydrated, defined, and enhanced. You can find the following in this range:

These products will bring the bounce back to your curls!

Always go for a cool rinse when washing your hair during the summertime, this helps to seal in the cuticles and makes your hair shinier.

Chlorine is a big no-no for blonde hair. We understand that summers naturally invite you to pools and poolside parties where you may indulge in a dip or two. But swimming in a chlorine-heavy pool for a long duration will damage your hair a lot. The best way to swim in such pools is to reduce your swimming time and to wet your hair with fresh water before you take the plunge. This wetting adds a protective layer to your hair. But it won’t be too effective if you keep swimming for hours at a stretch.
Use the Color Wow Dream Filter after a day at the pool. This product is perfect for anyone that would like to keep their hair colour and/or highlights (chemically and naturally!) fresh, light and bright. It does this by taking away the environmental elements that destroy your lovely colour. This includes traces of calcium, magnesium, copper, iron, manganese, aluminium, and chlorine.

Some of these are shoulder-length bobs, jaw-length bobs, Italian bobs, choppy chin-length bobs, curly bobs, soft curved bobs, cheekbone-grazing 90s bobs, Pulp Fiction’s Mia Wallace-inspired bobs, blunt bobs, and so many more.
Here are a few pictures for your inspiration:
This hairstyle is versatile because it works for any type of hair, curly, silky, etc. And you can always switch up the style by trying out a new texture or making it with a new part.
If you’ve got curly hair, the classic shaggy style is a great look for the summer. It’s instant, requires minimal effort, and looks flawlessly messy. Some popular variations are short and wild shag, the modern shag, the short shag, the shoulder-cut shag, shaggy bangs, and more.
The shaggy look is quick and easy, layer it up, or tie it up in a ponytail for that summer heat. It’s easy to handle and easy to style.

If you have angular or pixie-esque face features, you can don a pixie cut. This very sleek and short hairstyle has been trending a lot for two years now with some of the A-list celebrities showcasing it at major events. Florence Pugh, Zoe Kravitz, Emma Corrin, and more have been seen with pixie cuts that have stolen hearts at movie premieres.
Since it’s a small and easy-to-maintain cut, it goes well with oval faces, round faces, and even heart-shaped faces.

This is a longer variation of the bob, also called the ‘lob’. For finer hair, and with a good volume, it’s a great hairstyle to wear this summer. It’s easy to maintain and you can keep it at the chin or to the shoulder, it’s up to you. It can be tied back in a ponytail for a fresher look and to beat the summer heat. It has been used to create a flattering and balanced look.
Many celebrities have been recently seen donning it everywhere, including Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Rihanna, and Claire Danes among a few.
Here are a few pictures to inspire you:
Bangs will never go out of style. They are in this summer as well. The macro bangs have been trending since the Paris Fashion Week, and after the 2024 Grammy Awards, the bangs made a comeback. Celebrities like Lana Del Rey and Anne Hathaway have been seen gracing the bangs at a few award shows.
The bangs are versatile too, as these can be styled with short hair lengths as well as longer lengths that go down to the shoulders or bust.
Here are a few pictures to inspire you:
Long layers are in style and these involve cutting the hair at different lengths to add volume, texture, and movement, all the while maintaining length.
Last year, we witnessed one-length longer styles, popularly called ‘waterfall layers’, but this year, we have so many variations of the layers seen on celebrities.
The best thing about the layers is that it is suitable for most hair lengths and hair volume. You can play around and create a look that best suits you. Some popular variations include long layers, choppy layers, textured layers, flippy layers, shaggy layers and more.
Here are a few pictures to inspire you:

Salon Trusted Guide to Damaged Hair and How to Prevent It
SalonTrusted.com believes everyone is entitled to beautiful, healthy, and strong hair. We ensure this is possible by offering you the very best professional hair supplies and products to help your hair stay great.
Many tell-tale signs can help you identify if your hair is getting damaged. If you act timely, you can ensure that the damage is stopped and nurtured back to health.
There can be numerous reasons for hair damage including excessive exposure to heat, being chemically treated, inconsistent and unhealthy diet, too much brushing, over washing, bleach, dye, stress, and more.
In this blog, we’ll showcase great hair products that will help you stop the damage, and repair it. You won’t have to worry about how to protect damaged hair.
Below we will also be comparing the top two hair products we recommend for hair damage. These are the Matrix Biolage Strength Recovery range and the Matrix Biolage Bond Therapy; the former helps in repairing damage done by heat exposure and the latter helps in repairing hair damage caused by overprocessed and chemical treatments.
Here are some of the most common signs to look for when identifying hair damage:
You may end up with frizzy hair if you are using the wrong hair products for your hair type. This type of hair becomes unmanageable and is often a sign of hair damage.
Frizzy hair can be managed using hair products that are right for your hair type. You can often remedy frizzy hair by simply getting frequent haircuts as split ends are a common occurrence when growing out your hair.
Use Biolage Smoothproof Range to help combat your frizz!
2. Hair turning grey
If you inherited early greying of hair from your paternal or maternal side, there isn’t much to remedy that. Genetics cannot be altered using hair products.
However, a few scientific studies suggest that low levels of copper, zinc, iron, ferritin, vitamin D-3, and calcium may cause your hair to turn grey prematurely.
Some of the common remedies for greying hair are taking a balanced diet, using herbs, and regularly taking supplements.
Better yet why not embrace your hair turning grey!
3. Coarse or dry hair
Once again, exposure to heat can also cause your hair to become coarse and dry. This may be due to the haircare devices you use.
Other reasons may include over washing, bleaching, using hair dyes, and chemically treating your hair with harmful or cheap hair products.
If your hair is either coarse or dry we would recommend using Biolage Hydrasource.
4. Hair thinning
Hair can easily start thinning if you are stressed a lot or if you have a poor diet, especially as you age.
Try to practise mindfulness to reduce your stress, and manage your anxiety to stop the triggers.

If your everyday hairstyles are created with the use of curling wands, hair dryers, and straighteners, you may end up damaging your hair.
