Summer is here, and that means it’s time to refresh our salon essentials to help clients beat the heat and humidity. UNITE has got us covered with some incredible products that are perfect for summer hair care. Here are four must-haves that should be on every hairdresser’s list this season:
7Seconds Detangled
Why We Love It:
The 7Seconds Detangler is a game-changer, especially in the summer when hair tends to get drier and more prone to tangles. This leave-in conditioner not only detangles in a flash but also provides UV and thermal protection, making it ideal for clients who spend a lot of time outdoors or use heat styling tools.
How to Use:
Spray the 7Seconds Detangler onto damp hair right after washing. Comb through to distribute evenly and then style as desired. It’s perfect for prepping hair for any summer hairstyle, ensuring smooth, manageable locks every time.
Pro Tip:
Use it before cutting hair to ensure an even, precise cut. It helps the hair lay flat and smooth, giving you a perfect canvas to work on.
U-Oil
Why We Love It:
U-Oil is a lightweight yet powerful argan oil that adds instant shine and smoothness to hair without weighing it down. It’s perfect for combating frizz and dryness, which are common summer hair woes. Plus, it provides a beautiful, healthy-looking finish.
How to Use:
Apply a small amount of U-Oil to damp or dry hair, focusing on the mid-lengths and ends. It can be used before blow-drying for added smoothness or as a finishing touch to tame flyaways and add shine.
Pro Tip:
Mix a few drops of U-Oil with your favorite leave-in conditioner or styling cream for an extra boost of hydration and shine. It’s a versatile product that enhances any hair care routine.
Silky:Smooth Heat Activator
Why We Love It:
Summer often means more heat styling as clients aim for sleek, polished looks that can withstand humidity. The Silky:Smooth Heat Activator is a fantastic product that not only protects hair from heat damage but also smooths and strengthens it.
How to Use:
Apply to damp hair before blow-drying or using any heat styling tools. This lightweight spray ensures the hair stays smooth, shiny, and protected, making it a staple for summer styling.
Pro Tip:
For clients with particularly stubborn frizz, layer the Silky:Smooth Heat Activator with U-Oil for a double dose of smoothness and protection. Your clients will love the results!
U-Fresh Conditioner
Why We Love It:
Between beach trips and summer vacations, washing hair every day isn’t always practical. The U-Fresh Conditioner is a dry conditioner that refreshes hair, adds moisture, and detangles without the need for water. It’s perfect for those in-between wash days.
How to Use:
Spray onto dry hair, focusing on the mid-lengths and ends. Brush through to distribute evenly and style as desired. It leaves hair feeling soft, fresh, and manageable, making it a great on-the-go product.
Pro Tip:
Recommend this to clients who are traveling or hitting the gym regularly. It’s a quick fix to keep their hair looking and feeling great between washes.
