To care for your hair in summer in Ibiza, it is important to protect it from the sun, salt, chlorine and humidity, keep it well hydrated and adapt your routine to the condition of your hair. If your hair is coloured, dry, frizzy or weakened, it may need specific care or a professional treatment to restore shine, softness and strength.
Summer in Ibiza has many advantages, but it also exposes the hair to constant external stress. The sun, sea, swimming pool, wind, humidity and frequent washing can leave the hair looking drier, duller, frizzier or harder to manage.
That is why hair care during this season should not be limited to applying a hair mask from time to time. The key is to understand what your hair needs, how to protect it before exposure and when it may be advisable to book a professional treatment.
Why hair is more easily damaged in summer in Ibiza
During summer, the hair is exposed to several external factors that can affect its texture, shine and strength. In Ibiza, this exposure is often more intense due to the combination of sun, sea, swimming pools, humidity and outdoor activities.
The sun can contribute to loss of luminosity and leave the hair drier or weaker, especially if it is already coloured, bleached or chemically treated. Sea salt can dry out the hair fibre and make the hair feel rougher. Chlorine from swimming pools can also alter the appearance of the hair, particularly in lighter hair, highlights or balayage.
Frequent washing, heat tools, tight hairstyles and constant exposure to wind or humidity can also affect the hair. The result is often hair with less softness, more frizz and a greater feeling of fragility.
Summer does not damage the hair because of one single factor, but because of the combination of sun, salt, chlorine, humidity, frequent washing and lack of proper protection.
How to protect your hair from the sun, salt and chlorine
Prevention is essential to keep your hair cared for during summer. It is not only about repairing damage once it appears, but about reducing aggressive exposure from the beginning.
One of the first recommendations is to rinse the hair with fresh water after swimming in the sea or pool. Leaving salt or chlorine in the hair for many hours can increase dryness and roughness.
It is also advisable to use specific hair protection products before sun exposure, especially if the hair is coloured, dry or bleached. These products help create a barrier against external factors and can help preserve texture and colour.
During beach or pool days, it is best to avoid hairstyles that are too tight, especially when the hair is wet, as it can be more vulnerable in that state. Soft updos, loose braids or scarves can be better options to protect the hair without creating tension.
It is also important to reduce excessive use of straighteners, curling tools or high-temperature blow-dryers. In summer, the hair is already exposed to external heat, so adding more thermal stress can worsen dryness or breakage.
Caring for your hair in summer is not only about hydrating it, but about protecting it before, during and after exposure to the sun, salt and chlorine.
Specific care for coloured hair, balayage or highlights
Coloured hair, balayage or highlights need special attention during summer. Since the hair has undergone colour or bleaching processes, it can be more sensitive to dryness, loss of shine and changes in tone.
The sun, salt and chlorine can alter the appearance of the colour, make it look duller or affect the brightness of the hair. In the case of balayage, maintaining a natural and beautiful result depends both on the technique performed in the salon and on the aftercare.
To care for colour during summer, it is advisable to use products specifically designed for coloured hair, avoid harsh washing and protect the hair before sun exposure. It can also be helpful to reduce the use of heat tools and reinforce hydration with masks or adapted treatments.
If the colour starts to look dull, the hair feels more porous or the ends lose softness, a professional consultation may be necessary. In some cases, the hair needs hydration; in others, nutrition, repair or even a toner to bring balance back to the colour.
Good colour does not depend only on the technique performed in the salon, but also on the maintenance afterwards, especially during summer.
How to avoid frizz during summer
Frizz is one of the most common concerns during summer, especially in humid areas such as Ibiza. When the hair is dry, porous or weakened, it tends to absorb more humidity from the environment, which can cause frizz, loss of shape and difficulty when styling.
To reduce frizz, the first step is to maintain good hair hydration. Hydrated hair usually has better texture, more flexibility and a more controlled appearance.
It is also important to avoid excessive friction when drying the hair. Rubbing it harshly with a towel can increase frizz and weaken the hair fibre. It is better to remove excess water gently and use suitable finishing products to control texture.
In summer, it is also advisable to avoid overusing straighteners or heat tools. Although they may provide an immediate finish, frequent use on dry or damaged hair can worsen fragility and frizz.
When the hair is very porous or difficult to control, a professional treatment can help improve softness, manageability and the overall finish.
Hydration, nutrition or repair: what does your hair need?
One of the most common mistakes in summer is thinking that all damaged hair needs the same treatment. However, dehydrated hair is not the same as hair lacking nutrition or hair with structural damage.
Not all damaged hair needs the same thing: some hair needs hydration, some needs nutrition and some needs repair.
Hair hydration
Hair hydration is usually recommended when the hair feels dry, rough, dull or lacks flexibility. It is a frequent need during summer, especially after several days of exposure to the sun, beach or swimming pool.
A hydrating treatment can help improve softness, shine and the feeling of lightness in the hair. It can also be useful for hair that tangles easily or has lost elasticity.
Hair nutrition
Hair nutrition is more related to a lack of lipids and softness. It may be needed for drier, thicker, more porous hair or hair prone to frizz.
This type of care helps the hair feel more manageable, flexible and protected. In summer, it can be especially useful when the hair loses body, looks dull or becomes harder to style.
Hair repair
Hair repair is recommended when there is deeper damage: breakage, weakness, fragile ends or hair altered by chemical processes such as bleaching, frequent colouring or previous treatments.
In these cases, it is important not to promise complete recovery if the hair is severely damaged. The right approach is to carry out a professional assessment to determine which type of treatment can improve its appearance, feel, strength and visible health.
The first step is not to choose a treatment at random, but to identify what the hair really needs.
A basic routine to care for your hair during your holidays in Ibiza
If you are spending a few days in Ibiza, you can follow a simple routine to prevent your hair from reaching the end of summer overly dry or weakened.
After the beach or pool, rinse your hair with fresh water whenever possible. This helps remove traces of salt or chlorine and reduces the feeling of roughness.
Use a hydrating mask once or twice a week, depending on the condition of your hair. If it is very dry, coloured or bleached, it may need more frequent or more specific care.
Detangle your hair carefully, especially when it is wet. It is better to use a suitable comb and start from the ends, avoiding pulling that could encourage breakage.
Avoid sleeping with your hair full of salt, chlorine or beach products. Although it may seem like a minor detail, leaving residues in the hair for many hours can increase dryness.
Reduce the use of heat tools and, if you use them, always apply heat protection. In summer, the hair is already exposed to high temperatures and needs more careful treatment.
If you have colour, balayage or highlights, use products designed for coloured hair and consider visiting the salon if you notice loss of shine, changes in tone or excessive porosity.
Instead of waiting until the hair is very damaged at the end of summer, it is better to introduce small care habits during the season and reinforce them with the right treatment if the hair starts to lose softness, shine or strength.
When to book a professional hair treatment
A professional hair treatment may be recommended when the hair starts to show clear signs of damage or imbalance. Some of the most common signs are persistent dryness, lack of shine, frizz, rough texture, breakage or difficulty styling the hair.
It may also be necessary when the colour has lost luminosity, when the ends are very weakened or when the hair has been exposed for many days to the sun, salt and chlorine.
Another common situation is not knowing what the hair really needs. Many people apply hydrating products when the hair actually needs repair, or look for nutrition when the main issue is dehydration. That is why a professional assessment helps choose the most appropriate treatment.
At Laura Furné Beauty Salon, hair treatments are adapted to the condition of the hair and to each client’s needs. The initial assessment allows us to define whether the hair needs hydration, nutrition, repair or specific care for coloured, weakened or summer-exposed hair.
Hair treatments in Ibiza to restore your hair after summer
After an intense season of sun, beach, swimming pool and humidity, the hair may need deeper care. Professional hair treatments can help improve softness, shine, texture and manageability.
In these cases, the important thing is not to choose a treatment only by its name, but according to the real needs of the hair. Dull hair may need hydration; more porous hair may require nutrition; and hair weakened by colouring or bleaching may need repair.
At Laura Furné Beauty Salon, we work with treatments from a personalised approach, adapting each service to the condition of the hair and the desired result. Our treatment menu addresses different needs, from hydration and repair to specific care designed to improve the appearance and visible health of the hair.

How to keep your hair cared for after leaving the salon
The result of a hair treatment does not depend only on the service performed in the salon. Aftercare is essential to prolong its benefits and keep the hair in better condition.
After a treatment, it is advisable to follow professional recommendations regarding products, washing frequency and specific care. Not all hair needs the same routine, so adapting maintenance is part of the process.
It is also important to maintain regular hydration, avoid overly aggressive products and protect the hair if intense exposure to the sun, sea or pool continues.
For coloured, balayage or bleached hair, maintenance is even more important. Using the right products and scheduling follow-up appointments when necessary helps preserve colour, shine and texture.
A professional treatment can improve the visible condition of the hair, but daily care is what helps maintain it over time.
