Seasonal haircare hacks: Savvy Hair
Award-winning hairstylist Sarah McGuigan reveals the three things everyone in the industry is talking about this season: the spring frizz, how to control the curl, and what enhancing your natural colour truly means. Here’s her team’s savviest tips for spring.
Spring frizz: How do I manage dry, frizzy hair in heat and humidity?
My biggest tip is to seal the hair with a lightweight serum or oil after styling. This helps smooth the cuticle, lock in moisture and create a barrier against humidity. Before styling, use a salon professional moisturising shampoo and conditioner, add a weekly treatment, style, and apply an anti-frizz product. Heat protection is essential when blowdrying, curling or straightening; use the right products for the best results. The ultimate service for taming frizz is our BKT Nanoplasty treatment system, which gives a smooth, shiny result for up to six months.
Control the curl: How do I look after and embrace my curls this season?
The key to beautiful curls in spring and summer is hydration, definition and less manipulation. Keep curls well moisturised with a nourishing conditioner and regular treatment, then use a curl cream or lightweight gel to enhance the natural shape. Scrunch product into soaking-wet hair and let the curls dry naturally, or use a diffuser with low heat and airflow. Don’t brush or touch curls while they’re drying – the less you disturb the curl pattern, the more defined and frizz-free they’ll be. Find the Clever Curl range in-salon.
Enhance your natural: How can I enhance my natural colour while adding fresh depth?
Work with your natural colour rather than against it. A gloss is a great way to refresh your existing colour, enhance shine and add richness between bigger colour appointments. For spring, think soft, dimensional colour: subtle highlights, lowlights, glosses or face-framing pieces that add brightness and movement without looking overdone.
