Summer hair tips from the KURO stylists

Before diving into the stylists’ personal tips, you can also read our full guide on how to protect your hair from sun, sea and pool. It explains the basics of summer hair protection, from UV exposure to chlorine and salt water.

Protect your hair before sun, sea and styling

Summer haircare starts before your hair feels dry. Especially when your hair is coloured, blonde, curly or often heat-styled, protection is the easiest way to keep it soft, strong and manageable.

Wiardi’s summer hair tip

For Wiardi, the most important summer hair tip is simple: protect your hair from the sun. Just like your skin, your hair needs a layer of protection before it is exposed to UV rays, heat and humidity.

His favourite product for this is Oribe Invisible Defense Universal Protection Spray. You can use it on damp or dry hair, which makes it easy to apply before styling, before going outside or before a long day in the sun. For humid weather, Wiardi also recommends Oribe Impermeable Anti-Humidity Spray. It works like a shield against humidity and was Miami-tested, which says enough.

For curls, Wiardi always brings Oribe Styling Butter. It keeps curls soft, smooth and nicely styled without making them feel heavy.

His favourite quick summer styling trick? Apply a hair mask or conditioner, then create a sleek bun. It looks polished and fashionable, while your hair is being cared for at the same time. Perfect for warm days when you want your hair out of your face, but still want it to look intentional.

Book your appointment with Wiardi if your curls, colour or summer styling routine could use a little KURO care before the holidays.

Qasim’s summer hair tip

Qasim’s best summer hair tip is to focus on protection and hydration before styling. Sun exposure and dehydration can make a big difference to the quality of your hair, especially when it is coloured, blonde or regularly styled with heat.

For styling, Qasim recommends Sam McKnight Cool Girl Barely There Texture Mist. It gives effortless texture and soft movement, while keeping the hair looking natural. Exactly the kind of undone, airy texture that works beautifully in summer.

When sun, sea, chlorine or humidity are involved, Qasim recommends applying leave-in protection before exposure, rinsing the hair after swimming and keeping the styling soft and adaptable to the weather. In summer, hydration and protection are often more important than using too many products.

His favourite quick summer hairstyle is a clean soft bun or effortless textured waves with natural movement. Elegant, manageable and perfect for both everyday summer hair and holiday styling.

Hydrate after sun, sea and chlorine

Sun, sea and chlorine can leave the hair feeling dry, rough or frizzy. That is why hydration is one of the most important steps in a good summer hair routine.

Nancy’s summer hair tip

Nancy’s best summer and holiday hair tip is to keep the hair hydrated after sun, sea and chlorine. During a trip to Aruba, she noticed even more how important moisture and protection are in warm weather.

The product she would always bring on holiday is Oribe Gold Lust Nourishing Hair Oil or Treatment Serum. It keeps the hair soft, smooth and protected from dryness and frizz after a day in the sun or sea.

When there is a lot of sun, sea, chlorine or humidity involved, Nancy likes to use a nourishing serum or oil before and after swimming. This helps protect the hair and keeps it more manageable throughout the day. She also prefers to avoid too much heat styling on holiday and lets the hair air dry naturally whenever possible.

Her favourite quick summer hairstyle is a loose slick bun or effortless beach waves. Easy, chic and perfect for warm days.

Book your appointment with Nancy if your hair needs more moisture, movement or care before summer.

How to care for curly hair in summer

Curly hair can react strongly to salt water, chlorine and sun. A few small steps before and after swimming can make a big difference in how soft and defined your curls feel.

Maude’s summer hair tip

Maude’s best tip is especially helpful if you spend a lot of time in the sea or swimming pool. Hair swells when it gets wet. If you wet your hair with tap water before going into the sea or pool, the hair fills itself with cleaner water first. This means it absorbs less salt or chlorine, which can help reduce dryness and damage.

At the end of a beach day, Maude loves Oribe Eternal Curls Cleansing Crème. It is ideal when you do not want to fully wash your curls yet, but you do want to gently rinse away salt, sand and that dry beach feeling.

After that, she likes to apply a little Oribe Styling Butter and let the hair air dry. Soft curls, less effort and ready for the next beach day.

Book your appointment with Maude for curl care, summer styling advice or a routine that keeps your curls soft in warm weather.

The KURO summer hair routine

The best summer hair routines are not complicated. They are consistent. Protect your hair before sun, sea, heat and humidity. Rinse after swimming. Add hydration with a serum, oil, conditioner or mask. And instead of fighting the weather, work with it.

A sleek bun with a mask in the hair. Soft waves with natural texture. Air-dried curls with the right amount of moisture. These are the kinds of small summer hair rituals that make your hair feel easier, healthier and more polished without overstyling it.
