The summer hair care step everyone forgets
When we think of summer hair care, most of us focus on protecting strands from sun damage, controlling frizz, or fighting colour fade. But there’s one essential step that even the most dedicated beauty lovers overlook: scalp care.
At Pastels Salon, a leading beauty salon in Dubai, we remind our clients that healthy hair begins with a healthy scalp. Just like the skin on your face, your scalp needs extra attention during the summer months.
This blog will highlight why scalp health is essential for beautiful hair, especially in Dubai’s intense summer climate.
We'll explore how product buildup, SPF residue, and dehydration can affect both the scalp and hair while sharing expert solutions from our signature in-salon scalp facials and detox rituals to targeted Kérastase treatments and at-home care with salon-grade hair products.
The summer hair step you can’t skip
Here in Dubai, summer means intense heat, humidity, and endless hours spent outdoors at the beach, by the pool, or simply getting through daily life.
While we never forget to apply SPF to our faces and bodies, our scalps are often neglected.
Here’s what it faces in summer:
Sweat, oil, and dirt buildup: Sweat can mix with sebum and pollution particles, clogging follicles and leading to greasy roots, flakiness, or even hair shedding.
SPF residue: Sunscreens along the hairline protect your skin, but they can leave behind residue that blocks follicles and causes irritation.
Dehydration: The sun rays and air conditioning strip moisture from your scalp, leading to dryness, tightness, and discomfort.
Weakened hair at the root
A stressed scalp means fragile roots and dull strands that are more prone to breakage.
The Pastels' solution:
At Pastels Salon, advanced scalp care is a necessity, especially during the summer. That’s why we offer a range of in-salon scalp detox treatments that work at the root to reset and revitalise.
Scalp facials: These treatments combine gentle exfoliation and massage to remove buildup, boost circulation, and create the ideal environment for healthy hair growth.
Backwash detox rituals: Our deeply cleansing scalp washes leave you feeling refreshed while restoring balance to both scalp and hair.
Kérastase Fusio-Scrub and Fusio-Dose rituals: This service uses gentle yet effective exfoliating scrubs and concentrated serums to detoxify, hydrate, and strengthen.
The result will leave you with a scalp that feels clean and comfortable, and hair that shines with vitality.
Why Kérastase is the gold standard for scalp wellness
At Pastels, we choose Kérastase because it gives real, visible results, with formulas designed to target every scalp problem.
Whether your hair feels dry, sensitive, oily, or out of balance, there’s a Kérastase solution that can help restore its health.
Our stylists will personalise your treatment, which may include:
Kérastase Fusio-Scrub: A sensorial scalp exfoliation that removes impurities and product buildup while enhancing microcirculation.
Targeted Kérastase serums: These serums are lightweight yet powerful, working deep into the scalp to soothe, hydrate, regulate oil production, and restore balance without weighing hair down.
Salon-grade hair products for home care: Our experts will recommend the perfect combination of cleansers, scrubs, and serums to maintain your scalp’s health long after you leave the salon.
