Summer in Chicago is unmatched: sun-drenched weekends, lakefront living, and rooftop season in full swing. But while you’re soaking up every moment, your hair is battling UV rays, humidity, chlorine, and saltwater.
At Charles Ifergan, Chicago’s best hair salon, we believe effortless summer hair starts with expert-level care—and conditioning is the non-negotiable your strands have been waiting for.
Whether you’re a city-dweller strolling Oak Street or a lakefront sun-seeker, here’s your definitive guide to keeping your hair healthy, hydrated, and gorgeous all summer long.
Even if your skin thrives in the summer sun, your hair likely tells another story. Exposure to UV rays, chlorine, saltwater, and humidity can cause serious damage:
At Charles Ifergan, we treat your hair like the luxury it is, with expert care and salon-exclusive treatments that restore, hydrate, and protect.
If your hair feels dry, frizzy, or unmanageable, it’s likely crying out for moisture. Deep conditioning treatments restore what the summer steals: hydration, strength, and shine.
At all Charles Ifergan locations, we offer custom deep conditioning treatments tailored to your unique hair type, color, and lifestyle. Whether you’re blonde, brunette, curly, or straight, our Stylists will select the right formula to replenish moisture and rebuild your hair’s strength.
