Heal Your Summer-Worn Hair: Treatments & Tips from Charles Ifergan

After months of sunshine, pool dips, and outdoor adventures, your hair may be showing signs of stress. Summer fun often comes with hidden damage, such as UV exposure, chlorine, saltwater, and heat, which can all leave your strands feeling dry, brittle, and dull. At Charles Ifergan, we specialize in repairing and reviving hair that’s been through it all. With our in-salon treatments and at-home care recommendations, you can restore shine, strength, and softness just in time for the new season.

How Summer Weather Damages Your Hair

Just like your skin, your hair feels the effects of the sun and elements:

The result? Hair that looks dull, tangles easily, and feels fragile. But the good news is that it’s never too late to repair and rejuvenate.

Professional Treatments at Charles Ifergan

Our salon offers targeted Condition & Repair Treatments designed to bring stressed hair back to life. These luxury treatments deeply replenish moisture, rebuild broken bonds, and smooth the cuticle for long-lasting results.

When you visit us, your stylist will assess your hair’s condition and customize the treatment that best suits your needs, whether it’s intense hydration, bond repair for chemically treated hair, or smoothing for frizz control.

Ifergan Expert Tip

Pair a deep repair treatment with a professional haircut or trim. This removes split ends while locking in hydration, leaving your hair instantly healthier and more manageable.

At-Home Healing Tips

Healthy hair is a partnership between salon treatments and proper care at home. Here’s how you can extend your results:

Hydrating Shampoo & Conditioner

Switch to a nourishing formula that gently cleanses while replenishing moisture.

Weekly Deep Mask

Treat yourself to a rich hair mask once a week to restore softness and shine.

Heat Protection Always

Apply a thermal protectant before blow-drying, curling, or straightening to prevent further damage.

Scalp Care

A healthy scalp leads to healthy hair. Use a lightweight scalp scrub or serum to encourage circulation and hair strength.

Limit Washing

Over-washing strips away natural oils. Aim for 2–3 times per week and use dry shampoo in between if needed.

Ifergan Expert Tip: Silk Pillowcase

Sleep on a silk pillowcase to reduce friction and help your hair retain moisture overnight.
