Desperately Seeking...
Weightless Moisture
Moroccanoil
This super-luxe formula won't build up or weigh hair down while it restores shine and softness to every hair type. It'll heal your chlorine- and color-fried locks, plus protect them from further damage - and it reduces blow-dry time by 40 percent (seriously, we've tried it). Say "goodbye" to brittle, dull, broken, sad summer hair and dry scalp! Plus, one bottle will last you well
into winter.

Locks
L'Oreal Professionnel Paris Solar Sublime UV Protect line
Summer hair starts with basic haircare.
The simple three-step solution for summer strands includes a conditioning (but not greasy) pre-exposure spray that leaves hair protected, naturally nourished, soft and shiny; a deliciously-rich after-sun shampoo that gently removes salt and chlorine; and the already-coveted after-sun nourishing balm.

"Wash and Go" Summer
Hair
Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray
Spray this salty concoction on damp or dry hair, hop in the car (put the windows down for extra "beach" authenticity) and you're done. Fab for all hair types, especially those of us with a little wave. No matter the method, the result is more texture, increased volume and a matte finish. "This is great for that beachy, sexy look," says Shannon Rha, owner and stylist at Shannon Hair.

End to Chlorine and Mineral Deposits
Enjoy Clarifying Spray
This one-of-a-kind spray-in clarifying formula is designed to remove mineral deposits, product build-up, chlorine and other impurities. "It really keeps the 'green' out," says Susie Beck of Entourage, "and it's safe for kids, as well as every hair type - including colored hair." For best results, apply to wet hair, work through (don't rinse!), then wash with a sulfate-free shampoo (you can rinse now!).
