Let’s face it—summer hair can be tricky. Between sun, saltwater, pool chlorine, and all that glorious heat, your strands are probably begging for a little extra TLC. I’ve been on the hunt for a routine that delivers soft, shiny, stress-free hair all summer long—and I found it.
Thanks to Color Wow, I’ve found my cheat sheet for summer hair perfection. These products are easy to use, incredibly effective, and make it almost too simple to step out with flawless hair, even on the laziest, most humid days. If you’re into healthy shine, smooth strands, and low-maintenance styling (who isn’t?), these are about to become your new BFFs.
Dream Cocktail Coconut-Infused Leave-In Treatment
This is hydration heaven in a bottle. I use Dream Cocktail Coconut-Infused Leave-In Treatment right after towel drying my hair, working it through from mid-length to ends, and then I use my blow dryer to activate the treatment. It’s super lightweight and smells like summer in the best way.
My hair drinks this up—it instantly feels softer, looks smoother, and has that silky finish I crave after a long beach day or chlorine dip. It’s especially great if you’ve been battling dryness or dullness. I love how moisturized and glossy my hair looks without feeling greasy or heavy.
Extra Strength Dream Coat
If you’re only grabbing one Color Wow product, let it be this one. Extra Strength Dream Coat is the ultimate anti-frizz weapon. It’s activated by heat, so I spritz it on damp hair before blow drying. The result? Shiny, humidity-resistant, frizz-free hair that lasts up to three shampoos. Yes, really.
I noticed an immediate difference the first time I used it—my hair was sleek, smooth, and had that glassy shine you usually only see in magazines. It’s a game-changer for fighting the summer fuzz and keeping styles intact, no matter how hot or sticky it gets outside.
XTRA Large Bombshell Volumizer
On days when I don’t feel like picking up a blow dryer (most summer days), I reach for XTRA Large Bombshell Volumizer. I smooth it into damp hair after swimming or showering, and then just let it air dry. It gives me that airy, lifted volume without any crunch or stiffness.
I’m obsessed with how it makes my hair look fuller and bouncier—even when I do literally nothing else. It’s the perfect no-fuss styling hack that makes lazy days look polished and intentional.
Pop & Lock High Gloss Finish
Think of Pop & Lock High Gloss Finish as the cherry on top of your hair routine. I smooth it over my finished look to seal in moisture, tame flyaways, and give my ends that glassy, healthy finish they sometimes lose in the summer heat.
My favorite trick? Running a bit through the ends when they’re looking dry or fried—it brings them right back to life. This product gives me that “fresh from the salon” vibe every time, and I love how shiny and silky it leaves my hair.
Style on Steroids
Last but not least, Style on Steroids gives me the hold and beachy texture I crave for summer styles. I use it to boost my natural waves or add grit and volume to braids and messy buns. It never feels crunchy or sticky—just that perfect undone texture that makes any look feel effortlessly cool.
It’s the easiest way to fake that “just stepped off the beach” hair without the salt and sand buildup. A few sprays and done.
