How to Protect Your Hair and Nails as the Days Get Warmer!

An individual with beautifully coloured hair sits on a beach bench, gazing towards the sun. The sea extends to the horizon, forming a serene backdrop that mirrors their vibrant hairstyle, expertly crafted by skilled hairdressers.
As the days grow longer and the sunshine becomes a more regular guest, it’s time to rethink your beauty routine. While we all love basking in the warmth, the combination of heat, UV exposure, and humidity can take a toll on your hair and nails. At Macadamia Hair Spa in Widnes, we’re here to help you keep your locks and nails in top condition all summer long. Here’s what to watch out for and how to stay ahead of spring's sunny stressors.

How Spring Weather Affects Your Hair

Just like your skin, your hair is vulnerable to environmental changes. As the seasons shift, your hair may experience dryness, increased frizz, or colour fading. To keep your hair looking its best:

  • Use UV Protection – Even in spring, UV exposure can weaken hair structure and cause fading. Apply a leave-in conditioner with UV protection to keep your hair strong.

  • Wear a Hat or Scarf – A stylish hat or scarf adds flair to your outfit while protecting your hair from unexpected temperature shifts and wind.

  • Keep Hair Hydrated – Use hydrating shampoos and conditioners to prevent dryness and maintain softness as the air warms up.

  • Limit Heat Styling – With milder temperatures, it’s a great time to embrace natural waves or try heat-free styling methods.

 

How to Keep Your Scalp Healthy in Changing Weather

Spring weather brings more humidity and temperature fluctuations, which can affect your scalp. Keep your scalp fresh and balanced by:

  • Washing Regularly – Use a clarifying shampoo once a week to remove excess sweat and product buildup.

  • Using Dry Shampoo – A quick spritz of dry shampoo absorbs oil and keeps your hair feeling clean between washes.

  • Drinking More Water – Staying hydrated helps keep your scalp and hair nourished from within.

 

Nail Care Tips for Spring

Your nails also go through seasonal changes. Dryness from winter can linger, while increased moisture in the air can lead to brittle or peeling nails. Protect them with these simple steps:

  • Moisturise Daily – Apply cuticle oil and hand cream to prevent nails from becoming brittle or dry.

  • Apply Suncream to Hands – Hands are prone to sun damage, so don’t forget to apply SPF to keep them youthful.

  • Protect Nails from Seasonal Changes – Fluctuating temperatures can make nails more fragile. A strengthening treatment or a professional gel manicure at Macadamia Hair Spa can help protect them.

  • Choose Fresh, Seasonal Shades – Spring is the perfect time to experiment with pastel and floral-inspired colours to complement the season.
