Planning a little spring escape or looking ahead to your summer holiday? Whether you’re jetting off to the sun or staying closer to home, now’s the perfect time to start thinking about your hair. At Macadamia Hair Spa in Widnes, we’re all about making sure your holiday hair is effortless, glossy, and totally photo-ready. Here’s how to prep in advance and avoid any last-minute styling stress.

Book a Pre-Holiday Trim

Sun, sea, and sand are all glorious—but they can be tough on the ends of your hair. Booking a trim before you go helps get rid of split ends and gives your hair a healthier head start. A tidy cut also means your style will hold better for longer, even in humid weather.

 

Consider a Gloss or Colour Refresh

Want that fresh, sun-kissed glow without relying on actual sun damage? A colour gloss or subtle highlight refresh can brighten your look and add shine. If you colour your hair regularly, aim to book in at least a week or two before you fly, giving your hair time to settle before any chlorine or UV exposure.

 

Treat Your Hair Before You Go

A deep-conditioning treatment at Macadamia Hair Spa is the perfect way to lock in moisture and boost your hair’s resilience. We’ll recommend the best one for your hair type—especially if you’re prone to frizz, dryness or colour fade.

 

Keep Your Scalp Happy

Warmer weather and travel can sometimes lead to an irritated or oily scalp. Booking in for a scalp detox or clarifying treatment helps balance things out before the shift in climate, particularly if you’re heading somewhere hot.

 

Go Low-Maintenance with a Sleek Style

If you’re not into styling your hair daily on holiday, ask us about lower-maintenance options. A smoothing treatment, boho waves, or a tidy bob can be ideal for that “get up and go” feel. We’ll help you choose something easy to manage, but still gorgeously polished.

 

Don’t Forget Holiday Hair Products!

Ask in-salon for travel-size hair care that protects against UV and chlorine. We’ve got everything from leave-in conditioners to anti-frizz creams that won’t weigh down your beach bag—but will keep your hair in top shape.
