Seasonal hair refresh: from summer glow to autumn glam

As the summer sun fades into the crisper and cooler season of autumn, it’s not just your wardrobe that needs a refresh – your hair also needs seasonal adjustments. The changing weather and climate impact the health and appearance of your hair. From fluctuating humidity levels to saying goodbye to sun-kissed highlights, autumn brings its own set of challenges when it comes to hair care and style.


Show your hair some love

After a summer of sun, saltwater, and chlorine, your hair may be in desperate need of some TLC. Friends + Co hairdressers assess your hair’s condition and identify the best way to remedy, rejuvenate and prep it for the new season ahead – we don’t just want short term successes, we want long lasting beautiful healthy hair.


Hello frizzy hair

 Whatever your hair type, you can fall prey to frizzy and flyaways – it does not discriminate! The main cause of frizz is the lack of moisture in your locks; it absorbs moisture from the air to try and address the problem. To combat dryness and keep your hair smooth and manageable, hydration is key. Friends + Co offer an extensive range of luxury hair care treatments designed to restore moisture, repair damage, and revitalise your locks.


Ditch the split

Split ends are also prone to frizz and unfortunately, the longer you leave them, the worse they’ll get. Regular trims stop split ends in their tracks and help to keep your hair naturally radiant.


Make seasonal adjustment to your hairstyle and routine

 The shift in weather patterns also impacts hair styling ability, it certainly becomes more of a challenge to do some styles. Opting for hairstyles that are less reliant on heat styling is one solution, but it is also the perfect opportunity to experiment with a completely new hair cut to embrace and exploit your hair’s natural texture and movement. Friends + Co have specialist curly hair hairdressers in our Christchurch city hair salon, so every hair type looks sensational.


Experiment with richer and warmer tones

You may be saying farewell to summer’s golden tones, but now is the time to embrace the rich tones and colours of autumn. Whether you are seeking a subtle transformation or a bold statement, the creatives at our city hair salon are here to guide you. The Balayage technique  is incredibly versatile and not exclusively for going lighter. It also seamlessly blends darker shades into your hair to create depth, dimension (and perhaps even drama) – absolutely stunning.

Whether you have curly locks needing expert care, need a colour touch-up and styling, or have no idea what you want, our creative team is ready to explore the possibilities and bring your autumn hair to life leaving you looking and feeling fabulous.
