Summer in Houston is basically its own sport. Between the heat, the humidity, and the non-stop pool parties, your hair needs to be able to keep up — and look good doing it.
At Blondetourage Salon, summer is our Super Bowl. It's the season our clients walk in with saved Pinterest boards, pool-faded color, and a vision. And we are HERE for it.
Whether you're refreshing an existing blonde or finally taking the leap you've been thinking about since January, here's everything you need to know about getting your hair summer-ready in Houston.
The Services That Are Flying Off Our Books Right Now
Babylights — These are ultra-fine highlights woven throughout the hair to mimic the way the sun naturally lightens strands. The result is a soft, dimensional blonde that looks like you've been living on a boat in the Mediterranean. If you want that lived-in, effortless look without anything too dramatic, babylights are your best friend.
Balayage — A freehand painting technique where color is swept onto the hair in a way that grows out beautifully with zero harsh lines. Balayage is Houston's most requested service for a reason — low maintenance, high impact. Perfect if you want to look like you spend your weekends on Lake Conroe (and low-key, you do).
Full Highlights — For the girls who want all-over brightness and a seriously punchy blonde moment. Full highlights give you maximum light, maximum dimension, and maximum "wait, is your hair natural??" energy.
Partial Highlights + Face Frame — A budget-friendlier option that still delivers a ton of brightness. A face frame especially changes everything — it opens up your features and gives you that glowing, sun-kissed look every time you step outside.
Protect Your Color All Summer Long
Houston summers are brutal on color. The chlorine, saltwater, and sun exposure can fade your tone fast if you're not prepping properly. Here's our team's honest advice:
Use a color-safe, sulfate-free shampoo. We carry several options in the salon — ask your stylist what works for your specific color formula.
Deep condition regularly. Our luxury conditioning treatments are available as an add-on to any service and make a massive difference in color longevity.
Rinse your hair before getting in the pool. When your hair is already saturated with water, it absorbs less chlorine. Simple but effective.
