We dream about summer hair all throughout the year; salty (or sweet) beach waves, relaxed updos and golden blonde tones. What feels fresher than getting your hair done just before you jet away?!
The preparation is always fun, and we’re sure you’ve already remembered to pack your sunscreen. But what about protection for your hair? We all know how important it is to protect your skin from the sun, but it’s so easy to forget about our precious locks.
We harp on about spending extra time moisturizing our strands during the winter but summer can have just as much of an effect on our hair. Spending too much time in the sun without wearing a hat or UV protection can potentially lead to damage to the structure and color of the hair.
Signs to look out for include dry, brittle, porous hair, and possibly breakage.
We don’t want that dah-lings! We’ve got your backs though (or shall we say hair!). N4 has a select few premium products that include UV protection. We’ve rounded them up and have let you know how you can use them for the dreamiest summer strands.
Fluoro5 Elixer Restore & Repair Oil: For UV Protection & Smooth, Shiny Locks
If you’re looking for that number one summer hair essential, it’s always going to be N4s Fluoro5 Elixer Restore & Repair Oil. If hair care was fashion, this little staple would be the hottest and trendiest product of the season.
N4 highly recommends this fabulous hair oil because it’s extremely lightweight which is perfect during the hot weather! You simply only use 1-2 pumps and your strands are illuminated with a time-defying shine, as well as UV and humidity protection.
Take this little bottle of magic liquid wherever you go as it’s handbag friendly, and use it to seal, finish, repair and restore any finished look. Say bye-bye to bad hair days as you’ll have smooth and dazzling results in seconds.
Firm Hold Gel: For Controlled Kept-Back Hair
What’s better than finding a product that achieves style, body, control and shine, whilst keeping everything flexible and color protected from the UV rays?!

This is my holy grail shampoo! The scent is heavenly, and it leaves my hair hydrated but not limp or oily. I believe this product helps keep my highlighted and heat-styled hair looking its absolute best.

I purchased this shampoo thru my salon where I have my hair colored. Initially, upon the first use, my hair felt tangled and stiff. Once I applied the conditioner, it helped, but no shampoo should make your hair feel tangled and rough. The conditioner is great, but the shampoo was not good for my fine color treated hair at all. What a disappointment.

This shampoo is perfect for my colored curly and frizzy hair. Leaves no residue and makes my hair fresh and clean and brings out the true beauty of my hair. I will never stop buying it.

I have been a loyal fan of Number 4 Hydrating Shampoo for years; however, the last bottle I received was totally different from the previous bottle. The product was brown, did not lather at all, and left my hair lank after washing. I will not be buying any more of this brand.

The texture, scent & cleansing w/out stripping my purple color off is sensational. I thought I’d never find a pro product (I am licensed managing cosmetologist) that would meet or exceed all my requirements. It’s luxurious feel & color of the shampoo to begin with is a zen-like experience. Once you get that nectar on your hair & start to shampoo? Heavenly scent of patchouli fills your shower. It leaves hair hydrated & moist. It actually does what it professes to do, unlike so many other products. I adore Number 4! Psst- your man will always want to smell you, wondering what that new scent is that you are wearing!

I got a sample of this in my Birchbox and it is absolutely the most amazing shampoo I’ve ever used! My hair is normally dry and damaged from the blow dryer and curling iron and this shampoo completely transformed it! It’s so soft and I hardly get split ends now. Definitely going to keep buying it 🙂

This shampoo is an absolute DREAM! Super concentrated, a little bit really does go a long way, but it really gets the job done. My tresses are silky and my frizz is greatly minimized. It also smells delightful. Do yourself a favor!

Love love love this. My hair was so soft and feels so healthy!!! Oh and it smells sooo yummy. I have curly hair and fight with hydration issues. With this I no longer fight. Thanks.

I love this line! All of the lines smell great but the Hydrate one is my favorite. This one smells like honeysuckle and I get whiffs of it throughout the day when I use it. A little goes a long way!

This shampoo has saved my life. Well, technically it saved my hair, but since my hair is a huge part of my life… you get the gist. I have naturally curly hair that easily falls flat and goes frizzy. I have received so many compliments since my hairdresser introduced me to No. 4. and all I have to do is wash and go–no fuss and my hair looks amazing and feels amazingly soft.
Mega hydrated! I love this stuff and you will, too!!

I love the way this makes my hair feel. The scent is unique and initially strong and off putting, but when I felt how my hair felt I was sold!Super silky and I don’t feel like I “Need” a conditioner when using this. Excellent!

Perfect! I got a sample of both the hydrating shampoo and conditioner in my June Birchbox. Being a cosmetology student who’s currently trying like crazy to grow my hair out, I’m pretty picky about what I’ll put on my head. I decided to give this shampoo a shot and I’m hooked! Seriously, my usually frizzy hair has never felt so clean and soft, it’s even tamed my wiry, damaged ends from bleaching!

OMG. You must try this product! No disappointment will be had! Well worth the cost. Promise. Must follow-up with conditioner.
