The Getaway Made Easy: Your Summer Packing List
You can tell a lot about someone by looking at what they decide to pack. Unlike taking a peek in their beauty cabinet, seeing what someone willingly decides to haul with them for a long weekend away—or around the globe—is telling about what they can’t live without. And when it comes to choices about the necessities that make the cut, these hair products are continually at the top of everyone’s lists when it comes to summer travel.
Summer Travel Must-Have Hair Products
The hair products you take with you on holiday are all a choice. And with limited space, you want to make the right one.
The Bare Necessities
Travel-Size Shampoo + Conditioner:
This is one many of us like to skip to save space and rely on what’s at the hotel. But, learning from experience, this is one step you can’t afford to miss, and that can really make all the difference when it comes to your holiday hairstyle.
You’d be surprised how much a travel-size WASH + RINSE makes a difference in your routine. From caring for colour to adding repair and moisture, this is one necessity that sets your style up for success by starting on the right foot.
The Leave-In:
From detangling to adding heat protection and shine, the leave-in is the holy grail of must-haves on holiday, especially if you opt out of taking your own WASH + RINSE. You can choose from a variety of options based on your hair type and needs—but all in all, a great leave-in like STAYING.ALIVE or UN.TANGLED helps add moisture, cut down on frizz, combat heat and UV damage and lead to softer, shinier, more manageable hair.
A Multi-tasking Serum:
Serums are a great product to have on hand during holidays because it's a concentrated formula that can do everything from protecting against heat to adding shine and definition and improving hydration and moisture. If you want night-and-day protection, consider packing NIGHT.SHIFT + YOUNG.AGAIN.
NIGHT.SHIFT is an overnight serum that ensures you wake with easier to manage hair that’s hydrated, strengthened and manageable while YOUNG.AGAIN is an easy choice that goes on damp or dry for heat protection up to 450°F / 230°C, added shine and condition.
Stylers:
When you’re on holiday, you want your style to be versatile but also easy to create. For this reason, reaching for something to use when air-drying, like KILLER.WAVES or KILLER.TWIRLS or something to enhance movement, hold and finish like HAIR.RESORT.SPRAY or SHIMMER.SHINE are ideal. Not only will they help refine your shape, but they’ll add nourishment while doing so.
Dry Shampoo + Dry Conditioner:
No matter where you’re heading, being able to extend the life of your style is priceless. It saves you time, water and precious time on holiday so you can spend more time in the sunshine. Plus, when you pair a dry conditioner like YOUNG.AGAIN DRY CONDITIONER with a dry shampoo like FRESH.HAIR, you’re able to combat oil while refreshing moisture for a refreshed feeling from scalp to ends.
Whether you’re looking for travel sizes or are checking a bag with full sizes, there are plenty of amazing formulas to choose from for your next holiday. Need help deciding? Try our Product Matchmaker Quiz for personalised results.
