Summer in Campbell River means long beach days, camping trips, and endless sunshine—but all that fun can leave your hair looking a little dull, brassy, or dry. As we head into fall, now is the perfect time to refresh your colour, repair any summer damage, and get ready for the busiest months of the year.

At Envy Beauty Den in Campbell River, we’re all about creating hair that’s not only beautiful but easy to maintain. You can feel confident whether you’re heading back to work, school drop-offs, or planning ahead for holiday gatherings.

Why Fall is the Best Time for a Colour Refresh

Sun exposure, salt water, and chlorine can all fade your colour faster. This can leave blondes looking brassy and brunettes washed out. A fall colour appointment is the perfect way to:

Rebalance your tone – Restore depth, richness, or brightness.
Add dimension – Subtle highlights or lowlights create a soft, lived-in look.
Boost shine – Refresh with a gloss treatment for mirror-like radiance.
Protect your hair – Prevent winter dryness before it sets in.

Treatment Suggestions for Post-Summer Hair

To get your hair looking and feeling its best, we recommend pairing your colour service with one of our nourishing in-salon treatments:

Davines OI Hydrating Treatment – Adds instant shine, softness, and manageability. Perfect for anyone with dry, frizz-prone hair.
Keune Keratin Smoothing Treatment – Tames frizz and smooths the cuticle while adding strength to sun-weakened strands.
Deep Conditioning Masks – Lock in moisture and prolong your colour vibrancy.

Your stylist can recommend the perfect treatment based on your hair type, whether you’re blonde, brunette, or rocking extensions.

Extension & Colour Care for Fall

If you wear Invisible Bead Extensions®, fall is also a great time to book a move-up with a colour refresh. Blending your extensions with your natural hair ensures a seamless finish. Treatments keep both your hair and extensions soft, shiny, and tangle-free.

The Importance of Hair Care

Maintaining healthy hair is essential, especially after the summer months. The sun, salt, and chlorine can take a toll on your locks. Regular treatments and a good hair care routine can make a significant difference.

Daily Hair Care Tips

Use a Sulfate-Free Shampoo: This helps retain moisture and color.
Condition Regularly: Deep conditioning treatments can restore hydration.
Limit Heat Styling: Try to air dry your hair whenever possible.
Protect from UV Rays: Use hair products with UV protection when spending time outdoors.

Seasonal Changes and Hair Health

As the seasons change, so do the needs of your hair. In fall, you may notice that your hair becomes drier. This is due to the cooler air and indoor heating. Adjust your hair care routine accordingly to keep it healthy and vibrant.
