Top 5 Summer Hair Styling Products from Aurelio Salon & Spa in Howell, NJ

Summer weather can be tough on hair. Humidity, perspiration, rain, and heat waves all work against your style. The good news is that the right professional products make a real difference. Our stylists at Aurelio Salon & Spa in Howell, NJ put together their top picks for surviving — and thriving — through summer with great hair. Here are five professional styling products our team reaches for all season long.

#1 Sea Salt Spray

When our stylists were asked about their favorite summer hair product, sea salt spray came up time and again. It’s no surprise — everyone loves that effortless, just-came-from-the-beach look, and here in Monmouth County, plenty of people actually are coming from the beach. What makes a professional sea salt spray special is the difference it creates between tastefully styled beachy waves and unmanageable frizz.

Sea salt spray works on virtually every hair type. Curly hair benefits from the added texture and volume. Straight hair gets grit and movement it doesn’t naturally have. Short hair can achieve pieced, edgy definition. And for wavy hair, it can truly go above and beyond. Sea salt spray is also more versatile than many people realize — it can be used before a blowout on fine hair to add bulk and improve control, not just for air-drying. Pair it with a blow dry spray for a winning combination all summer.

#2 Quick Blow Dry Spray

A professional blow dry spray is a must-have for anyone who blow dries their hair — which is most people. The right formula can cut drying time significantly, which is especially valuable for guests with longer hair. Heat protection and conditioning agents work together to deliver soft, protected, and faster-styled results. Less time under the dryer means less heat exposure and healthier hair over time. It’s one of those products that quietly does a lot of work every single day.

#3 Wave Foam

Wave foam is a summer favorite for our curly-haired guests. Blow-drying curly hair straight takes time and effort — and in summer humidity, it’s an even bigger challenge. A professional wave foam applied to damp hair can be air-dried for a natural, relaxed texture, or diffused for a fuller, more defined look. Either way, it works with the hair’s natural curl pattern rather than against it. Many formulas also include conditioning agents that help soften and hydrate curly hair throughout the styling process.

Pair wave foam with a professional curl perfecting lotion for even better results. A good perfecting lotion wraps around the natural curl and eliminates frizz — letting the curl do exactly what it’s designed to do.

#4 Anti-Humidity Seal

Humidity is the enemy of a good blowout, and in New Jersey summers, it’s unavoidable. A professional anti-humidity seal provides a lightweight protective barrier against moisture in the air, keeping styles smooth and polished even when the weather is working against you. A light mist applied over a finished style can extend the life of a blowout, smooth out beachy waves for an evening look, and add shine without heaviness. For guests heading out by the water or dealing with rainy-day appointments, this product is indispensable.

#5 Dry Touch-Up Spray

A dry touch-up spray might be the most underrated product of summer. One of the most common warm-weather hair issues is dryness and stress at the ends — caused by sun exposure, heat styling, salt water, and wind. At the same time, scalps can become oilier, which leads many people to wash their hair more frequently. That increased washing removes natural oils from the ends at a time when they need protection most. A professional dry touch-up spray addresses this directly: it adds shine, detangles, and conditions the ends without adding weight or greasiness. Keep one in your bag all summer and your ends will be in far better shape come fall.
