When it comes to maintaining healthy, vibrant hair, heat protection isn’t optional—it’s a must. Whether it’s the UV rays from the sun or the constant styling with flat irons and curling wands, your hair takes a serious beating without the proper defense. At Revamp Salon Company, your go-to Saskatoon Salon, we’re here to break down why protecting your hair from heat is key, how it affects your color, and which L’ANZA products we swear by for year-round defense.
Heat + UV Rays = Faded Color
If you’ve ever noticed your color looking dull or brassy after a summer vacation, UV exposure is the culprit. Just like your skin needs SPF, your hair does too! Prolonged sun exposure weakens the hair shaft and causes your gorgeous salon color to fade faster—especially for blondes and vivid tones.
That’s where heat protection steps in. By using the right products, you’re essentially creating a shield that locks in color and prevents UV rays from stripping it away. This is why our team at Revamp Salon Company in Saskatoon recommends applying a heat protectant every time you step out, whether it’s a beach day or just running errands.
Styling Tools + Unprotected Hair = Breakage
Now, let’s talk about your hot tools. We love a good blowout as much as anyone, but flat irons, curling wands, and even your everyday blow dryer can hit temps up to 450°F! Without heat protection, that’s a fast track to dryness, breakage, and split ends.
Using products like L’ANZA Healing Style Thermal Defense Spray is a game-changer. This lightweight mist defends against heat up to 500°F, adds shine, and prevents color from dulling. Bonus: it won’t weigh your hair down, making it a perfect match for all hair types.

Consistent use will keep your color fresh, your strands healthy, and your style on point.
