Life on this side of Dubai happens close to the water. The morning air off the sea is damp, an afternoon might mean laps in the building pool or a swim off the beach at JBR, and the evening often ends with a walk along the waterfront. It is a lovely way to live, and it is hard work for your hair: humidity brings back frizz, salt and sun dry the lengths, and chlorine wears a smoothing treatment down faster than it should.

Smooth hair and a waterfront routine can go together, as long as the treatment and the aftercare fit the way you actually spend your week. Below we explain what sea air, salt, chlorine and sun do to treated hair, how to swim without washing your keratin away, and which treatment our ladies-only specialists usually suggest for women who are in the water every few days.

Hair by the sea

Sea air, salt, chlorine and sun: what waterfront life does to your hair

Four everyday things on the coast affect hair in different ways, so each one needs its own answer.

What you meetWhat it does to hairWhat helps
Humid sea airDry or porous hair pulls moisture from the air and swells, so a neat blow-dry turns fuzzy by lunchtimeKeratin to seal the cuticle flat; blow-dry rather than air-dry on humid days; a light serum on the ends
Salt waterDries the lengths and is one of the fastest ways to fade a keratin treatmentFresh water and a leave-in conditioner before you swim, and a fresh-water rinse straight after
Pool chlorineShortens the life of any smoothing treatment and leaves hair roughThe same swim routine, then a wash with sulfate-free shampoo
Strong sunTakes moisture out and, together with swimming, slowly wears away the protein hair is made ofA protein treatment for strength; a monthly Signature Hair Spa for moisture

None of this means choosing between the sea and smooth hair. Frizz from humidity is about the cuticle, while salt, chlorine and sun are about dryness and strength, so the right plan often combines a smoothing treatment with a few simple habits. Our anti-frizz treatment guide explains the causes of frizz in more detail.

Swimming and smooth hair

Swimming after a keratin treatment or Brazilian Blowout

This is the question clients on the coast ask most, and the answer depends on how recent your treatment is.

The first week after keratin: stay out of the water

We suggest avoiding the pool and the sea for at least the first week after a keratin treatment. Your specialist will tell you what suits your hair and the formula used, including when your first wash can be – usually after 48 – 72 hours. Until then your hair stays dry, loose and untied, so save beach days for the following week.

After a Brazilian Blowout

There is no waiting time: you can wash your hair, exercise and tie it up the same day. That freedom is why the Brazilian Blowout suits women who cannot keep their hair dry for days. Ask your specialist when to return to the pool, and use Brazilian Blowout aftercare to help results last 10 – 12 weeks.

Your swim routine once the first week is over

Follow these steps every time you swim, in the sea or the pool, to protect any smoothing treatment.

  1. Before you get in

    Wet your hair with fresh water and comb through a leave-in conditioner. Hair that is already full of fresh water takes in less salt or chlorine.

  2. In the water

    Wear a swimming cap, or tie your hair in a loose braid to keep the lengths together.

  3. Straight after

    Rinse with fresh water as soon as you get out, rather than letting salt or chlorine dry on your hair.

  4. At home

    Wash with a sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner in lukewarm water, then blow-dry smooth with a heat protectant.

  5. The rest of the week

    Wash only two or three times a week and sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase.

The full first-week plan, with what to avoid day by day, is in our keratin aftercare guide.

Choosing your treatment

Which hair treatment in Dubai Marina suits beach and pool lovers?

Start with two questions: how often are you in the water, and do you want sleek and straight or smooth with movement?

Keep your waves with a Brazilian Blowout

If you love the sea and also love your natural waves, the Brazilian Blowout removes frizz without flattening your hair, so it dries soft and defined after a swim and blows out sleek when you want it. Results are cumulative: the more often you have it, the healthier your hair will be.

Coloured or highlighted hair in the sun

Lighter, coloured hair often feels the sun and the pool first. Protein puts back strength while it smooths, and Olaplex repairs broken bonds in coloured or damaged hair from AED 265. Colour before your smoothing treatment, or wait about two weeks after it.

Frequently asked questions

How much is keratin treatment in Dubai Marina?

A Brazilian keratin treatment in Dubai Marina, JBR, JLT and Palm Jumeirah costs AED 420 for short hair, AED 575 for medium, AED 740 for long and AED 895 for very long hair, VAT included. It is the same price list we use across Dubai. The appointment takes 2 to 4 hours and results last up to 6 months.

Can I swim after keratin in JBR?

Yes, but not straight away. We suggest avoiding pools and the sea for at least the first week after a keratin treatment, and your specialist will advise on your own hair. After that, wet your hair with fresh water and apply a leave-in conditioner before you swim, wear a cap or a loose braid, and rinse with fresh water straight after.

Is a Brazilian Blowout better for beach and pool lovers?

For many women who are in the water every week, yes. The original Brazilian Blowout takes as little as 80 minutes, lasts up to 12 weeks and has no waiting time, so you can wash your hair, exercise and wear a ponytail the same day. Keratin lasts longer, up to 6 months, but needs 48 to 72 hours before the first wash. Ask your specialist when you can go back in the pool.

How long does keratin last with sea water and chlorine?

Keratin lasts up to 6 months, usually 3 to 6. Salt water and chlorine are two of the fastest ways to fade it, so regular swimmers may see results soften sooner. Rinsing with fresh water after every swim, washing with sulfate-free shampoo and washing only two or three times a week help it last.

Do you do protein treatment in Dubai Marina and JLT?

Yes. A protein hair treatment costs from AED 475 for short hair to AED 950 for very long hair, takes 2 to 3 hours and lasts 3 to 5 months. It suits hair that feels rough, weak or stretchy after sun, sea and pool days. A root protein touch-up for new regrowth is AED 330.

Should I have keratin before a beach holiday?

Give yourself time. Because pools and the sea are best avoided for at least the first week after keratin, book it well before you travel. If your trip starts within a few days, a Brazilian Blowout is the more practical choice, as you can wash your hair the same day. Colour your hair before either treatment, or wait about two weeks after it.
