Post-holiday blues? These 4 restorative treatments will help you ease back into reality

19 August 2019 by Beth Ryan

There are a few tried-and-tested ways to beat post-holiday blues. You could start planning your next trip (great procrastination). You could obsessively scroll through your camera roll (great content). Or, you could book yourself in for a treatment, relax, and maybe even prolong that tan you’ve worked so hard on.

  • 1 Refresh your colour

    The sun is notorious for bleaching hair; whether natural or coloured, your hair can lift by more than two shades making it look flat and brassy (why is it the ones you love that hurt you the most?). A colour-refresh will help to brighten UV-dulled tresses, while a toner will neutralise any unwanted brassiness.

  • 2 Prolong your tan

    One good thing about being home? Smugly showing off your holiday glow. A body wrap provides intense nourishment to the whole body, crucial for helping to prolong your tan for as long as possible. Make sure you lightly exfoliate beforehand to help the oils penetrate the skin – this will also ensure your tan fades evenly.

  • 3 Hydrate your hair

    When we dream of beachy hair, it’s all sun-kissed tones and beachy waves  – not the brittle, salt-saturated, slightly-green-from-the-chlorine reality that a lot of us face. Despite being good for the soul, those poolside days aren’t so good for your hair. Add much-needed moisture with a hydrating treatment, like Olaplex, and save those split ends.

  • 4 Get some sleep

    Feeling like you left your body-clock on holiday (along with your sunglasses)? The combination of jet lag and being back at work can affect your sleeping pattern. A relaxing massage will help you unwind, or try an aromatherapy massage – the lavender oil used can encourage deeper sleep.

    With Treatwell, you can book beauty online at all your favourite salons – simple, hassle-free, and you can do it on the go. Discover amazing salons in your area.
