Dry hair is the number one issue we face come September. "Hair can't repair itself, we have to put back in what was taken out," Reitman says. If your hair feels dry and even crunchy, he recommends using an intense hydrating mask like Moroccan Oil Masque, $48.75 weekly. After shampooing, apply the mask. Step out of the shower and blast hair with a blow dryer set on medium heat to help the hair expand, allowing the product to penetrate the hair shaft. Once your hair is warm, let the mask set for another 10 minutes then rinse.

"Salt, sun and chlorine" are what Cutler says cause certain hair colors (mostly blondes and redheads) to turn brassy. In order to restore your hair color to its former glory, he recommends heading to the salon for a gloss or glaze treatment. They are less costly than getting full color and will restore the tone of your original hue while adding shine. Once your color is repaired, use color protecting shampoos and conditioners (try Pureology Hydrate Shampoo and Conditioner, $22.95 each) and always apply a UV blocking styling product before heading outdoors (try Kiehl's Leave-In Hair Conditioner, 29.50).

If your hair seems frizzier now then it did when summer started, Cutler recommends swapping your regular styling products for straightening cream (try Redken Straight 05 Straightening Balm, $12.99) -- even if you don't straighten your hair. They are designed to fill in the hair's cuticle so that it looks smoother (as in frizz free).

This may seem like a no-brainer, but many women complain that moisturizing conditioners weigh their hair down, so remember, if your hair is fine or tends to lay flat on top, only apply conditioning treatments from your mid shaft to your ends. "Generally hair isn't dry at the roots," Reitman says, so you can skip that area.

Cutler explains that swimmer's shampoos (like Kiehl's All Sport Swimmer's Cleansing Rinse for Hair and Body, $18) are designed to break down chlorine, which is great, but that they can be extremely drying to hair. Use a hydrating shampoo and conditioner (try Aveeno Nourish + Moisturize Shampoo and Conditioner, $6.49 each) on the days you don't use the swimmer's shampoo. If you swim regularly and have blonde hair, use a swimmer shampoo twice a week. If you're a brunette, you'll likely only need to use it once a week.
