FAQs about hair sun protection
1. Why should you protect your hair from the sun?
- Just like your skin, your hair can be damaged by prolonged sun exposure. UV rays can dry out your hair, cause colour fading, and weaken the hair shaft, leading to breakage and frizz. Protecting your hair helps maintain its health, shine, and colour.
2. How can you protect your hair from sun damage?
- You can protect your hair by wearing a hat or scarf when you're outdoors, especially during peak sun hours. Using hair products with UV protection, such as leave-in conditioners or sprays, can also create a barrier against the sun's harmful rays.
3. What type of hair products should you look for to protect your hair from the sun?
- Look for products that specifically state they offer UV protection. Leave-in conditioners, hair sprays, and serums containing ingredients like UV filters or antioxidants are beneficial. Products that contain natural oils, like coconut or argan oil, can also add a protective layer. A wide-brimmed hat or cap works too.
4. Can your hair colour be affected by sun exposure?
- Yes, sun exposure can definitely affect your hair colour. UV rays can cause oxidation, which leads to fading, particularly in coloured or highlighted hair. Blonde and red hair are especially susceptible to colour changes from the sun.
5. What is the best sun protection for hair?
- This depends on a range of factors, including longevity, waterproof capabilities, and UVA/UVB protection. Browse our entire collection to find an option that your hair (and scalp) will love.
