Most people do not remember Hair sun protection when they are thinking of sun protection. If you are like most people, you spend most of the year looking forward to summer. But your hair does not. You may love the warm glow that your hair picks up in the summer, but even “natural” lightening from the sun is hard on your hair. Hair that begins with beautiful sunny highlights can end the summer as straw if you do not protect it.
Here are some excellent ways to use hair sun protection:
* Be careful and moisturize - Ocean salt and swimming pool chemicals can cause major hair destruction. The best way to good hair sun protection is constant moisture. Just like your skin, your hair needs moisture to resist damage. Use a leave-in conditioner or mix up a weak mixture of your regular conditioner and water and spritz your hair each time you exit the water.
* Keep watch for Octyl Methyoxycinnamate - In general, complicated chemicals are not what is best for your hair. However, octyl methoxycinnate is one of the best ways to give serious SPF power to a hair product. Also, vitamins A, E and C fend off free radicals when they are in hair products. These are highly charged molecules that cause the cells that they come into contact with to deteriorate rapidly.
* Always Cover Up - A physical barrier between your hair and the sun is the most surefire way to get hair sun protection. Throw a big beach hat on for a glamorous, fully protected look. This is vital when the sun is strongest, between 10 AM and 3PM.
* Use the Right “Do” - Putting hair up in a knot or pony tail can protect most of it from sun exposure. Smooth down fly-aways with a dollop of sunscreen for a quick and put together look.
If you want to avoid damaged locks and major split ends, then you must remember to protect your hair from the sun. Using good hair sun protection habits will help your hair survive until fall.
