The good weather is here and we cannot forget to protect our skin from the sun. In fact, we should apply the protector throughout the year, but now, when the sun's rays are strongest, it should be essential in our beauty routine. And what about the hair? If we protect our skin, we should also protect our hair. For example, I have dyed hair and two years ago I did not apply the hair protector. The result? A dehydrated, burned, dull hair with yellowish highlights. Last year I did not make the same mistake and discovered the benefits of sunscreen for hair . Still not using it? Keep reading because then, this interests you.
"Without proper protection, the consequences of sun exposure on hair are dire: UV rays burn the cuticle, the outer layer of the hair causing frizz, decompose the keratin fiber of the hair, which results in extremely dry manes , weak and brittle and, finally, the weakening of the capillary cuticle that makes our hair dry and unmanageable ", they explain to us from the Leonor Greyl brand .
And how to get it right with sunscreen for hair?
- Bet on natural filters. Choose botanical ingredients that provide protection against ultraviolet radiation. This is the case, for example, of moringa proteins and other natural active ingredients such as karanja and mongongo oils, which enhance protection against ultraviolet radiation.
- No alcohol. At least in your hair protector! Added to the dehydrating effects of the sun are those of alcohol, which not only dries out the hair, but also the scalp, causing frizz, flaking and even hair loss.
- Not to silicones. They can cause skin irritation and itchy scalp. But it is also that, apart from its effect on the hair, the silicones that you deposit in your hair remain in the water with each bath, polluting seas and oceans.
- Double protection. Botanical extracts should be added to sun filters that prevent color oxidation, hydrate, nourish and restructure damaged hair.
- Natural preservatives. The most respectful formulas with 100% natural preservatives are the best protection alternative under the sun because they do their job without altering the hair fiber and hair.
