Comment protéger ses cheveux du soleil ?

How to protect your hair from the sun?

Nothing is better for the skin and the hair than a good sun bath... However, too much exposure, the sun can harm your health and damage your skin but also your hair!

Today we give you 5 tips to protect your hair from the sun .

WHAT RISKS?

Hair is made up of 95% keratin, which is a fundamental natural protein. It is she who gives strength, shine and elasticity to the hair.

When UV rays penetrate the hair, they damage the keratin. This is why the hair becomes dull, dry, split ends and breaks if it has been left too long under the sun without protection.

OUR 5 TIPS

1 - PREPARE YOUR HAIR FOR THE HOLIDAYS

Before leaving and during your stay, we advise you to use repairing and moisturizing shampoos, without forgetting to carry out hair care .

But above all: don't forget to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water !


2 - COVER YOUR HAIR

Simple but effective, wearing a hat or a cloth to cover the hair is strongly recommended.

Prefer hats with wide brims, which will provide more shadows and protect a larger area.

3 - APPLY THERMAL PROTECTION

We advise you to apply thermal protection without rinsing before and after each swim, just like sun protection for the body.

Products such as protective oils or sprays , equipped with a UV filter are therefore the essentials to take away!

4 - AVOID ANY OTHER SOURCE OF HEAT

In addition to the heat of the sun, be careful not to rinse your hair with hot water during your showers. Instead, rinse with cold or lukewarm water .

Likewise, we advise you to let your hair dry naturally and to limit the use of heated appliances such as straighteners, hair dryers, curlers, etc.

5 - COLORING WILL HAVE TO WAIT

Colored hair is much more sensitive to aggressions caused by sea water and the sun than natural hair. Without protection, the scales of the hair will open, allowing the color pigments to escape. The color may change in this case!

We advise you to postpone your color until later or to protect your hair with a suitable spray .
