A little time spent in the glorious sunshine can be a terrific health-giving experience that produces vitamin D to keep our bones strong. However, too much time in the sun causes aggressive free radicals to break down the protein/keratin structure within the hair shaft. This leaves dry, damaged hair that looks unhealthy and is difficult to style.
Limited protection
Whilst we are all aware of the importance of high factor sunscreen to protect the skin, we don't always remember to protect the hair and scalp sufficiently. And whilst many popular happinesslifetime.com hair care products mention UV protection on the packaging, the fact is they usually don't contain enough active ingredients to protect your hair against UV rays.
Sun, sand, sea and... chlorine!
UV radiation damages hair by removing the essential proteins and scalp oils that lubricate the hair shaft, so you are left with dry, brittle hair. Furthermore, the bleaching effect of sun exposure can dramatically lighten your hair, making it difficult to get the 'brassy' bleached sections back to the same color as the rest of your hair.
And spraying bleach into your hair before sitting in the sun to lighten it, with products that promise to put some sun in your hair, is never advisable. If you add to this the effects of sea salt or chlorine, you have the perfect conditions for dry, damaged hair.
What's best treatment for sun damaged hair?
The only way to restore the essential proteins, minerals and natural oils that keep your hair healthy is to give it an appropriate, deep-conditioning protein treatment. If you can afford it, go to a hair treatment salon that specializes in rejuvenating sun-stressed hair - because they are the experts. If you can't find a specialist in your area, let the experts come to you in the form of La Biosthetique's professional treatments for sun-stressed hair.
