01
Protect your hair from direct sunlight by wearing a wide-brimmed hat or a cap. This provides a physical barrier against UV rays and helps prevent sun damage.
02
Invest in hair care products that offer UV protection. Look for shampoos, conditioners, and leave-in treatments formulated to shield your hair from harmful sun exposure.
03
Before heading out, apply a leave-in conditioner to your hair. This helps to lock in moisture and creates a barrier against the drying effects of the sun.
04
During the summer months, minimize the use of heated styling tools such as flat irons and curling wands. These tools, combined with sun exposure, can lead to increased damage.
05
Treat your hair to regular deep conditioning treatments to replenish moisture and maintain its health. Deep conditioning helps counteract the drying effects of the sun.
06
Overwashing your hair can strip away its natural oils, leaving it more susceptible to damage from the sun. Consider washing your hair less frequently during the summer.
07
Just as hydration is important for your body, it's essential for your hair too. Drink plenty of water to keep your hair hydrated from the inside out.
08
Before swimming in a pool, wet your hair with clean water. This helps minimize the absorption of chlorinated or saltwater, which can contribute to dryness and damage.
09
Consider wearing protective hairstyles like braids, twists, or updos. These styles help shield your hair from excessive sun exposure while keeping it neat and manageable.
