Hair Sun Protection
While using sun protection for your skin has become second nature, have you considered your hair? UV rays can cause considerable damage to your hair fibres. Using a hair sun protection product is crucial to preserve and maintain your hair's health. Discover the essential steps to keep your tresses radiant in the sun.
Why Apply Sun Protection to Your Hair?
Much like our skin, hair is vulnerable to harmful sun effects. UV rays can weaken their structure, leading to numerous issues. Without protection, your hair may fade, become dry, and brittle, losing its shine with split ends appearing. Applying hair sun protection before each exposure is vital. Moreover, it's not just the sun; saltwater and chlorine also damage hair fibres. Choose a product with sun filters and strengthening agents to help your hair withstand external aggressors.
What Are NUXE's Sun Protection Products Made Of?
NUXE's sun protection products for skin feature a patented filtering complex. Born from NUXE's research, it includes three organic filters and two esters selected for their UV efficacy. Our NUXE Sun Moisturising Protective Milky Oil for Hair contains two organic UV filters, providing optimal protection against UVA and UVB rays.
This protective treatment also hydrates and adds shine to your hair, thanks to organic coconut and jojoba oils. We’ve enriched our ultra-light, non-greasy formula with panthenol. This sun protection guards all hair types, even coloured hair, from UV damage while safeguarding against salt and chlorine effects. Furthermore, the NUXE Sun Moisturising Protective Milky Oil for Hair is non-toxic to marine ecosystems.
How to Properly Apply Hair Sun Protection?
Here are practical tips to shield your hair effectively from the sun:
Choose a Specific Product
A hair-specific sun protection product provides a UV barrier suited for hair fibre needs. Enriched with beneficial ingredients like panthenol or organic jojoba and coconut oils, it nourishes and hydrates without weighing down your hair.
Apply Generously Before Exposure
Shake well before applying the NUXE Sun Moisturising Protective Milky Oil for Hair. Use generously on all hair strands with our spray bottle ensuring optimal product distribution. Pay extra attention to the most exposed areas and the tips.
Reapply Regularly
Like skin sunscreen, reapply your hair UV protection every two hours. Also, apply again after swimming as the NUXE Sun Moisturising Protective Milky Oil for Hair can be used on wet hair.
Protect Your Scalp
Don't forget that your scalp can also suffer from sunburn. If you have fine or thinning hair, a hat or scarf provides additional protection.
Remember, using a hair spray does not replace sun protection for the rest of your body and face.
What Types of Hair Sun Protection Are Available?
There are various types of hair sun protection:
Protective Hair Oils
These are designed to shield hair from UV rays while hydrating and adding shine. Rich in nourishing ingredients like organic jojoba or coconut oil, they can be applied before and during sun exposure for an even coat over your hair. It's best to choose a spray format.
After-Sun Shampoos and Conditioners
Create a hair care routine suited for summer conditions. With a gentle formula like the NUXE Sun After-Sun Hair & Body Shampoo, it cleanses your hair fibre of filter residues, salt, and chlorine. Hair remains unaffected, clean, and ready to absorb your conditioner’s restorative and nourishing benefits. Consider a weekly repair mask for fortified hair ready to withstand the sun.
Hats
Caps, wide-brimmed hats, or scarves: these fashion accessories also offer sun protection for hair.
Applying hair sun protection is essential to shield against the sun's harmful effects. Choose a specific product with UV filters and hydrating ingredients for protection and nourishment, maintaining your hair's natural beauty. Reapply regularly and embrace the serene joys of sunny days.
