As the summer sun beams down, our hair faces the risk of heat damage and while we often focus on our skin during the warmer months, our hair is neglected. The combination of high temperatures, UV rays, and exposure to styling tools can leave your locks dry, brittle, and prone to breakage.
Lets unpack the signs of sun damaged hair:
Dryness:
UV rays can strip your hair of its natural moisture, leaving it dry and more prone to breakage.
Color Fading:
Sun exposure can cause color-treated hair to fade more quickly.
Split Ends:
Sun damage can contribute to the development of split ends, making the hair more susceptible to breakage.
Changes in Texture:
Over time, sun exposure can alter the texture of your hair, making it feel coarse or rough.
