Hair Sunscreen

kathie66 — Sat, 29 Jun 2024 13:34:57 GMT

Does anybody have a sunscreen for hair they can recommend? I do wear a hat but am out in the sun hours each day. It fades my color so much quicker, and dries out my hair. I have medium brown, long, color-treated hair. I want to keep my color from turning brassy and fading.

Thanks in advance. Have a good day!

I was looking for a sunscreen for the part in my hair, the scalp is exposed to the sun. I haven't tried any yet but Coola and Sun Bum both make products for the hair.

My part got burned recently, does not help that I have very thin hair. agree it needs protecting for a lengthy exposure

@Jordan2 Thanks, I have both the Coola and Sun Bum products coming to me from Ulta. I also want to protect my scalp too.

The UV from sun exposure can cause the hair follicles to prematurely go into the shedding phase of the hair-growth cycle. I always wear a hat in the sun. I have thinning hair as it is.

Hats are good but get one that has a UPF rating. UV rays go right through most regular kinds of hats but UPF-rated hats block the UV which is what causes bleaching and sun damage.

I wear a UPF hat when out in the sun for any time. Especially when mowing pastures for over an hour at a time. I agree with @SilleeMee about getting a sun protection hat.

Great! I think that's the best thing to do.

The hats are getting bigger & bigger, DH laughs every time I get mine out. I think those tiny umbrella hats is a better idea at this point & probably more comfortable especially when you are at theme parks, etc.

I don't do sun, but, my friend has thin, fine hair. Just limp. She got skin cancer of the scalp and had to apply some kind of dermatologist cancer cream to the part in her hair that was affected.

Had to apply for like a yr. scabbed over and the Dr.

had to use a blade to cut the scabbed area off.

The cancer cream burned like fire she said.

You all best take a bath in sunscreen and wear a hat that ties on to stay on.
