UV Radiation and Hair 🌞

UV Radiation and Hair 🌞

Hair Reflects Your Personality, and Beautiful, Healthy Hair is Part of Our Well-Being. Hair is very sensitive to external factors, whether mechanical, physical, or chemical. The most common damage to the hair structure is caused by UV radiation. Just as we use sunscreen to protect our skin, we must also pay attention to protecting our hair.

What Does the Sun Do to Our Hair?

Drying hair in the sun or spending long hours in the sun without head coverage causes hair to lose essential moisture. Hair loses its shine and becomes difficult to comb due to dryness, which in turn leads to hair breakage. UV radiation can damage not only the surface of the hair but also its inner structure, resulting in brittle, split, and lackluster hair.

Signs of Sun-Damaged Hair:

  • Change in Hair Surface – Smooth hair may appear dry, brittle, and lose its elasticity.
  • Split Ends – Hair ends split faster than usual.
  • Sudden Hair Color Change – UV radiation can affect hair color. Prolonged exposure to the sun can cause hair to fade or dull, as the hair surface is not protected.

What Can You Do to Protect Your Hair?

Summer hair care should include, in addition to shampoo and conditioner, a deep-moisturizing product. Vitamin-rich oils are great helpers, providing intensive care and helping the hair recover after prolonged sun exposure. Hair oils help restore a healthy appearance, adding shine and softness. Since hair oils seal the outer, protective layer of the hair, hair becomes more resistant to high temperatures.

Coconut oil, jojoba oil, castor oil, and argan oil are excellent for nourishing the hair, and these oils are also found in "MY HAIR SECRET" hair oil. These plant oils contain fatty acids, antioxidants, and minerals that help maintain healthy hair and protect it from the harmful effects of UV radiation. In the summer, you can apply hair oil before each wash, which helps prepare your hair for the next day at the beach or restore it after long sun exposure.

Important Vitamins for Hair Protection Found in Plant Oils:

  • Vitamin A – Helps lock moisture into the hair shaft. It helps prevent dryness, brittleness, and split ends.
  • Vitamin E – Supports overall hair health by helping to maintain elasticity, strength, and structure. Vitamin E helps reduce hair breakage and split ends.
  • Vitamin B – Supports the natural shine and elasticity of the hair.

Hair Oil Usage Recommendations:

To provide maximum moisture to your hair, leave the oil in your hair and scalp overnight. Be sure to cover your pillow with a towel during the night treatment to avoid staining your pillow.
