You Protect Your Skin from the Sun… But What About Your Hair?

Your Hair Needs Sunscreen Too

Español en la parte de abajo



We’re all careful to apply sunscreen before a sunny day out — but most people forget that our hair needs protection too.
Summer sun, chlorine, and saltwater can leave your hair
dry, dull, and damaged if you’re not proactive.

Whether you're hitting the beach, lounging by the pool, or simply enjoying sunny days outdoors, your hair is exposed to more than you think.


How the Sun Affects Your Hair

Here’s what really happens to your strands under intense sun exposure:

  • UV rays weaken the outer layer of your hair (the cuticle), leading to breakage, split ends, and frizz.
  • Color-treated or highlighted hair fades faster and can become brassy or patchy in tone.
  • Salt and chlorine strip away natural oils, leaving your hair rough, brittle, and lifeless.


3 Summer Must-Haves for Hair Protection

These professional products are our top picks to keep your hair healthy and beautiful all summer:


  • Salerm’s UV Protective Spray
    Lightweight, hydrating, and perfect for daily use — especially before outdoor exposure.
  • L’Oréal Professionnel Vitamino Color 10-in-1
    Multi-benefit leave-in treatment that protects color-treated hair, adds shine, softness, and offers heat protection.
  • Versum Sun Defense
    Excellent for pre-beach or post-pool care — it hydrates, shields, and maintains your hair's vitality.


Your Complete Summer Hair Care Guide

BEFORE SUN/POOL/BEACH:

  • Apply a leave-in conditioner or UV spray generously on mid-lengths and ends.
  • Style in protective hairstyles like braids or a loose bun.
  • Wear a hat or scarf to physically block sun exposure.


DURING EXPOSURE:

  • Reapply your UV spray after swimming or prolonged sun exposure.
  • Avoid brushing wet hair with hard bristles — use a wide-tooth comb.
  • Never use tight elastics when your hair is wet.


AFTER EXPOSURE:

  • Wash your hair with a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo.
  • Use a deep conditioning mask or ampoule to restore moisture.
  • Finish with a serum or oil to seal and smooth the hair shaft.


Don’t wait for your hair to show signs of damage.
Start protecting it today and enjoy radiant, healthy hair all summer long.

Proteges tu piel del sol…

¿pero qué hay de tu cabello?


Todas solemos aplicar protector solar antes de un día soleado, pero muchas veces olvidamos que el cabello también necesita protección.

El sol, el cloro y el agua salada pueden dejar tu melena seca, opaca y dañada si no tomas medidas a tiempo.
Ya sea que vayas a la playa, a la piscina o simplemente disfrutes del aire libre, tu cabello está más expuesto de lo que crees.

¿Qué le pasa al cabello con el sol?

  • Los rayos UV debilitan la capa externa del cabello, causando quiebre, puntas abiertas y frizz.
  • El cabello teñido o con mechas pierde color más rápido y puede volverse pajoso o amarillento.
  • El cloro y la sal eliminan los aceites naturales, dejando el cabello áspero y sin vida.

3 imprescindibles para proteger tu cabello en verano

  • Salerm UV Protective Spray
    Ligero, hidratante y perfecto para usar todos los días antes de salir.
  • L’Oréal Professionnel Vitamino Color 10-en-1
    Tratamiento sin enjuague que protege el color, aporta suavidad, brillo y defensa térmica.
  • Versum Sun Defense
    Ideal antes de la playa o después de la piscina — hidrata, protege y mantiene la vitalidad del cabello.

Guía rápida para cuidar tu cabello este verano

ANTES del sol o el agua:

  • Aplica leave-in o spray UV en medios y puntas
  • Usa trenzas o moños sueltos
  • Cubre tu cabello con sombrero o pañuelo

DURANTE la exposición:

  • Reaplica el spray si te mojas
  • Usa peines de dientes anchos
  • No uses gomas apretadas con el cabello mojado

DESPUÉS:

  • Lava con shampoo sin sulfato
  • Aplica mascarilla hidratante
  • Sella con aceite o sérum

No esperes a que el daño aparezca.

Empieza a proteger tu cabello desde hoy y disfruta de una melena sana y radiante todo el verano.
