Konnichiwa! I'll be making another blog about our lovely hair to protect it from the UV rays of the sun! So we will continue to have our Happy Summer! Let's Start! :]
1.Wet your hair and spritz on a leave-in conditioner before hitting the beach or pool. Look for products that contain an SPF (sun-protection factor). This will coat the shaft of the hair with a protective keep the hat on!
2.The best way to protect your hair from the sun's rays is to block the exposure to the sun. Whether you decide to put on a baseball cap or don a wide brimmed beauty, most hats provide 100% protection from the sun's rays. Of course, if portions of your hair hang out of the hat, you'll want to protect that in other ways!
3.While I think the idea of shampoos and conditioners with SPF are pretty great, in reality they just aren't the best option. Anything that you rinse off your hair can not leave behind enough SPF to protect your hair from the sun.
4.Reduce your amount of loose hair. For instance, styling your hair in braids and ponytails limits the amount of hair that's exposed to direct sunlight. It also decreases preparation time, which can be beneficial in case your plans quickly change.
5.
Refrain from using oily hair products before going into direct sunlight. Use caution when applying products such as oil sheen, hair sprays and gels as sunlight can heat these products to dangerous temperatures. Consider using these products before bedtime, or on days when you won't be in the sun for long periods, in order to receive the benefits without the burn

Don't Forget These Final TipsHalf the battle of protecting your hair from the sun happens when you're not even in the sun!
- Clarify! If you're using a UV protection in your hair, don't forget to use a clarifying shampooonce a week. SPF will build up on your hair shaft and a clarifying shampoo can remedy that. For lots of build up, try a super clarifying treatment.
- Protect Your Part! Use full strength SPF directly on your scalp where you part your hair. The scalp's direct exposure to the sun in that manner can burn and peel! Hit your ears with the sunscreen as well!
- Maintain Moisture! Weekly deep conditioning treatments will help keep the damage by the sun at a minimum. Because the sun breaks down the hair's protein (keratin) its important to use a deep conditioning treatment with protein or keratin.
- Just Say NO!... to alcohol, peroxide, lemon juice, and "sun activated hair lightening" products. Check the labels and stay away from hair products that contain high levels of alcohol or peroxide. And please, do not try to lighten your hair using lemon juice or other sun activated hair lightening products. These products will cause your hair to dry out faster and will speed the process of damage caused by the sun.
