Summer is just around the corner and the weather is finally getting warmer. All of us are itching to get outside now that the weather is nice! But did you know being in the sun for a short time can affect your hair color? The sun can do as much damage to your hair as it can to your skin. If you've taken the time to color your hair, or even if you haven't, here are some things you need to know.
The sun causes hair to shed the outer layer of the hair shaft. When this happens, your hair will look faded since the color pigments have been removed. The ends will also dry out. All of this removes the shine from your hair. Here's the surprising thing - all of this can happen within one hour of being in the sun!
How do you avoid all of this? Wear a hat or use a hair treatment that will protect your hair color.
