The Best Products to Help Repair Your Hair from Sun Damage

The Best Products to Help Repair Your Hair from Sun Damage
Jamie Grill/Getty Images

It’s hard not to luxuriate in the sunshine all summer, especially if you live in a place that’s covered with snow half of the year. Unfortunately, UV rays can wreak havoc on all hair types no matter where you live.

Too much exposure to sunlight demolishes hair proteins and weakens follicles. Fine locks and light-colored strands are more susceptible than thick or dark hair because the sun attacks from the outside and works its way in. On the other hand, ever wonder why darker strands look sun-kissed come September? That’s pigment damage from your hair working overtime to retain as much protein as possible.

Ergo, no matter what your hair type, sun exposure leads to dry, brittle, dull locks. Not fun to see. Even less fun to style. That’s why you need to invest in products designed specifically to rebuild those proteins, nourish damaged strands and bring your luscious locks back to their original splendor. Here are the top products, starting with cleansers, for a solid routine that will have you loving your hair again in no time.
