Protecting Your Hair & Scalp: A Summer Essential
For centuries,cultures across the Middle East and North Africa have relied on the power of oils to nurture and repair hair. From Moroccan argan oil to Gulf cactus oil, thes nutrient-rich treatments are traditionally used to strengthen roots and condition the scalp – a practice now supported by research demonstrating their ability to reduce protein loss and maintain scalp barrier health. This makes incorporating oils into your hair care routine particularly crucial during sun exposure.
Recognizing this need, brands are increasingly focusing on scalp and hair protection. SunKiss, for example, offers targeted solutions like their CocoLime Spray SPF 30+, which provides a protective shield while together hydrating and conditioning. Their Sun Defense Spray SPF 30+ further nourishes with a blend of coconut, avocado, and sesame oils, restoring shine and preventing protein loss – especially beneficial for colour-treated hair.
As awareness of sun protection grows, it’s vital to extend that care to frequently enough-overlooked areas like the scalp.Neglecting this can lead to preventable damage, yet it’s frequently missing from daily routines. Prioritizing scalp health is key, as experts emphasize: “The scalp really shouldn’t be ignored.”
