Before the trip

You should start preparing even before you start packing your suitcase. Here are some simple rules:
1. Perm should be done in the salon at least 3 weeks before the start of the trip.
2. Any type of hair dyeing should be done at least 2 weeks in advance. Although it is best to refuse this procedure altogether. Coloring is a serious test for hair and you should not expose it to unnecessary stress.
3. Visit your hairdresser one week before departure. Have him trim off any split ends of his hair. It is a great idea to shorten your haircut, which will make your hair care easier.

What damaging factors threaten your hair directly on vacation?

There are three of them: ultraviolet radiation from the sun, hot and strong winds, and exposure to salty sea or chlorinated pool water. Unfortunately, all of these factors will act on you at the same time, amplifying each other's negative effects. Let's take a look at them in turn and tell you about the effective protection of hair from the sun, sea water and wind.

• Ultraviolet

The sun's ultraviolet radiation is divided into three types depending on the wavelength: UVA, UVB and UVC. UVC waves are highly scattered in the Earth's atmosphere, and therefore their effect is minimal and can be neglected. But UVA and UV B radiation hits our hair almost unchanged. Their damaging effect is also different: UVA waves dry the hair intensively, and UV B - destroy the pigment, leading to a loss of natural color.

But protecting your skin and hair from harmful ultraviolet radiation is pretty easy. Any headdress or scarf made of light fabric will help you here. Or, if you do not want to use unnecessary details of your wardrobe, then you will have to use special sunscreens, which we will talk about in more detail below. The main thing to remember here is that you need to apply SPF filters at least half an hour before leaving the house, and not sitting on the beach.

• Hot and strong wind

The hot air draws moisture out of the hair rather quickly. Fast gusts of wind easily entangle your hair, which can lead to breakage and split ends. But this problem it is typical mainly for long hair and you can cope with it by simply collecting it in a ponytail or, better, in a braid. And tangled hair will need to be gently combed with a comb with rare teeth, using a spray conditioner before.

• Sea or chlorinated water

Here, the main danger is sea salt or chlorine contained in pool water. They very quickly wash out the dyes from the hair and dehydrate them due to their hygroscopicity. In order to cope with this danger, it is enough to thoroughly rinse your head with clean fresh water at least once a day.

What to take with you and how to protect your hair from the sun at sea?

First, a headdress should be your indispensable companion. A panama made of natural light-colored fabric or even a straw hat will provide the head with excellent protection from both UV and heatstroke. Secondly, you will need a set of products that will provide your hair with sufficient care when traveling to southern latitudes. Such care consists of three stages:

• Cleaning: shampoo

Contrary to popular belief, SPF protection for shampoo is not very important. Even if it contains substances that work as UV filters, then after you rinse your hair, they will practically not remain on your hair. The main tasks when using shampoo are moisturizing and cleansing. Hence, you will need at least two different vials of this cosmetic product... They should be used in a two-to-one ratio: wash your hair twice with a moisturizing shampoo, and once with a cleansing shampoo.

• Recovery: conditioner or mask

It is the primary weapon to combat the negative effects of sea salt. Drying on the hair, the salt makes the cuticle scales rise, and gradually penetrates into the hair shaft, where it begins to destroy its amino acid base. Using conditioners or restorative masks after shampooing will help smooth cuticles and protect your hair from chemical damage.

• Protection: SPF filters

But these care products are exactly what protects hair from the sun directly, blocking its ultraviolet radiation. They work by enveloping each hair, enclosing it in a kind of protective shell, which, due to its physical and chemical characteristics, does not transmit ultraviolet light.

The release form of such cosmetic products can be very different - oils, creams, sprays, mousses, etc. Which option to choose is not so important, unless the owners of thin hair are better off using oils. But what will be really useful is the content in this product, in addition to the ultraviolet filter, of some caring, nutritional or moisturizing components. In this way, you get both sun protection and hair health support at the same time.

Highly good choice will become products that do not require rinsing. They can be applied to hair once and left until the next shampooing. And all this time they will perform their protective functions well. Moreover, many manufacturers produce specialized lines of liners for hot summer seasons. The formulations in these cosmetics are usually selected in such a way as to make their daily use possible and safe.

Types UV filters

All types of hair protection against ultraviolet radiation from the Sun can be divided into three large groups - chemical, natural and physical.

Chemical filters

It's pretty large group substances obtained synthetically. These include, in particular:

• avobenzone;
• mexoril;
• tinosorb;
• octisalicylate;
• octocrylene;
• cinnamates and a number of other compounds.

A feature of such products is their very high reliability and a consistently maximum (SPF 50) degree of protection against UV radiation. Moreover, chemical filters can block both the UVA spectrum and UVB, and some - both at once, being universal. Plus, such substances are water-resistant, colorless, odorless and leave no marks on hair and skin.

However, cosmetology specialists do not recommend using products with chemical filters. Why? Because with all the undoubted advantages, they have a very significant disadvantage - after about two hours of being under the sun, these compounds begin to change their properties and work as oxidants, destroying the protein base of the hair.

Natural filters

Various oils can be used as such agents. In fact, this is the answer to the frequently asked question, how can you effectively and cheaply protect your hair from the Sun at home. This effect is possessed by:

• jojoba oil (SPF 4);
• shea butter (SPF 2-5);
• sesame oil (SPF 5);
• almond oil(SPF 5);
• macadamia oil (SPF 6);
• coconut and olive oil (SPF 2-8);
• avocado oil (SPF 4-15);
• wheat germ oil (SPF 20);
• carrot seed oil (SPF 38-40);
• raspberry seed oil (SPF 28-50).

It would seem, why then buy professional products, and not use almond oil to protect hair from the sun? The answer is simple: natural UV filters have a fairly large number of limitations and application features:
1. They are not suitable for thin hair, as we have already mentioned above.
2. Vegetable oils decompose very quickly, and therefore will provide you with protection for no more than one hour, and then it will need to be renewed.
3. The oil film has a certain refractive effect, which "attracts" the sun's rays to the hair. That is, with a minimal decrease in the intensity of protection, the oil begins to work "against" your hair, increasing its fading.

Physical filters

These are, first of all, titanium dioxide and zinc oxide. Here the sunscreen effect is based solely on the optical properties of these substances, which are capable of reflecting ultraviolet radiation. Their SPF index ranges from 10 to 30. The advantages of such funds:

• maximum safety - they are not toxic and do not interact in any way with either the hair or the scalp;
• versatility - reflect both UVA and UVB spectrum;
• photostability - do not change their properties and structures under the influence of sunlight;
• efficiency even at low concentration;
• low cost.

Physical filters also have a number of disadvantages:

• instability to mechanical stress - such a reflective film can be easily wiped off the hair;
• instability to water - these products are washed off after shampooing and must be reapplied;
• dulling hair is purely cosmetic and can nevertheless affect your look.

How to use hair protection products correctly?

Vacation hair care should consist of several steps:
1. Dampen hair with warm water, take a small amount of shampoo and massage the roots and scalp until lathering. Then spread this lather all over the hair and rinse.
2. Then, on a clean head, use the conditioner with the same massage movements. Next, you need to pause for 5-7 minutes so that the nutrients have time to provide their restorative effect. After that, rinse your head with warm water again.
3. Finally, apply sunscreen to dry hair and leave it there until the next shampoo.

Can I use as UV filter something else, if specialized tools are not available?

Will color, toner, silicone, chamomile, other substances, treatments or herbs protect your hair from the sun? No, they won't. All of these products do not have the ability to interfere with the spread of ultraviolet rays. Exactly the same answer will be for the question of whether thermal protection, which is used with hot styling methods, is suitable for protecting hair in the sun. Its task is to prevent high temperatures from damaging hair. And on the beach, the main danger is not heat, but ultraviolet light. Thermal protection is simply not designed to block out solar radiation.

Is there any alternative to specialized SPF cosmetics? Yes, as we said, you can use any vegetable oil, but its protective effect will be short-lived. In addition, sun filters applied to the skin will provide temporary protection to the hair. But it is better to use them for a short time, only as an "emergency option".

How can you additionally help your hair when traveling to the sea?

• If you want to lift your hair, it is better to pull it closer to the neck, not to the crown. This will help protect the tips from unnecessary sun damage.
• When making such a tail, choose the softest, thickest and widest elastic bands. Unlike tighter and thinner ones, they have a minimal traumatic effect on the hair. A good option the use of a hairpin, better than a wooden one, will also become.
• It should be remembered that curling the hair into a "muzzle" is, of course, very convenient, but their long-term stay in this state will not bring anything good. Especially if you curled your hair in this way while still wet. High humidity makes hair brittle and especially susceptible to any mechanical damage.
• If there is no shower on the beach, take 2-3 liters of fresh water with you and use it to periodically rinse the salt from your hair.
• Avoid using high temperature stacking tools. Give your hair a break from curls or irons. Moreover, the appearance of the hairstyle that such a styling can provide for you will still not last too long. There is always high humidity on the seaside, which means that the effect of all your efforts to curl or, conversely, straighten your hair will soon be destroyed.
• In case you still cannot imagine an evening at the resort without a strict hairstyle, you will need special tools. Is not ordinary varnishes for fixing hair, and cosmetics bearing the Apres Beach mark. This marking means that this treatment is specially adapted to high humidity conditions and with it the hairstyle has every chance of not getting disheveled until late at night.
• Use a comb more often. The best option is a brush with natural bristles or a comb of wood or bone with sparse and large teeth.

How to maintain hair after returning home from vacation?

Even if you are not too lazy to buy all the sun protection products you need, and did not neglect their use, it is most likely that you will not be able to completely avoid damage. Alas, the intensity of the summer sun in southern latitudes is so high that no SPF filter is perfect, and salt water and hot winds will make your hair drier despite any moisturizing treatments. Therefore, in order to quickly return their condition to normal, you will need to take a number of restorative measures:

• During the first week after vacation, wash your hair at least a couple of times with a mild cleansing shampoo.
• Pay extra attention to hydration to help relieve the flaky scalp that often results from the combined effects of sun, sand and wind.
• Visit your hairdresser and let him rid you of split and dry ends just like before your trip.
• Try to wash your hair for some time after the trip, not with ordinary clean water, but with decoctions of medicinal herbs. Pharmaceutical chamomile, dioecious nettle, dried linden flowers, burdock root or string are perfect as phytopreparations.
• Very useful during this period nourishing masks... They are easy to make at home. To do this, you need to take 2 egg yolks and add the juice squeezed from half a medium-sized lemon to them. Stir the resulting mixture and pour 10 drops of any vegetable oil(better than burdock or almond). Apply this mask to the washed head, spreading it over the entire hair strip. Cover them with cling film, and on top with a terry towel and hold for 15-20 minutes. Then rinse your hair thoroughly with warm water and comb it gently.

"Site", with full or partial copying of the material, a link to the source is required.

In the hot season, many people use sunscreens; they reliably protect the skin from the negative and harmful effects of bright ultraviolet rays. But for some reason, almost all of us forget that hair also needs additional protection in the summer season. Summer, so pleasant and inviting, is the main enemy of the beauty and health of the hair, because the sun's rays, air conditioners and fans in the premises, salty sea water, increased dustiness of the air - all this causes tangible harm not only to the external state of the curls, but also to their internal structure. In order to take maximum care of the beauty and health of the curls, it is important to use hair protection from the sun in the summer period of the year.

The sun is the main "enemy" of hair beauty

Ultraviolet rays cause tremendous damage to any type of strand.

• Alpha rays included in the ultraviolet component instantly dehydrate the hairs.
• Beta rays, which are also part of the sun's rays, negatively affect the color of the strands, destroying the pigment of both natural and colored hair. If you do not take care of your hair and stay in the sun for a long time without the protection of certain means, then the strands become dull, thin, brittle, lifeless, begin to split and fall out.
• In addition, ultraviolet light helps to "pull" nutrient and vitaminized components, water and lipids from the hair structure. The result of this action is thin and voluminous curls, devoid of flexibility and elasticity.
• Another negative factor, which is observed more often in the summer, is frequent washing the head, which helps to dry the strands.

But the bright sun poses a great danger to colored hair, since ultraviolet light actively neutralizes chemical dyes, which leads to the appearance of a completely unusual color shade on the head. In addition, frequent and prolonged exposure to the sun contributes to the fact that the colored curls begin to fall out, and after that signs of early baldness form on the head.

What is hair care in summer?

Since in the summer the curls are negatively affected by several natural factors at once, then the protection for the strands should be comprehensive. To ensure the most effective protection of your hair from the sun's rays, you must adhere to the following basics:

• Between 11.00 and 16.00 o'clock in the daytime, being outside under the scorching rays of the bright sun, it is important to always wear a hat. It is advisable in the summer to always have a light kerchief with you, a scarf or a hat, so that you can put them on immediately if necessary.
• After swimming in the sea, in a river, pond or in any other natural body of water, it is important to rinse the curls with clean water. A herbal decoction based on plants such as chamomile, nettle, calendula, St. John's wort, etc. can become a substitute for water.
• If you are planning a trip to the southern resort cities, then you need to refuse staining, highlighting or perm strands. The indicated cosmetic procedures can be done approximately 2 weeks before the planned trip.

• In the hot period of the year, it is important to minimize the use of thermal tongs, hair irons, and hair dryers.
• Before swimming in salty sea water, curls need to be treated with nourishing and protective essential oils.
• Before visiting the beach or just going outside under the scorching rays of the sun, curls must be treated with a protective spray or shampoo / gel / balm.
• To stimulate the release of protective lipids on the scalp, it is recommended to regularly comb the curls with massage combs made of natural materials.
• It is highly undesirable to lighten the strands with any kind of lightening agents throughout the summer.
• While the weather is hot and sunny, it is recommended to stop using styling products such as foam, gel, varnish, mousse. You can replace the specified styling products with special hair-fixing sprays, which contain UV-protective substances.

• For shampooing throughout the summer, you can use only soft, moderately warm water. You can soften it by simply boiling it or adding lemon juice.
• For colored strands, maximum care is required; they must be regularly treated with shampoos or toners that fix the color.
• To fully protect the strands from negative and harmful sunlight, curls care must be comprehensive.
