As lovely as the warm months can be, those pesky, warmer days can wreak havoc on your luscious locks. Let’s dive into the nitty-gritty of brassiness and explore why summer seems to have a personal vendetta against your gorgeous blonde hair. But worry not, dearest reader, for I shall also arm you with the secrets to prevent that dreaded summer hair damage. So grab your sunglasses, make yourself comfortable, and let us embark on a journey to protect those golden tresses. Remember, knowledge is power; in this case, knowledge is the key to a fabulous, frizz-free, and brassless summer! UV Protection for Blonde Hair Ah, the sun – a blonde’s best friend and worst enemy. Sunshine brings out the best in your golden locks, but too much exposure? Hello, Disney villain hair. Sun is to hair what Kryptonite is to Superman! So, my blonde comrades, if you don’t want to resemble a washed-out Broccoli, SPF for your hair is a must-have. It’s like sunscreen for your hair, keeping those harmful UV rays in check and still picturing yourself with broccoli hair. Next up on our summer essentials – the best hair care products with SPF. There are a bazillion of them out on the market, but dearest to my heart are “Christophe Robin’s Moisturizing Hair Oil with Lavender” and “Redken’s Blonde Idol”. They’re like the Avengers for your hair, shielding it from sun, wind, and the evil that is brassiness. Their superpower? SPF 6 and non-sulphate formula. What’s more, the Lavender Oil smells divine and treats you to a spa-like experience right at home. As for the Blonde Idol, let’s say it does justice to its name! Applying SPF on your hair, you ask? It’s just as easy as applying ketchup on a hotdog. Apply a generous phalanx-size amount of oil to your hair before gallivanting under the sun or diving into the pool. If your hair tends to hold a grudge and goes green with chlorine influence, dampen it with tap water prior. It’s the aquatic equivalent of “Stitch it before you ditch it…”. Light and sun-drenched locks can be your summer’s highlight (pun intended), but only if you remember to send out those UV shields before stepping out. Now go forth, my blonde sunflowers, and soak up that Vitamin D! Handle your hair like you would a new smartphone – protected.
