Applying SPF to the face is a given, but the scalp and hair are often overlooked. UV exposure can cause a sore, flaky, sunburned scalp, and lead to dry, coarse, and brittle hair. βOver time, the sun can eventually denature the keratin in your hair, making it more prone to breakage,β says Anabel Kingsley, consultant trichologist at Philip Kingsley. It can also bleach colored strands, making “lightened hair in particular appear more brassy.”
