Haircare For Suncare

When it comes to suncare, we know it’s not just our skin we should protect but also our tresses. In the same way we use heat-protecting products to keep our locks safe from damage while using styling tools we also need to consider the heat from the sun when it comes to hair styling. Below are some of our favourite hair products to keep our do looking its best. —Vicki Duong

oribe. When it comes to healthy hair, it starts at the scalp. We’ve been loving this skincare-inspired scalp treatment ($73) from Oribe, that controls oil production, keeps your scalp healthy and protected from environmental pollutants. Reducing oil production extends time between washes and styling making it easier for us to keep our heat styling at bay keeping our hair healthier for longer.

kerasilk. Sometimes we need a little TLC when it comes to repairing heat damaged hair. The Kerasilk Liquid Cuticle Filler ($38) is our miracle in a bottle. This vegan formula repairs the hair cuticle leaving your tresses naturally full while also providing heat protection while leaving a soft fragrance blend of bergamot, cypress and apples. Plus, this formula is a leave-in making it ideal to toss into your beach bag and apply post-swim.

redken. It’s no secret that the heat is not friendly to colour-treated hair but thankfully there are products available to keep your highlights vibrant and fresh. The Color Extend line from Redken includes a shampoo ($24) and conditioner ($26) not only cleanses and hydrates, but is formulated to keep your colour radiant while fighting the stress of heat and other environmental aggressors.

biolage. To keep our hair protected yet still styled, the Thermal Active Hairspray ($28) from Biolage is a lifesaver. Equal parts heat protectant and hair spray, this mist strengthens and repairs damaged hair while also providing medium hold. Plus, Biolage’s entire range is certified cruelty free by the Leaping Bunny Program so you can feel good while looking great.

sun bum. Sunscreen is not just for your body, but anywhere your skin may be exposed including your scalp. Thankfully, Sun Bum has formulated a spray ($21) specifically for your scalp with an SPF 30 with a precise nozzle to ensure even application. Bonus, it won’t weigh down your hair or leave it feeling greasy.
