Your scalp is just as susceptible to sun damage as any other exposed skin; UV radiation can cause burning, discoloration, and even skin cancer over time. The scalp, however, is more difficult to protect than other areas due to hair, and you may find it difficult to find the right sunscreen to protect it fully. When looking for a sunscreen to protect your scalp and hair, consider the following:
1. Sun Protection Factor: The higher the SPF of the sunscreen, the higher the level of protection it offers; look for an SPF of 30 or higher.
2. Ingredients: As with other forms of skin care, look for natural ingredients, such as plant-based oils and herbal extracts, rather than synthetics.
3. Application: Consider how easy it is to apply to the scalp and hair; many sunscreens require some level of manual application (i.e. brushing, combing, etc.).
4. Style: Evaluate whether the sunscreen provides adequate lift, styling, and volume, and choose one that works for you.
