10 tips to protect your hair from the sun
Welcome hats and scarves!
This is a basic measure to protect your hair. On beach days, when hiking in the mountains, when working in the garden or even when running or cycling... we recommend wearing a scarf, a cap or a hat. They are beautiful, comfortable and most importantly, they mitigate the direct rays of the sun.
Don't leave home without sunscreen
If covering your head doesn't appeal to you, then we recommend that before leaving the house, you apply Soivre's two-phase argan and keratin conditioner . You can also use it before swimming in the sea or pool. This is a product that keeps hair moisturised and protects it from the sun thanks to its built-in sunscreens.
More keratin for hair
Keratin provides strength and elasticity to the hair.. Although it is true that we generate it naturally, in the summer months it is advisable to have an extra supply of this protein. Incorporate a shampoo that includes keratin among its active ingredients into your care and hygiene routine. At Soivre we offer you the shampoo with keratin and argan oil Try this shampoo and fall in love with it in one action!
Do not allow hair to dry in direct sunlight.
Do you remember images of radiant models lying on their faces in the sun and spreading their hair out on the towel or directly on the sand? Well, this commercial poetics is actually harmful in practice. Wet hair under the sun's rays is much more damaged. Ultraviolet rays oxidise or destroy the lipid layer of the hair.

Boosting renewal with stem cells
Because of all the stress that the sun and other agents produce on the hair, you need a rejuvenating ally with plant-derived stem cells. You will restore vitality from the inside. You will make it grow healthier. Try our strengthening and densifying mask formulated with stem cells and Vitamin H . It is the most recommended for poor hair, slow-growing hair and hair damaged by the sun.
Avoid dyes
Hair dyes change colour when exposed to sunlight, not to mention the fact that their chemistry weakens the cuticles. That's why we advise you to do without hair dyes during these months.
If you have an urge to mask grey hair and dye your hair, choose a dark shade or you'll see your blonde mane take on a greenish hue (Shrek would be happy to see you like this, but I don't think you'd be interested in ogres) ;-)
And always wet your hair with cold water after sun exposure. Dyes are ultra-sensitive to heat.
Protect the ends with argan oil (plan A)
A great option for protecting your tips is to serum with pure argan oil 100% . You can put it directly on damp hair when styling your hair. Simply add just a few drops each day. If you want spectacular results, then do a deep argan treatment at home as explained in this article: "Argan oil treatments for hair"..
