Because Your Hair Deserves Shade Too!
Summer is here — and while we all love those sunny beach days and vitamin D boosts, let’s be honest: your hair doesn’t love the sun as much as you do.
Too much sun exposure can dry out your hair, fade your hair colour, damaged your scalp, and make your strands feel like straw.
But don’t worry — protecting your hair doesn’t mean skipping fun. With a few simple steps and the right products (hello, Goli Soda!), you can keep your locks happy, hydrated, and sun-safe all summer long.
🌞 How Does The Sun Damage Hair?
Just like your skin, your hair and scalp can get sunburnt too. Here’s what happens:
-
UV rays break down proteins in your hair, making it weak and brittle
-
The sun strips moisture, causing dryness and frizz
-
Hair colour fades faster
-
The scalp gets irritated, leading to flakiness or redness
According to studies, excessive UV exposure can reduce hair strength by up to 30% and make it more prone to breakage. Yikes.
🌿 7 Easy Ways to Protect Your Hair from Sun Damage
1. Cover Up – Your Best Friend This Summer
Wearing a hat, scarf or dupatta is one of the simplest and most effective ways to block UV rays. Go for wide-brimmed hats or cotton scarves to keep cool and stylish!
Pro Tip: If you're travelling or driving a two-wheeler, always keep a hair wrap or bandana in your bag.
2. Use Natural, Nourishing Hair Care Products
Skip the harsh shampoos that strip away your natural oils. Choose products with gentle, moisturizing, and scalp-friendly ingredients.
✅ Goli Soda’s Probiotic Shampoo Bars are perfect for summer.
They cleanse your scalp without chemicals, protect your hair microbiome, and contain cooling ingredients like peppermint (for dry hair) that help soothe sun-stressed scalps.
3. Don’t Skip Conditioner
Summer sun dehydrates your hair just like it does your skin. Using a good conditioner helps lock in moisture and protect strands from becoming brittle.
💧 Try Goli Soda’s Probiotic Liquid Hair Conditioner – it’s rich in natural ingredients that hydrate and protect your hair, with the added benefit of probiotics to maintain scalp balance.
4. Let Your Hair Air-Dry
After washing your hair, skip the blow-dryer and let your hair air-dry. Heat + sun is a double whammy, so reducing one helps. You’ll also prevent heat damage and frizz.
5. Stay Hydrated, Eat Hair-Loving Foods
Healthy hair starts from within. Drink plenty of water, and eat foods rich in omega-3, biotin, and antioxidants like flax seeds, nuts, green veggies, and berries.
Fun fact: Dehydration can reduce hair growth by up to 15% — so keep sipping that water!
7. Avoid Chemical Treatments in Summer
Planning to bleach, colour, or smoothen your hair? It’s better to wait till after summer. These treatments make your hair more sensitive to sun damage and increase dryness.
If you must, use colour-safe, sulfate-free products like Goli Soda’s natural bars to maintain hair health.
☀️ Bonus: What About the Scalp?
Your scalp can get damaged too
Look out for signs like:
-
Redness
-
Itching
-
Flaking or dryness
Massage your scalp weekly with a natural cold-pressed oil or a herbal oil, and wash with a probiotic shampoo that won’t strip its natural barrier. Healthy scalp = healthy hair.
