Look for hair serums or leave-in sprays with SPF or UV filters. They form a protective layer that helps keep moisture in and sun damage out.

Leaving your hair open exposes a larger surface to the sun. Try loose braids or buns to reduce exposure and keep your hair safe from wind and sun-induced tangles.

Sun exposure can strip your hair of natural oils. A weekly deep-conditioning session using a hydrating hair mask or curd-honey mix can restore moisture and repair damage.
