Save your hair from summer bummers

KEEP COLOR TRUE
 
 Problem: Overexposure to the sun's harsh ultraviolet (UV) rays can weaken and fade strands.

• Forbid fading. Look for hair-care products containing UV filters to keep your hair from fading and breaking.
• Leave your hat on. Wear a well-ventilated hat to shield your hair from UV rays whenever you're in the sun.
• Bask in a mask. Apply a deep-conditioning mask to your hair weekly.

Quick tip: If you'll be in the sun all day, comb a deep-conditioning mask through wet hair and twist it into a bun. Let the sun's warmth help your hair absorb the mask.
