Upon returning to London, I tried everything I could to reset my hair and restore its former colour, from home-made coconut and avocado masks, to the potent purple shampoo that dyed my hands a vibrant shade of violet (but incidentally did nothing to correct my orange-toned strands). Eventually I bit the bullet and booked in with my hairdresser for a professional tone and a series of bond building treatments that repaired and strengthen my sun-damaged lengths from the inside out.

Raised cuticles also means weaker defences against the sun, which is not ideal. In need of a lightweight, water-resistant, UV defence mist? Let us direct you towards Aveda's Sun Care Protective Hair Veil. As a beauty editor, I’m the first to admit that I should have known better than to let my bleached hair take such a hit of sunshine without any form of protection. According to the Fulham Scalp & Hair Clinic, ‘Exposure to UVA radiation results in colour changes in the hair, and UVB radiation is responsible for the loss of hair protein, primarily keratin. While melanin pigments offer some protection, UV rays can break these down, too, reducing their protective function.’ Yikes.

Milky oils are a lot of fun and you'll often find this sort of consistency in bath oils and face cleansers because they start off with the classic oil texture before transforming into a milky lather. But, with a little due diligence and some good products, you can make sure your strands stay hydrated, strong and healthy which will circumnavigate frizz and pesky flyaways that are the result of split ends and damage. Of course, this protects against UVA/UVB rays but it also leaves hair feeling soft, healthy and shiny too. Aveda Sun Care Protective Hair Veil also contains a light tropical aroma blend of 100% certified organic essences of neroli, ylang ylang and wild-crafted cistus. Others come in the form of creams, masks and serums and work just like your regular face SPF by creating a barrier against the sun's seriously unsociable UVA and UVB rays.
