Thanks Anais.

I'm not a sun-worshipper by nature, but I swim, kayak, bike, and hike and these activities all increase my sun exposure. I'll try and rock the hat as much as possible! Star

Honestly? Knock yourself out and try it. Smile Just kidding. I wouldn't try the sunscreen idea because it could cause acne on the hairline and the temples, not to mention other kinds of rash if you are sensitive.

Maybe get a chic sun hat or scarf to cover your hair while you're in the sun. I don't think you'll be able to have both (1) a lot of sun exposure and (2) lovely color - just one of the two.

HTH and stay safe

Can anyone suggest a product that will protect color from the fading caused by the sun? I spend a great deal of time at the pool or on the beach in the summer. I love my current color and I don't want it to get too brassy.

I read that mixing regular sunscreen with water and applying to hair via spray bottle works. Has anyone tried this?
