Therefore, in the same way that you protect your skin from exposure to the sun, you must take care of your hair from external aggressions.

- The chlorine in pool water degrades the cuticle and deteriorates the color if you have bleached hair.

- The wind damages the hair fiber and cuticle, causing tangles and breakage.

- The cold makes hair break more easily.
