Since the late 2010s, there has been huge growth in the skincare industry, and subsequently an increased interest in the importance of SPF. With summer in full swing, so is SPF application, especially as many of us are travelling abroad for days by the pool or at the beach, or simply soaking up some rays in our gardens (thank you, English heatwave).
- Two in five women say their hair is always more damaged in summer
- Pantene’s Pro-V Sunkiss Glow Hair Spray is designed to protect against UV, chlorine and salt damage
- Infused with Pro-Vitamin B5 and Vitamin E, it is said to intensely nourish and repair hair
Whilst we’ve all got the latest SPF creams, facial sprays and lip balms, there might be one area we’re forgetting: our hair. According to new Pantene research, an impressive 76% of women protect their skin regularly, but only 38% do the same for their hair. It’s a sad state of affairs for our tresses.
As someone who loves spending as much time in water as possible on holiday, I often suffer from dryness and brittle ends from the excessive chlorine and salt water. So, this year, I’m using Pantene’s Sunkiss Glow leave-in spray treatment. My first impressions were that it’s no fuss, no frills – just a few spritzes on wet or dry hair and my tresses feel moisturised, soft and, better yet, smell amazing.
Formulated heavily with biotin, recognised for stimulating the production of keratin, I can definitely feel how it smooths and strengthens my strands individually. Other key ingredients include skincare-favourites niacinamide and caffeine, which encourage healthy hair growth; finger's crossed I see this long-term benefit too.
- Leave-in formula that smooths the hair cuticle
- Infused with Pro-Vitamin B5 and Vitamin E
- Protects hair from UVA, UVB, salt and chlorine
I was shocked to learn, according to the haircare brand's research, that nearly four in 10 women say they feel forced to choose between enjoying summer activities and maintaining healthy hair. Thanks to this spray, now they don’t need to. I like to spray it on before heading out into the sun, topping myself up throughout the day, especially after being in water.
Dr Cedric Callens, Pantene Scientific Communications Lead, says: “Hair damage rarely occurs as the result of a single event. During summer, it's the repeated exposure to multiple stressors that can gradually affect the hair fibre over time, contributing to moisture loss, increased cuticle disruption and hair that feels rougher, drier and more difficult to manage."
What do verified shoppers say about Pantene’s Pro-V Sunkiss Glow Hair Spray?
Clearly I’m not the only one loving this protective powerhouse. One verified shopper raved: “I used this on holiday in Turkey for two weeks straight and my hair has never felt better.” A second was impressed with the visible effects and said: “It smells divine and makes my colour pop!”
This easy to use treatment has situated itself seamlessly into my summer routine, giving me the confidence to enjoy sun and swimming without worrying about my hair health. And now is the perfect time to get your hands on it too, with 50% off when you buy three selected Pantene products at Boots.
