How To Protect Your Scalp From The Sun And Pollution

Being bald is extremely convenient - no more bedhead, no more combing, no need to be worried about white hair! But this also means that you’ve got to pay more attention to keep your scalp healthy and ensure it doesn’t turn red due to sun exposure. The blushing should happen on the cheeks, not on the scalp!

Don’t worry though. By following a few simple tips you can protect your scalp from the sun and pollution while keeping it clean and shiny.

1. Sunscreen Is Your Buddy

This goes without saying, you can’t be walking around without layering your skin with appropriate sunscreen. Gentlemen, we will just repeat it: You need to apply sunscreen for proper sun protection. Exposed scalps are even more sensitive compared to the skin in the other areas of your body.

So get a sunscreen that’s at least SPF 30, lightweight, and non-greasy. Worry not our readers, you won’t have to bang your head about finding the product because we have made it for you! Use Glaze, it’s our SPF 30 sunscreen for men that’ll also function as a moisturizer. It’ll protect your scalp from the sun and pollution, and keep it hydrated at the same time.

2. Shade Your Head

If you were not a fan of hats before, you will be now. Yeah, it’s not exactly a choice (it is, we’re just playing). But hey, hats are not bad; they might make you look a lot cooler. You get scalp protection from sun, dust, and pollution, and you might even end up making a fashion statement.

Choose any hat that catches your eye - the fedora, the homburg (stylish cousin of fedora), or maybe you’d prefer a simple baseball cap. Anything that’ll cover your head is good to go. Carry the hats with you in your bag or whatever briefcase you travel with. 

3. Hydrate To Feel Great

Paint this in red - ‘Hydration Is Nutrition’. If you’re out there showing off your shaved head with style, you need to take care of it too. When your skin is moisturized, it’s more nourished, smooth, and flexible. A moisturizer for scalp will also help you maintain a balance in the natural production of oils on the scalp.

All in all, moisturization is good for your scalp health and it’ll protect you from the bad guys a.k.a. UV rays of the sun and pollution. Our product, Glaze, will do this for you. Apply a little bit of it and you are good to go.

While you’re doing so much on the outside, you should also drink a little H2O to maintain your scalp health from the inside. Drinking enough water and including a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals will go a long way.

Summing Up

Bald is Bold! You’ve decided to take that brave step and own your look. All you need now is proper scalp care in addition to that confidence. With the right products and little effort, you’ll keep your scalp healthy and smooth. Hopefully, we’ve not complicated the steps for you. So grab that hat, buy the SPF and moisturizer, and get ready to shine!
