It's finally warm in South Africa and as I slather SPF all over my face and skin, I couldn't help but feel that my precious strands need protection as well. Should I try rubbing this thick white cream on my hair? No, ma'am! I knew there had to be a better way, and you know I come to you with the best information I can find.

Certain natural oils provide SPF protection from the sun that rivals any product you could find at your local chemist. It's all natural, great for the hair and safe for the whole family to use. Below I you a list of oils and their various SPF protective ranges.

Red Raspberry Seed Oil - SPF of 28 to 50 (Protects against UVA & UVB rays!)

Carrot Seed Oil - SPF of 38 to 40

Wheatgerm Oil - SPF of 20
