UV Protection Treatments - Shield Your Hair from Sun Damage

Living in North Auckland's stunning coastal environment comes with unique challenges for hair health. Our professional UV protection treatments create an invisible shield that protects your hair from harmful sun rays while maintaining color vibrancy and preventing damage. Perfect for surfers, beach lovers, outdoor workers, and anyone spending significant time in the Auckland sun.

Why UV Protection is Essential for North Auckland Hair

New Zealand's intense UV levels, particularly during summer months, can cause significant hair damage. Combined with environmental factors from rural areas like Wainui, and salt spray from coastal areas like Muriwai and Bethells Beach, unprotected hair becomes dry, brittle, and prone to color fading. Our UV protection treatments provide professional-grade defense against these environmental challenges.

  • Protects chemically-treated hair (colored, highlighted, permed)
  • Reduces split ends and breakage from sun exposure
  • Preserves natural moisture balance
  • Ideal preparation for beach days and outdoor activities
  • Lightweight formula that doesn't weigh hair down

Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about our services and booking process.

Why does my hair need UV protection?

UV rays can fade hair color, weaken hair proteins, cause dryness and brittleness, and lead to split ends. UV protection treatments create a barrier that shields your hair from sun damage while maintaining color vibrancy.

How long do UV protection treatments last?

UV protection treatments typically last 4-6 weeks, depending on sun exposure, swimming frequency, and hair washing routine. Regular reapplication ensures continuous protection during high UV exposure periods.

Are UV treatments necessary for colored hair?

Absolutely! Color-treated hair is more vulnerable to UV damage, which can cause rapid fading, color shifts, and dryness. UV protection treatments are essential for maintaining your color investment and hair health.

Can UV treatments protect against chlorine damage too?

Many UV protection treatments also provide a barrier against chlorine and salt water, making them perfect for summer activities. They help prevent the green tinge that can occur in blonde hair and protect against chemical dryness.

What's the difference between UV spray and treatment?

Professional UV treatments penetrate the hair shaft for deep protection and conditioning, while home UV sprays provide surface protection. In-salon treatments offer superior, longer-lasting protection with added hair health benefits.
