Don't let the summertime REDS get you down

As summer approaches, the cold rainy clouds are beginning to part
and allow the warmer air and sunshine to peak through. Great for your
golf game, bad for your hair system.

Oxidation is a chemical reaction that affects the color hues in your hair anytime oxygen is present and the molecules are exposed to UV light. In other words, anytime you're outside in the sun! This chemical reaction causes damage to the outer layer of the hair shaft, in both human and synthetic hair.

Ok, so oxidation is bad. Now what?

An ounce of prevention = A pound of protection.

Many hair replacement products contain UV protectors to help block most of these harmful rays and some even contain antioxidants to help neutralize the process entirely. Using these products doesn't mean oxidation will never be an issue, but they will help.
