Always Wear a Beach Hat

If you are a girl, you know that we like easy summer hairstyles that give off a casual, summer vibe, but we need to make sure to protect our hair at the same time. Beach hats are an important preventative measure against harmful sun rays and the easiest and safest way to protect your hair. 
As many national and international health authorities have assessed, continuous exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun can cause harmful effects on the skin, hair, eyes and immune system. To reduce these risks, you can choose high-quality beach hats that provide shade to your head, face, ears and neck.

A broad-brimmed or bucket hat with a wide brim as well as a legionnaire style hat is a good choice to ensure the most protection. They are stylish and useful addition that provides direct protection to different areas of the head, face, ears and neck, however, the amount of protection can vary significantly depending upon the type of hat and the design.

A broad-brimmed hat is one of the best choices for shading more of the facial areas than other types of hats. Additionally, it can help you step up your beach look by giving you a chic appearance under the sun. 
The material the hat is made of is important as well. Most of the materials used in hats provide excellent protection against UV radiation as they naturally block or absorb it. Also, the material should provide comfort and allow air circulation, so you can enjoy your time at the beach even more.

Hats can be a helpful addition for sun protection, but they can’t provide sufficient protection on their own, so it’s always a good idea to combine them with other sun-protective measures to ensure full protection.

Spending long hours in the sun without proper eye protection can increase the chances of developing certain eye diseases, but the technology behind modern lenses in sunglasses has advanced significantly, so now you can find replacement lenses and keep your favourite sunnies for longer.
