We are talking about the scalp. In fact, our scalp is one of the least considered areas when it comes to prevention. Many laymen think that hair provides natural protection from the sun’s rays and that for this there is no need to pay too much attention. Instead, even this portion of our head, as well as getting burned, can develop malignant and problematic pathologies to be treated.

This also applies to the scalp. In fact, there are specific products that do not weigh down the hair too much. We are talking about particular formats, such as protective gels or sticks.
