Which are the best after sun hair products?

If there's one thing you don't forget to pack this summer 2019, make it an after sun hair product...

Why do I need an after sun haircare routine?

After sun hair products are designed to remove a build-up of impurities from the hair that wouldn't usually be there such as salt water, SPF and chlorine.

Enriched with nourishing extracts and strengthening ingredients, they help to re-condition the hair post sun-exposure for beautifully healthy and vibrant results.

From shampoos and conditioners to masks and oils, there is a variety of different after sun hair treatments to suit your hair type; discover our edit of the best below.

RRP: £21.00Current price: £10.50

The multi-tasking Solaris Sun Oil from System Professional works in a number of ways to protect your hair against UV damage caused by the sun. First up, it can be used pre-sun exposure as it combines UV filters to shield against colour fading. People with chemically-treated or coloured hair should be using this everyday in the sunshine to keep colour vibrant and fresher for longer. Secondly, it can be used as a blow-drying mist after a day in the sun to smooth and reduce frizz as it contains a blend of luxurious oils to soften and hydrate. Finally, for an extra boost of moisture, mix in with your conditioner for a super soft hair feeling post cleansing.

4. Aveda Sun Care After Sun Hair & Body Cleanser 250ml

Looking to streamline your suitcase? Pack this After Sun Hair & Body Cleanser from Aveda which works to not only keep your hair in beautiful condition on holiday, but also take great care of your delicate skin. Removing chlorine and salt water build-up from both the hair and skin, the cleanser also helps to uplift your senses thanks to its energising essential oil blend of organic neroli, cistus and ylang ylang (perfect for after a day in the sunshine). Rich in super-moisturising botanicals such as coconut, sunflower and tamanu oils, alongside Vitamin E, the cleanser also helps to rehydrate and leave both the skin and hair beautifully soft and smooth. Looking for an extra nourishing moisture boost? Try the Aveda After Sun Hair Treatment Masque - it's the perfect antidote for super stressed-out hair.

5. Wella Professionals Invigo After Sun Cleansing Shampoo 250ml

Looking for a way to gently cleanse away all summer impurities without disrupting the balance of your hair? Try the Wella Professionals INVIGO After Sun Cleansing Shampoo. The formula is infused with pro-Vitamin B5, which helps to really nourish and rehydrate parched locks; perfect for after a day at the beach or by the pool. Furthermore, it helps to protect hair against damage or oxidisation from the sun, meaning your colour will shine brighter and have long-term vibrancy. Use in conjuction with the brand's INVIGO After Sun Express Conditioner for the best results.

6. TIGI Bed Head Totally Beachin Mellow After-Sun Conditioner 200ml

For a sweet-treat treatment after a day in the sun, try the TIGI Bed Head Totally Beachin' Mellow After-Sun Conditioner. Infused with a gorgeously delectable mango and tangerine fragrance, the conditioner works to replenish lost moisture in sun-drenched tresses.

Despite its balmy texture, the conditioner doesn't weigh the hair down and instead leaves locks beautifully light yet hydrated.
