I've been thinking about natural sun protection too because I hate all those chemicals. Aloe Vera is really for after the sun, but I think it's good for protection too. I like using oils, but be careful because oild help you to tan naturally (give you that honey colour 😁).
I found this post that I did a few years ago on Hive. I use to drink this all the time to stay hydrated in the Philippines. Lemon, Cucumber, and Kiwi... with lots of health benefits.

My hair is naturally fragile, and I do colour and mess it up sometimes. However, rosemary is great for strengthening and growth. I honestly think that oil suits coarser hair kinds like mine, for leaving in. However, it could be a great treatment for your hair as a conditioner under a cap and then washing it out.
I desperately want to apply a colour to my hair, but I think that if I should do it now, I'll end up with a bald head, looking like a dried coconut. 🤣
I read somewhere carrotseed oil has a higher SPF level than coconut...though I've yet to try it myself. :)
I've been having a go at natural hair-coloring brands ( plant-based stuff) but it doesn't seem to do much other than a maybe tint in that direction.
Thanks for that link! Hope you're having a great week!
Yes, I've been having a lovely week. It's overcast this morning, but it might brighten up.
Plant-based hair colouring doesn't take effect on my hair. They probably make it darker. For your hair, rinsing it with a camomile infusion might help the colour, and rosemary-infused water would strengthen it and help to bring out the best of your natural hair colour.
I'll look into carrotseed oil and see what they say about it:))
Thanks so much for the tips! I can't wait to try them out! I'm glad you're having a good time!
