New! The Hair Protection Serum for the summer of your life
This product was created at Henna Morena, guided by the premise that we owe a lot to the sea, and sometimes we do not thank it enough. Because how many products do we use aware that our hair needs extra care, but without really thinking about what those products may be doing to our oceans? Thanks to our formulation of highly biodegradable ingredients, that footprint now has its days numbered.
We want to enjoy the summer, keep our hair from suffering, but also protect our sea. Let us tell you all the benefits of this new product that has completely won us over.
The effects of summer...
We have no doubts that, with good weather and during the summer season, our hair remains exposed for longer periods to multiple external aggressions that can compromise its health, hydration, and appearance. The combination of sun, high temperatures, wind, chlorine, and salt water promotes the loss of natural moisture in the hair, weakening its structure and leaving it more vulnerable to dryness, frizz, and breakage.
Its protective action is key to helping preserve hydration and maintaining the hair fiber in optimal condition against factors such as:
- Prolonged sun exposure: Continuous exposure to UV rays can damage the keratin and natural lipids that protect the hair fiber. As a result, hair loses shine, elasticity, and softness, and color oxidation may increase.
- Chlorinated pool water: Chlorine removes part of the hair’s natural protective film, leading to dehydration and increased roughness. Frequent exposure can also make hair more porous and prone to mechanical damage.
- Sea salt: Salt absorbs the moisture present in the hair fiber, causing increased dryness, frizz, and loss of flexibility. After repeated exposure, ends may become more brittle and prone to splitting.
- High temperatures and wind: Heat accelerates water evaporation from the hair, while wind increases friction between hair fibers, leading to tangles, fragility, and cuticle wear.
During summer, these factors often act simultaneously, multiplying their effects on the hair. Sun radiation weakens the hair structure, chlorine and salt reduce hydration levels, and environmental heat accelerates water loss from the fiber. As a result, hair may appear drier, duller, rough to the touch, and harder to manage.
Therefore, incorporating products such as our new Protective Hair Serum, with protective and repairing action, helps reinforce the natural barrier of the hair fiber, maintain hydration for longer, and reduce the impact of external aggressions. The result is softer, shinier, stronger hair that looks visibly healthier even under the most demanding conditions.
New Protective Hair Serum: a shield for protection and repair of the hair fiber
This product with protective and repairing effect has been developed to accompany the hair in all these situations, acting as a continuous reinforcement for the hair fiber.
Its formula with Galacteane and Marine Keratin works in a complementary way:
1. It forms a protective barrier on the hair cuticle.
2. It strengthens the internal structure of the hair from within.
3. It helps repair accumulated micro-damage in the fiber.
4. It fills weakened areas, improving uniformity.
5. It provides elasticity, strength, and cohesion to the hair strand.
A formula with highly biodegradable ingredients
In addition to its hair-care effectiveness, the formula incorporates highly biodegradable ingredients, aligning with a more conscious and environmentally responsible approach.
Galacteane
A complex of red algae extracts, specially formulated to act as a conditioning and protective agent for the hair fiber against external aggressions. It improves the cohesion of the cuticle scales, helping hair surfaces remain more aligned and smooth, and reduces the direct penetration of external agents such as mineral salts or chlorine compounds that are harsh on the fiber.
Marine Keratin
A hydrolyzed soluble keratin inspired by marine sources that integrates with hair proteins, forming a protective film on the hair surface. It seals the cuticle and reduces moisture loss, improving resistance to dryness and surface damage. It also enhances manageability, makes detangling easier, and reduces frizz formation.
At Henna Morena, as we have already shared, the sea is a constant source of inspiration. Its strength, balance, and regenerative power are part of our philosophy. Therefore, in addition to benefiting from what it offers us, we believe it is important to give back the same respect through more responsible formulas committed to the marine environment.
Apply from mid-lengths to ends on dry or slightly damp hair before exposure to the sea, sun, or pool. Reapply after swimming to maintain protection. No rinsing required.
Application method for optimal protection
For best results, apply the product from mid-lengths to ends on dry or slightly damp hair before sun exposure, swimming in the sea, or going to the pool. This pre-application helps create a protective film around the hair fiber, reducing the impact of external aggressions and helping preserve the hair’s natural moisture.
Mid-lengths and ends are the most vulnerable areas during summer, as they have less natural protection and are more exposed to dryness, loss of elasticity, and split ends. For this reason, it is especially important to focus application on these areas.
After each swim, whether in the sea or in a pool, it is advisable to reapply the product to maintain its protective effect. Continuous exposure to salt, chlorine, and sunlight can gradually reduce the effectiveness of the initial protection, so reapplication helps preserve hydration and a healthy hair appearance throughout the day.
Its leave-in formula allows for quick and convenient use, with no rinsing required and no disruption to your usual hair-care routine. Hair remains protected, softer to the touch, and visibly shinier and well cared for even after long sun exposure.
