What the gurus are saying

This scalp mist contains fragrance and carries a greasy texture, both features dermatologists consistently identify as standard across the entire category. Opinions split on whether these characteristics are acceptable trade-offs for sun protection, with assessments ranging from workable to prohibitive. Anyone with fine or product-sensitive hair should patch-test first to gauge whether the texture suits their needs.

"One I tested out and tried a few years ago was from Kula, and I thought that one was pretty good. It did have fragrance in it, however, as do all sunscreens marketed for scalp that I came across at the time."

"You can certainly try scalp sunscreen. The two brands I've tried are Sun Bum as well as Coola. In general, I tend to find sunscreen for the scalp to be very greasy, so it's one of those things where if you use it, I do recommend washing it off at night just to avoid any buildup that may contribute to inflammation."
