Title: SunBurn
Post by: kodakjlowe117 on February 13, 2007, 05:26:54 PM

Hey guys, I live in Phoenix where you can easily get sunburned even in the winter time.  And the summers, ...well you can imagine. What sunscreens would you reccomend for a SENSITIVE bare head?  Thanks!!

Welcome J!

I lived in Phoenix a bit and had a really good time.  If you're looking for a daily lotion with SPF to wear, you can check out Matte For Men.  If you're looking for a great sun block, try the Coppertone Sport 50.

Bet it's not snowing in Phoenix...

Oh Hi Kodak!  I'd definitely say SPF 45 or higher in the Arizona sunshine...

Welcome to the group, J!  I lived outside of Phoenix for many years and like Tyler loved it.  I always liked the coppertone sport. but i also heard good things about the headblade stuff.

I live in Phoenix as well.  I recommend the HeadBlade stuff.  Reason: IT DOES NOT CLOG YOUR PORES.  the SPF 15 is strong enough that your head is protected, while you are still allowed to get some color.  Depends on how much time you spend in the Sun.  If your out for a day of it, the Coppertone stuff might be best, but chillin' on a boat in Havasu for two hours, I would use the headblade stuff.  Peace

I live in Florida so I know about the heat.... have you tried anything formulated for children??  Kids skin is very sensitive and the SPF's are pretty high so you should be well covered. 

I use my son's its and SPF 44, waterproof, versatile enough for when I'm boating or cutting the lawn..
It's made by "OMBRELLE"

See attached for a pic... It works GREAT!!
