Title: i broke an important sly rule yesterday.
Post by: Ghost1988 on May 02, 2009, 08:43:17 AM: i was at a cookout with some college buddies and i didnt wear any sunscreen on my head cuz im stubborn and have never burned my head before so i thought it couldnt happen to me. that was a HUGE mistake. my head, face, neck,and shoulders are tomato red and im in PAIN! lol. does anyone know how long sunburn on your head lasts? i think im just gonna wear a hat for awhile till it heals to prevent further burning. plus.......the peeling isnt too attractive looking lol.

I went out on the boat about a month ago and I used sunscreen but some how I missed all of my forehead and face they got cooked. It took about a week to go away.

Red means business. I have yet to burn my head, and don't plan on doing it anytime soon. Good luck Ghost ;D

I got tired of smearing sunscreen into my hair to cover the thinning areas so I wouldn't burn. Take care of that head, and get some decent sun screen. ^u!ez

Post by: Medic aka Rocko on May 02, 2009, 06:16:08 PM: Next time, if you didn't learn your lesson, the day you get a sunburn, fill a cup with about 50% vinegar/50% water. Take a rag/bandanna and wet it with the solution and place on the burn for a while (not sure how long, I leave it on a while, rewet, then do it again).

Not scientific, but seems to help. I get a burn every year, and this takes the pain out, and seems to help it heal up faster.

Straight vinegar stings like a beech!

About three or four days in the burn should be gone and you'll be in full peel mode. That's the time for the apricot scrub.... it will remove the dead skin..........
