Yes – I know what you're thinking: "If it's cold, the sun isn't strong... why do I have to put on sunscreen and on top of that moisturize as if I were at the beach?"
Well, let me tell you a secret: the winter sun hasn't given you a vacation . And even less so if you're bald, have a receding hairline, or simply the top of your head is exposed (or semi-exposed).
The big mistake: thinking that the sun only burns in summer
Even in November, December or January, ultraviolet (UV) radiation It's still present and can take its toll on the skin. Shall I tell you why?
-
UVA rays penetrate the skin even on cloudy days.
-
Surfaces such as snow or reflective areas multiply that impact: for example, snow can reflect up to 80% of UV rays .
-
Low temperatures, wind, reduced melanin production, or unimpeded exposure (such as when bald) weaken your skin's barrier, dehydrate it, and make it more vulnerable.
-
Sun damage is cumulative: what you do (or don't do) today will show tomorrow. Spots, wrinkles, loss of firmness…
In short: even if you wear a hat or scarf, if your head and face are exposed, you're at risk. And not being in the sun doesn't mean you're not at risk.
And what about bald men? Special attention to the scalp.
Being bald has many advantages : you shower faster, you save on shampoo, and you look more serious. But it also means one thing: your scalp is completely exposed. Without natural protection. To the sun, the wind, the cold… to everything.
And even if you don't notice it at the time, constant exposure can cause irritation, extreme dryness, blemishes, and premature aging . Basically, what's known as "not having slept in three months."
That's why sun protection for bald men should be part of your daily winter routine, just like putting on a coat or checking if you have your phone. And it's not enough to just protect: you also need to moisturize.
Protection + hydration: the formula that really works
Skincare isn't a matter of luck, it's a matter of strategy. In winter, the winning combination is this:
-
Protect yourself : because UVA rays continue to act every time you go outside.
-
Hydrate : because the cold, wind and heating punish the skin more than it seems.
And this is where many people go wrong: they think that a little cream once a week is all it takes. But the key is consistency and using products designed for your skin type, your age, and, yes, your bald head.
If you want real results, you need to moisturize your skin in winter as part of your daily routine. And not just any moisturizer, but a good moisturizer for mature men's skin , one that provides what your skin needs: nourishment, elasticity, and zero oil.
