Sunburn
Saturday I went to the local carnival, it was a hot day so as always I used plenty of sun protection, I actually use factor 50This morning I washed my hair, and when I came to blow dry it, it was very sore and the heat of the hair dryer was uncomfortable, it wasn't till 5 minutes ago when I came out the shower and brushed my hair all my scalp is red and it could only be sunburnt ! anyone else ever had there scalp burnt with the sun.
Suppose my hair is getting thinner with age

TessA, that is very true. I read that even the burns hospital in London use it. It is instantly soothing and cooling isn't it.
Not sure how you'd rub it in your scalp though, unless you shaved your head first.
I keep several Aloe plants in the house and I just snap a leaf off and use the fresh gel if I need it.
I drink 50-60ml of Aloe juice every morning too. NOT from my plants though - its bought stuff.
Shirley, it also helps cool insect bites, I forgot to say earlier.

Tess, the reason I am laughing is it sounded as if you spray so robustly, you need your hat for a shield.
