Why the sun lightens our hair, but darkens our skin
Both hair and skin have Melanin which is a skin pigment that gives the skin its color. More melanin the darker the skin. Melanin also exists in the Iris of the eye. Sun darkens the skin because UV rays trigger the production of melanin thereby making it darker whereas UV rays breakdown melanin in the hair making it lighter.
