français term

agressions extérieures

Non-PRO français vers anglais Marketing Cosmétiques / produits de beauté Hair care products
What would be the best way of saying this in the jargon of the hair salon?
From the marketing spiel about a hair care lotion:

- Freine la chute, favorise la repousse et protège des agressions extérieures

Any help from those who frequent such establishments would be most useful

external damage

I think this is fairly common.

Although the use of the word "aggressions" appears frequently in skincare and haircare products, this has largely migrated from translations of French, Italian, etc.

"Proteins that protect against hair breakage. Penetrates deeply into the hair cortex. ... Its anti-oxidant activity also protects hair from external damage"

neutral Karen Tkaczyk : I've considered this option in the past but I think it means things like cigarette smoke and pollution too, not just weather. What do you think?

external attacks

I'd ask people who are experts in the cosmetic field rather than people who commonly spend time in beauty salons, if I were you. :)
This phrase is commonly used in the cosmetic industry (protecting hair or skin from exposure to everyday things that can damage them)
