Make sure you follow these sunscreen rules.Not an avid sunscreen wearer? Maybe you should think about changing your skin-protecting ways.

By Carly Cardellino

According to the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer and the most common cancer for 25- to 29-year-olds. And since May is melanoma month, we thought it was fitting to raise awareness of this deadly disease (and prevent getting burned) by asking Debra Jaliman, M.D., a cosmetic dermatologist in NYC and author of Skin Rules: Trade Secrets from a Top New York Dermatologist, for her thoughts on the six sunscreen mistakes (c/o La Roche-Posay) you could be making without even knowing it:

1. You think you're exempt from sunscreen because you have dark or olive skin. "Even with dark skin you can burn and get sun damage. People with blue eyes and fair skin tones are more prone to skin cancer, but we're all susceptible to it. No matter what skin color you are, you're not exempt from skin cancer or from using sunscreen."

2. You don't

After a brief stint as a brunette, Witherspoon returned to her famous golden highlights, joining Barrymore, Hathaway, and Lovato in the trend. If you're considering doing the same, be sure to load up on the deep conditioner afterwards to minimize damage. Brassy tones are the sworn enemy of blonde hair, so to prevent any shifts in shade, incorporate a blue or purple-tinted shampoo and conditioner into your routine. The cool pigments neutralize unexpected orange or yellow shades, and keep your highlights going strong until your next salon appointment. Our favorites are Clairol's Shimmer Lights ($9; sallybeauty.com), Sachajuan's Silver Shampoo ($28; sephora.com), and Rita Hazan's Foaming Color Gloss ($26; ritahazan.com).

Beware: Summer's hottest hairstyle takes more maintenance than you might think.

From the runway to the red carpet, it seems like some of the most stylish girls around are chopping off their hair for summer. Top model Karlie Kloss debuted a short bob backstage at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in November, and just weeks after her win for Best Actress at the Oscars, America's sweetheart Jennifer Lawrence decided to do away with her long locks in favor of a layered shag. Sure, shorter strands might seem like the easiest way to lighten up your look for the season, but beware: this look isn't for everyone.

It won't necessarily keep you cool. Roz gets tons of requests for this crop at Bumble, varying in length from the chin to the collarbone. People tend to think that this cut is a lighter and cooler option for summer, but they often lose sight of the fact that you can't simply put it up. "A lot of girls are used to pulling their hair into a topknot when they get too warm, but with a bob you don't have that luxury," Roz explained.

Reality check - the #1 giveaway of your age isn't your face, it's your hands. Bethenny's skin wizard, Dr. Howard Sobel, says, "Like any other part of the body, the skin on the hands loses its elasticity. The hands are especially affected because of constant exposure to the sun and the environment."

Then there are those gross veins that make fingerless gloves look like a better option every day. "We lose fat in our hands as we age, which makes those blood vessels more noticeable and makes the hands look older."

Even women who take care of their skin often neglect the skin on their hands… but that's where Dr. Sobel's tips come in handy!
