SteveIf your hair is damaged, (from straightening, curling, coloring, etc) it can be very hard to get it healthy again. To do this, you must cut your hair. Get several inches off and get layers & angels. This may not entirely help your hair, but you will see a difference. After you get it cut, you need to take a break from straightening. After a few months, your hair will grow a few inches, so you must get it cut again. Do this until your hair is split-end free! This is a hard process, but you will get a good result!
P.S. My hair was damaged from years of straightening! I was real sad when I had to cut my long hair, but it was well worth it! Now, my hair is healthy and I don't have to worry about split-ends or anything!
Damaged hair can result because of overprocessing, frequent hair color changes and excessive heat. Hard water and the sun also are harsh on the hair. Repairing damaged locks requires proper hair care that will allow the hair follicles--root to tip--the ability to look healthy and beautiful once more.
- Choosing the Right Shampoo and Conditioner
Using the same shampoo and conditioner helps keep the hair in good condition. Changing your regular shampoo or conditioner causes a shock to the hair because of the different ingredients. Sometimes the hair will become brittle as a result of this change. Note which shampoo works best for your hair and continue to use this shampoo. Also, choosing a conditioner with sun block is helpful. It will improve the look of the hair as well as the feel. Sunblock also protects the hair from sun damage.
Individuals with damaged hair should use hair care products that are designed for their type of hair. This is because these products are designed to fix specific hair care problems. Pomade, alcohol-free hairspray and serums are used to moisturize the hair and repair it from root to tip.
A new haircut always gets a nice reaction from friends and family. This is because the hair looks polished and fresh. The longer someone waits to get their haircut, the more damaged the hair becomes. Regular hair trims or cuts makes the hair look healthy all the time and removes split ends.
When the hair is damaged, applying any type of heat to it is a mistake. Whether a blowdryer, curling iron, hair straightener or hot rollers, heat takes any natural oils out of the hair making it look limp. For damaged hair, this results in a even more damaged look. Someone with damaged hair should be hydrating the hair, not any of the remaining moisture away with heat.
If the hair extensions are damaged & synthetic it is not likely they can be repaired if damaged. If the extensions are (quality) human hair, you have to treat them as your own. You can stop colouring them & applying a heat protector & you can deep condition them.
