How to reduce hair damage...



Almost everyone has suffered from hair damage, be it dry hair, brittle hair, split ends or breakage we have seen it. However in order to fix this it is very important that you understand the root cause of it.


Hair damage occurs when aggressors such as friction, extreme sun exposure, heat and harsh chemical treatments, attack the protective outer layer of your hair called cuticles; leaving cracks in its exterior.


Big question, can you fix damaged hair?


Damaged hair once split or broken cannot be fused backed together. No matter what products you use like leave-in conditioner, treatment masks, split end menders, etc. These products help seal the outer layer of the hair so that it appears smooth, soft and less frayed but they are not a permanent solution. The only proper solution is to trim off damaged hair.


Curly, wavy hair has a higher tendency to get damaged since the curls and bends prevent the scalp’s protective oils from travelling down stands.


Before we dive deep into the solution it is important to understand the extend of the damage on your hair.



While the damage comes in varying degrees, it’s important to nip it in the bud before it splits further and further up the hair shaft, meaning most hair experts would recommend scheduling a trim. However, there are products to treat your damaged hair without making a trip to the salon, such as serums, leave-in conditioners, etc.


This being said it is important to note that your conditioner is your damaged hair's best friend. It helps replenish your hair's outer protective layer by coating it with ingredients like silicone, plant oils such as coconut oil and butters. It works best on wet hair since it is easier to de-tangle which leads to less damage and makes your hair silkier and more manageable.


In order to really prevent hair damage make sure you rinse-off with a conditioner every time after shampooing and use a leave-in conditioner on damp hair. Add a weekly hair mask to your routine. These have higher concentrations of conditioning ingredients, making you hair thick and silky.
