Using hair dryer, hair straightener, sun exposure, daily brushing, all these things lead to hair damage. If you already damaged your hair, don’t worry, because following a strict routine of care, your hair can regain its brilliance and health!
1. Protect your hair against sunlight exposure
Every time you expose yourself to the sun, you use a sunblock cream for your skin, don’t you? Why would hair make an exception to this treatment? Experts say that one of the main factors that lead to damaged hair and discoloration is exposure to sunlight. Although we are more exposed during summer, don’t forget that the sun shines – even if not at the same intensity – all year long, so using a spray that protects you from UV rays is more than necessary. Also, applying a treatment designed to hydrate your hair in depth is another thing hairstylists recommend after a few days at the beach.
2. Say goodbye to the hair dryer
And not just to the hair dryer, but to any instrument involving the use of heat directly on your hair. Try to dry your hair naturally and stay away from the hair straightener or curler, even for a while. If you don’t manage to straighten your hair without their help, then use a leave-in conditioner and a spray with thermal protection before using them.
3. Use a hot oil treatment
Not only that such a treatment leaves your hair moisturized and brilliant, but it’s also extremely easy and quick to apply it. Before you wash your hair, prepare a mask of coconut, argan and olive oil. Heat the three oils and apply them on dry hair. Let the mask act for two hours and wrap your hair in a warm towel. Repeat the procedure once a week, and you will notice a significant improvement.
4. Apply conditioner and mask after each wash
Simply shampooing is not enough, so you should use balsam and masks. However, you have to be careful when you choose products and make sure they don’t contain synthetic materials such as sulphates, silicones or parabens. Just choose the natural ones that are specifically designed for the problems your hair.
5. Cut your hair regularly
If you are not ready to make a radical change and adopt a bob or pixie haircut, then cutting the tips of the hair is the perfect option to get rid of degraded hair and get a healthy look. Try to cut it every six or eight weeks, and not only will you get rid of split hairs, but you will also stimulate faster hair growth. At the same time, you will notice that your hair will gain volume and will be much easier to stylize.
Apply these steps and you won’t have damaged hair anymore.
