Plenty of signs may show you’re experiencing hair breakage. If your hair is dry and frizzy and seems impossible to style as a result, you may have split ends or other damage to it. The good news is most of the time simple adjustments to your quality hair care routine can make a huge difference over time in strengthening your hair back to normal. These tips can help you prevent hair breakage so you can enjoy beautiful hair that’s easy to style for any occasion.
Don’t Overwash Your Hair
The number one rule is to always wash your hair with a quality sulfate free shampoo. Using shampoo with sulfate can strip the hair of the natural oils produced, making it dry and more prone to breaking. And even if you use sulfate free shampoo, consider washing your hair every 2-3 days instead of every day. Overwashing your hair can dry it out, which can be particularly harsh if you style it daily. Combining the use of a sulfate free shampoo with a quality conditioner can keep your hair healthy and hydrated.
Be Gentle When Drying or Allow Hair To Air-Dry
Using hair dryers or coarse towels to dry your hair can cause the strands to break also. The best tip is to dab the hair with a cotton t-shirt and allow it to air dry as much as possible. But if you’re in a time crunch and need to style your hair quickly after washing it, consider using a hairdryer on a cool setting so the heat won’t damage the strands. The main idea is to reduce as much friction as possible, since friction is a major reason why hair breaks or slowly becomes dry and brittle. You can also consider investing in a protective hair serum for some added protection in case you need to use heat tools.
Get Regular Haircuts and Ask Your Stylist for Advice
Getting haircuts regularly can get rid of any split ends, which eventually cause your hair to break. People with longer hair tend to experience split ends more than others, so a quick trim frequently will go a long way in keeping your hair looking great at all times. If you’ve seemingly done everything you can think of to stop your hair from breaking and nothing is working after several weeks or months, ask your hairstylist for some advice. They may offer you specific quality hair care products depending on your hair type to help you out.
