Blogger:Causes Of Hair Breakage

Blogger: BEAUTY TIPS AND FASHION CLUES - Create post:1.Overstretching the hair-tight banding or tight braiding can overstretch the hair and lead to weakened strands. be sure you are stretching on damp hair instead of wet hair. Lastly, refrain from using rubber bands or any other harmful hair tie (e.g., cotton) during the drying proces

2.Styling on wet or drenched hair-it may be better to wait until the hair is damp or damp-dry to style.

3.Diet low in protein-Hair largely consists of protein (keratin) which is built from amino acids extracted from foods we put into our body. Incorporate more nuts, chicken, fish, and beans into your diet.

4.Use of sulfate shampoos- Certain sulfate shampoos (containing SLS and ALS) can be harsh on the hair thus weakening the strands. Switching to a gentler sulfate shampoo or a natural shampoo can mitigate this issue.

5.Overexposure to sun:-Hair that was overexposed during the summer months can be showing signs of weakness and breakage in the fall/winter months. Trims are the best way to mitigate this problem

6.Sleeping on a cotton pillowcase- Cotton can be both drying and abrasive to the hair. Sleep on a satin/silk pillowcase or use a satin/silk bonnet to put a stop to this breakage source.

7.Unnecessary change of relaxers and hair products-stick to what is best for u

8.Hair Dye-(constant use of hair dye) results in a condition known as split-ends. Ultimately, this results in hair breakage and hair loss.

9.Excessive Combing or Brushing- If you are obsessed with their hair then get out of the habit quickly. Combing / brushing puts pressure on the roots of the hair, resulting in breakage of hair.

10.Styling Tools -tools like blow dryers, flat irons, curling irons, hot rollers, etc will weaken your hair's cuticle. Limit the frequency of usage and minimize the length of time the heat is in contact with your hair. If you are using heating tools excessively make sure to deep condition your hair on a weekly basis.
