A] Hair damage? What’s that?

If you are suffering from split ends or if your hair looks dry or unlike its former shiny self then you might probably have hair damage. While there are multiple causes to the nightmare that’s hair damage, some of the more common causes that we do come across in our everyday lives are as follows -

1. Too much heat styling

Girls, you must take care of your hair while heat styling! While it’s understandable that you want your hair to look perfectly styled and ready to dazzle, you must also make sure that you don’t overuse your heat styling tools like straighteners, hairdryers, etc., as it may eventually lead to heat damaged hair.

2. Overuse of your hairbrush

Yes, you’ve read it correctly! Too much use of your hairbrush can indeed lead to hair breakage. Hence, you must use your hairbrush gently and only when you need to!

3. Not enough nutrients

That’s right, just like the rest of our body, our hair follicles need nutrients. However, if our body does not acquire the sufficient amount of nutrients for distribution, then the health of our hair is most likely to suffer, as our body puts the more important organs first.

Now that we’ve explored hair damage, let us see the signs of hair damage that you need to look out for!
