Hair repair
|
The condition of the hair depends on its length, genetic makeup, chemical procedures, environment, styling and care habits. Proteins, lipids and moisture play a vital role in maintaining healthy hair. The more damaged the hair, the more all three conditioning elements have to be replenished. Moisturizing/conditioning is the most important step for maintaining healthy, shiny hair, especially if hair is chemically-treated.
Open AllClose All
- What causes hair breakage?
- Depending on genetic make up, some people's hair may show signs of wear and tear and eventually have breakage at shoulder length while some people's hair may grow much longer without a problem. Poor hair care habits, careless use of hot dryers and irons and/or chemical processes speed the downward spiral.
- How can breakage be prevented?
- As nutrition and exercise contribute to a healthier body, good hair care habits can keep the integrity and beauty of the hair beyond its naturally healthy life span. Good habits include careful use of styling tools and protective measures during chemical services, gentle brushing and combing, using mild shampoos and protecting the more fragile ends during the shampoo process. Always protect hair from overexposure to sun, wind, salt and chlorine water by covering up and by using protective emulsions or creams with sun filters.
