No matter how hard you try, your hair may still be damaged. We do a lot of things every day that damage our hair, like heat styling, bleaching, and picking at split ends.
Hair damage is a real bummer, but no matter your hair type, there are many hair care products that can help repair damage and achieve healthy hair.
Our shopping experts have rounded up the best hair care to reverse and prevent damage.
What causes hair damage?
First, according to experts, hair damage occurs when the cuticle (outer layer of hair) is structured.
There are several reasons why this happens.
You may be using too much heat when styling your hair or using hair color or bleach regularly. Perhaps you like to wear tight hairstyles that require an elastic headband, such as a slicked back bun or ponytail (I’m personally guilty of this) .
Sleeping with wet hair can damage your hair.
Damaged hair often appears in the form of split ends or stubborn hairs on the scalp that refuse to grow and be tamed. Brittle and dry hair without shine is also a common sign and is usually caused by a lack of moisture and hydration.
Unfortunately, hair damage can also lead to hair loss.
