Where is your hair breaking?

Is it at the ends, the midshaft, or at the root of your hair? Is it around you hairline?

Could she have some hair breakage? YES!

Ends…

If it’s at the ends, perhaps you have not had a hair cut in over 6 weeks. Get a haircut and a moisture treatment and then condition your hair appropriately at home. Condition from midshaft through the ends. Rinse only for 10-15 seconds. Always blow dry at the scalp first before even attempting to dry the ends.

Midshaft….

If your hair is breaking at the midshaft, perhaps you went through some severe stress or… Do you wear ponytails alot? The stress from the band on your tail could cause hairs to break.

Scalp….

Lastly, is your hair breaking at the scalp? Again, personal stress could be the culprit. Poorly applied hair color or lightner could stress the hair. Also if you are drying your hair with a high powered T3 type dryer, concentrating the nozzle in one area could cause extreme bleaching and weakening of the hair. I did it to my own hair and I am a professional. Be extremely careful!

If you have hairline breakage, that hair tends to be finer, thus perhaps weaker and maybe the type of brush and dryer you use are too strong for that hair. Sometimes using a fine boar bristle brush and low heat and air strength is the best for the hair line.

Other recommendations……

Don’t shampoo your hair every day. If you must try this…Get a shower cap. In the morning, before you get into the shower dampen your hands from the shower rub them in your hair (where you have bed head) put on the cap. The heat while you shower and the moisture from inside the shower cap will reinvigorate your hair. Then, when you go to rearrange your style the hair will respond almost like you had just washed it.

As far as a styling product for stressed out hair ends, apply a serum to the ends. 3 pumps into the palm of your

All long or short ends need moisture reinforcement!

hand while the hair is wet, 2 pumps prior to ironing your hair and 1 pump to protect the ends from our drying environment.

Hope this helps
