Problems with damaged hair?
The symptoms of damaged hair are always the same: hair tends to matt after each wash and it is very difficult, if not impossible, to comb it; to the touch the hair is bristly and rough; sensitivity in hair to moisture is significantly increased; the shine of the hair is not satisfactory and also the durability of the hairstyle leaves much to be desired.
What are the Causes?
The damage caused to the hair can have many causes and very often several factors contribute together. The basis for hair damage lies in the stresses, i.e. due to:
- of the daily hair care of the action of the comb and the brush
- washing with consequent friction
- environmental influences from the sun's UV rays, wind, humidity,
- chemical treatments carried out in an unprofessional way;
use of poor quality tools , such as combs, brushes, corrugating irons, etc.;
- hair ornaments , clips, hairpieces of poor quality; errors in treatments performed at home.
- One of the biggest enemies of hair is heat : hair dryers, flat irons and curling tongs are certainly precious for a dream style, but their excessive or, worse, incorrect use can lead to unpleasant results both for the health of the hair fiber and for the appearance of the hair. hair. In fact, too high temperatures dehydrate the hair causing a thinning of the stem, in a nutshell the hair becomes weak, frizzy and unruly.
What tools to use?
When styling, use wooden combs and brushes with natural bristles because steel or aluminum brushes get hot and tend to burn the fibres. Furthermore, always protect them with a thermal protector .
The choice of styling tools is important. Always prefer an ion hair dryer which will allow you to dry your hair quickly and therefore reduce the consequences of high temperatures.
Which styling products do you prefer?
As far as styling products are concerned, it should be remembered that in damaged hair the cuticle is less closed, the scales of the hair are raised and the fixing substances can therefore penetrate the hair more easily (sponge effect). The fixing effect is much stronger than in normal hair. So the product for styling must not be too strong otherwise the hair is woody, like glued and it is very difficult to comb or brush hair of this kind.
A consequence of damaged hair is split ends , meaning ends that break apart (split). When hair grows longer over time, it undergoes a natural wear process. This is a consequence of continuous mechanical influences (stresses). These include: operations for daily care, i.e. the action of the comb and brush; periodic washing, rubbing and drying of hair; weather influences, the sun, wind and humidity. For this reason, the first signs of wear appear in the scaly layer. The edges of the scales wear away, become jagged and crack. In this way the protective layer of the hair is partially lost. Also in this case the maxim “better safe than sorry” applies. Prevention systems start from the practice of daily care by combing and brushing the hair.
It is wrong to vigorously brush your hair, just as it is equally wrong to underestimate the choice of good quality combs and brushes.
As far as cleaning products are concerned, we have several quality products. for periodic washing you should always choose the best! Incidentally, a particularly gentle shampoo chosen according to the structure of the hair certainly prevents wear and tear of the scaly layer! so it also fights split ends. The use of a good professional revitalizing product after washing safely prevents damage to the hair. You shouldn't resort to these products when it's already too late. What effect does the constant use of a revitalizing product have? Thanks to the revitalizing effect and the consequent smoothing action on the hair surface, the rubbing effect is greatly reduced. If you don't have to deal with hair that tends to get greasy easily, you can also simply use a good hair cream .
During the summer sun protection is very important, in fact when the hair is exposed to the sun's rays, more precisely to UV rays, the cysteine bridges are also partially attacked and this causes damage to the structure and the hair.
If you pay attention to all these precautions and want to continue to keep your hair healthy and shiny, nourish it with a mask at least once a week. The one with shea butter that leaves the hair very soft, or the one with linseed oil that smoothes and softens the hair fiber from roots to ends is excellent.
If, on the other hand, you are looking for a treatment that restores your damaged hair to its splendor, you can resort to products that repair the hair structure and protect it from future treatments (such as Olaplex ).
