T.G.I.F. - Hair Tip!

Breakage, split ends, fried hair, dyed hair, and more this is something that can be very hard to repair .

The good thing is there are remedies to fixing damaged hair:

Damage hair can be turned into healthy hair with proper care and products to aid.


  • Breakage caused by the friction of brush bristles rubbing against the cuticle, you should keep the cuticle smooth and intact by coating damp or dry hair from the mid-shaft to the ends with serum.
  • Split ends this happens when the cuticle at the ends of the hair shaft wears away.  The remedy is to trim and apply a product to the ends.  For instance, glycerin or hyaluronic acid, both bond the ends together.
  • Fried hair if you are using heating tools at 200f, the water inside each hair will start to boil and the hair blisters eventually break.  To repair this set the styling tool to low and use shampoo and conditioner that will hydrate your hair's most fragile spot like the ends.
  • Dyed hair this strip natural pigments and create tears that make hair porous and weak.  The remedy is once a week use a deep conditioner protein treatment to coat the cuticle and fill in the hollow areas.

Breakage!!!!

Hair breakage can be a serious problem whether or not you're trying to attain length. If your hair is breaking off faster than it's growing, it may seem like your hair isn't growing at all. Unless you have a medical condition, your hair is growing, but retaining length is important for seeing this growth.





"Solutions for dry, breaking ends include regular deep conditioning, daily conditioning with moisturizing treatments, using a comb with teeth wide enough to work through your hair (particularly natural hair) and easing up on heat styling."

5 tips to help with breakage....
  • Trim your ends
  • Protein treatment
  • Don't brush your hair while wet
  • Stop Overlapping chemicals
  • Ease up on heat....High heat = damage = breakage. Frequent heat = damage = breakage
