5 Signs of Damaged Hair

Some people wanted to know exactly what damaged hair looked like, and honestly, it can look different for different people. However, most of the signs are pretty common.

Dry Hair Is your hair and scalp dry and brittle? Dry hair can lead to breakage as well as rough hair. To combat dry hair moisturize and seal your hair often.

Frizz Frizz occurs when the outer most layer of the hair, the cuticle, does not lie flat. While rinsing out your conditioner try using a bit of cool water to close the cuticle and allow the layers to lie flat.

Noticeable Breakage Breakage happens from everyday styling of our hair rubbing against our clothing and other things. Protective styling is a great way to prevent breakage.

Breaking Point A lot of time our clothing is to blame for hair breakage. Wearing big scarves or even hats can cause friction and cause breakage. Wearing your hair off of your shoulders and moisturizing often will help you get past that breaking point.

Lack of Elasticity This is when you pull, comb or manipulate your hair in any way and it does not snap back into place as it once was. Meaning you have no shrinkage. If there is no shrinkage, you either have a very loose texture or your once curly hair is now straight.
