Hair Breakage And How To Prevent It

Due to its molecular structure and small quantity of protective oils, natural hair tends to be dryer and have rough texture compared to other hair types, which is why natural hair is prone to hair breakage and damage. And we all know for a fact that most of naturalistas experienced it. 

When the shafts of your hair break, resulting in split ends and shorter hair strands, it is known as hair breakage. Hair breakage usually occurs due to a dry scalp and damaged hair.

If you notice uncontrollable frizz, dryness, and split ends, you are probably experiencing hair breakage. Hair breakage is largely caused by the mishandling of your hair, like excess use of chemical products, heat styling tools, using the wrong hairbrush, etc.

It’s not that having a good hair day is easy, but dry and damaged hair just makes it all the more difficult to achieve. If you are wondering how to stop hair breakage, the answer is simple. Try the natural home remedies listed below to get your hair back to its healthy form and make it soft and lustrous.

 

Causes Of Hair Breakage

Lack of Moisture

Unusually dry hair is one of the precursors to damage and breakage. It’s also caused by a variety of factors, including dry weather, low humidity, and too much heat. Be sure you use warm and not hot water when you wash your hair — the latter leads to further drying. If your ends are dry, consider concentrating shampoo on your scalp only. Use Glammednaturalyoil Biotin Shampoo it doesn't have any harmful chemicals that strip off your hair natural oil keeping it moisturized.

Skipping conditioner is also a no-no. Use  If you’re pressed for time, spritz on some water with a conditioner before combing wet hair. Try Glammednaturallyoil Biotin Conditioner 

 

Heat styling and blow-drying your hair

The perks of being natural is having very versatile hair. You can pretty style it the way you wanted. However, using hair tools like blow dryers, heat curlers and straighteners incorrectly or too much, damage your hair cuticle because of  extreme temperatures.

One way to prevent overall heat damage is to give your strands a break from all styling tools. To reduce the actual heat damage from your styling tools, select ceramic versions — these heat up more evenly so you don’t have to keep using them on the same sections of hair repeatedly. It’s also important to protect your hair before you apply the heat.

 

 Lack of hair trims

It may seem like cutting your hair can damage it. Ironically though, hair trims help keep your hair healthy and free of split ends. You can think of a hair trim like you would exfoliate for skin — in both instances, you need to remove some of the old cells to help new ones grow. When you have split ends, these splits in the cuticle can travel up the rest of the length of your hair and lead to breakage.

See your stylist at least every eight weeks. Even if you’re growing out your hair, trimming damaged ends can prevent further breakage.

 

Wrong Diet

There’s actually a lot to the old saying “you are what you eat,” especially when it comes to hair and skin health. Certain nutrients help your hair grow and stave off breakage from damage. Make sure you’re getting enough zinc, iron, and folic acid in your daily diet. Adequate protein and antioxidants (found in plant foods) can also keep your hair damage-free

 

Improper towel drying

When you step out of the shower, it’s a natural response to rub a towel on your skin and hair. However, this rubbing motion actually damages your hair when it’s most vulnerable (after being wet). Instead of rubbing water out of your hair, blot an absorbent towel around your hair instead. You can also leave a towel in your hair as a temporary measure to absorb excess water.

 

Stress

There’s a multitude of evidence showing links between stress and hair loss, but it’s also known that stress can lead to hair breakage. Telogen effluvium is the type of stress most likely linked to hair damage. This type of stress makes your follicles go dormant, so hair that’s in the middle of a growth cycle may break off. You might notice old hair fall out, too. Managing your stress may result in healthier hair.

 

Trichorrhexis nodosa (TN)

Trichorrhexis nodosa (TN) is a common disorder characterized by hair breakage due to weak points in the hair. Though there are inherited forms, the most common type of TN is due to physical or chemical trauma to the hair.  It occurs more frequently in individuals of African origin with curly hair.1 The spiral shape of the hair follicle and hair shaft predispose African hair to breakage. Type 4c hair naturally is less dense and grows slower than other hair  groups and it is at increased risk for significant damage when exposed to cosmetic treatments. If you think you are suffering from TN you can contact us. We are here to help.
