Blow drying, wind, harsh shampoos and chemical services all take their toll on the condition of your hair or hairstyle.

Some hairsprays, styling products and conditioners can also damage the hair.

Signs of Damaged Hair

If you have one or more of these characteristics of damaged hair, see your stylist

(1) Rough texture- feels un-natural ex. hay

(2) Over-porous- the hair easily absorbs moisture

(3) Brittle and dry to the touch- lots of fly-aways and breaking off

(4) Susceptible to breakage- hair is literally breaking in pieces

(5) No elasticity- like a rubberband, it's been stretched so much it can't stretch any longer

(6) Becomes spongy and matted when it’s wet- cotton candy feel

(7) Color fades or takes too quickly (resulting in turning the color black)

Any of these hair conditions will create problems during certain services:

----color, lightening, perms and relaxers----

(1) Damaged hair should receive reconditioning treatments (strong protein enriched conditioning treatment) prior to and after any chemical treatment

When you’re dealing with damaged hair

(1) Use deep penetrating conditioners that can deposit protein, oils and moisture rich ingredients

(2) Postpone chemical treatments until the hair has been reconditioned

(3) Get additional conditioning treatments (at the salon or at home.. it won’t matter)

(4) Ask your stylist what the best product is for you
