Your hair is dry, brittle and lacks shine: your hair is damaged. To make sure your hair is happy again (and you too) we have collected 5 expert tips for you.
CAUSES OF DAMAGED HAIR
First things first : what exactly is damaged hair? To do this, we will zoom in a little deeper on the individual hair. Every hair contains sulphur bridges, which keep the hair strong. If the sulphur bridges are broken, the hair loses its strength . This can be caused by chemical treatments , such as bleaching and dyeing, but also by a lack of moisture . If you use heat tools, such as a hair dryer or straightener, some of the moisture evaporates and the hair dries out. The result? Shiny hair that feels straw-like, frizzy and brittle: damaged hair.
HOW TO REPAIR DAMAGED HAIR
Knowing why your hair is damaged is one thing, but the most important question is: how do you repair your damaged hair? It's all about repairing the disulfide bonds and hydration. With our five expert tips, your hair will soon be healthy again!
1. Use your hair dryer, straightener and curling iron as little as possible
Embrace your natural structure or try creating heatless curls . Let your hair air dry as much as possible. Wet hair is much more vulnerable than dry hair. Can't part with your heat tools? Always use a product with heat protector to limit the damage.
2. Protect your hair from the sun
In addition to heat tools , the sun can also damage and dry out your hair . Are you going into the sun? Always use a product with a UV filter. The My Hero Wonder Spray contains a UV filter as well as a heat protector and is therefore perfect to protect your hair against all forms of heat.
3. Go for a restorative treatment
Damaged hair is caused by broken sulfur bridges, remember ? Fortunately, the sulfur bridges can also be restored . There are special treatments for this, such as the RESCUE Bond Therapy. With this treatment, your hair is cared for with the Bond Therapy Complex developed by professionals, which restores the sulfur bridges. In addition, this treatment also contains active natural ingredients, including aloe vera, which hydrate the hair and therefore make it healthy & shiny again.
4. Use a nourishing shampoo and conditioner
There are also shampoos and conditioners that help rebuild and hydrate the hair. And that is exactly what your damaged hair needs! Take for example the Kiss Of Life Shampoo and Conditioner.
5. Pamper your hair with a hair mask
Damaged hair really needs some extra love. That’s why it’s good to use a nourishing hair mask once a week. The Bond Therapy Weekly Treatment , like the Rescue Bond Therapy and all other products in the RESCUE line, contains the Bond Therapy Complex and active ingredients that hydrate the hair, making it perfect for bringing your damaged locks back to life!
Only happy & healthy hair days ahead!
