Hair breakage can be frustrating and is often caused by everyday habits, heat styling, or environmental stressors—but smart changes can make all the difference. Start with gentle detangling using a wide-tooth comb, and always begin from the hair’s ends to reduce tension. Avoid brushing hair when it’s wet, as strands are especially fragile; instead, gently pat dry with a microfiber towel and let your hair air dry as often as possible.​

Limit the use of heat tools and always apply a heat protectant if you style with blow dryers, irons, or curlers. Protective hairstyles, such as loose braids or buns, and using silk scrunchies or pillowcases, help minimize mechanical damage and overnight friction. Nourish your hair by eating a balanced diet rich in protein, biotin, and healthy fats, and keep hydrated to maintain elasticity and shine. Regular trims every 6–8 weeks remove split ends before they travel up the shaft, ensuring healthier, longer hair over time.​

Remember, building healthy hair is about small choices every day—be gentle, be consistent, and treat your hair with the same care you show your skin.
