Medical Video: 10 Warning Signs Your Heart Isn't Working Properly
Hair is one of the crowns of the body that must not escape treatment. Because the slightest mistake in treating hair can make it damaged and not healthy anymore. Of the many problems with the hair, one that is often complained about is the tip of the hair that is branching. Get to know the various causes of branching hair below.
What are the causes of split ends?
If you pay close attention, the ends of branched hair are usually very dry, brittle, until they appear to break down or split into two parts. Maybe without you realizing it, there are many reasons behind the damage to the tip of your hair. Whether it's due to weather changes, wrong hair care techniques, or the use of products that damage the hair so it becomes dry.
Now, to find out what really causes split ends, try to recall that you've done at least one of these things:
1. Overuse hair dryer or drill
Many women are willing to spend a few minutes poking,blow, or just dry your hair with hair dryer after shampooing.
Unfortunately, the hot temperature of these various hairdressers can remove the natural water content in your hair. The more often you use these tools, the natural nutrition of hair constituents will disappear little by little. Finally, the hair becomes dry and branched.
This condition can get worse if you do the wrong technique when using a hairdresser. For example by using it repeatedly in the same place. Hair will indeed look prettier, but over time it can damage the health of the hair.
2. Always tie hair in the same place
Mackenzie Day, a hairdresser and owner of The Artist Hause beauty salon in Pennsylvania, United States (US) said that always tying hair in the same place every day turned out to damage your hair.
Not without reason, this is triggered by strong pressure from the hair tie. It is like, hair also needs space to breathe, and tying your hair too tight can make it difficult to free movement of your hair. Plus if you also do this habit when the hair is still wet.
Over time, the hair becomes more damaged and branched.
3. repeatedly coloring hair
As you probably already know, using hair paints that contain lots of chemicals can damage the naturalness of your hair and cause split ends.
This will get worse if the coloring process is done many times, especially if you are not given a serum or vitamin to maintain healthy hair.
4. Use hair care products that don't match
Regular use of products to treat the beauty of hair is actually fine, but also pay attention to the content in your favorite products. Instead of making hair shiny, it can backfire for the health of your hair.
Further explained by Lorean Cairns, hairdresser and founder of Fox and Jane Salon in New York City, USA, hair care products with ingredients that do not match your hair can eliminate the natural nutrient content of hair.
That is why the hair becomes easily tangled, brittle, damaged, and makes it vulnerable to rupture and branching at the edges.
5. Do not cut damaged hair
Ideally, the ends of the hair should at least be cut regularly every six weeks. Or if it is not possible, you should immediately cut the ends of the hair when it starts to look branched and damaged.
The goal is that the "seeds" of branched hair can be immediately treated so as not to get worse. Because after all, early prevention is one of the best keys to healthy hair.
Then, what should be done to prevent it?
The only way you can deal with split hair is to cut it. Therefore, you should treat your hair optimally as a form of prevention before a branch appears on the tip of the hair. Some of these methods can help you to prevent damage to the tip of your hair:
- Use protective serum or lotion every time you want to use your hair hair dryer or drill.
- Use conditioner every shampoo.
- Choose hair care products such as shampoo, conditioner, and serum with natural ingredients that match your hair problem.
- Do not use a hairdresser with a temperature that is too hot.
- Avoid too often coloring, straightening, andblow hair.
- Routinely cut the ends of your hair at least every six weeks.
In addition, you should avoid combing your hair in wet conditions. Wet hair tends to be weaker and more easily damaged. It is also important to pay attention to the small things that you may often miss every time you take care of your hair, to keep your hair healthy and not easily branched.
