POV: Your hair is damaged, and you want to get it healthier

You’ve experimented with your hair with various dyes, or maybe you’re an avid heat styler or perhaps you’ve done various straitening or curling salon treatments. Regardless, you have damaged your hair over the years, it’s just getting to be a little difficult to manage and you’re ready to start “fresh”. Where do you start? In this article we’re going to walk you through three essential steps to start with to kickstart your healthy hair journey. And as usual, we’re just diving right in!

Step 1: Trim Away the Damage

The first step in reviving damaged hair is to trim away the trouble spots. Take a close look at your hair and identify areas of severe damage, such as split ends and breakage. These damaged ends can prevent your hair from looking its best and may even hinder healthy growth. Schedule a trim with your hairstylist to remove these damaged ends and give your hair a fresh start. While it may be tough to part with some length, remember that sacrificing a few inches now will lead to stronger, healthier hair in the long run.

Step 2: Handle with Care

Once you've trimmed away the damage, it's time to start treating your hair with the gentleness it deserves. Keep in mind that hair is essentially dead, meaning it can't repair itself. With this in mind, it's best to focus on prevention rather than correction. Limit your use of heat styling tools, and always use a heat protectant when you do. Opt for gentle hair styles that minimize pulling and tugging on your strands, and be mindful when brushing to avoid unnecessary breakage. And always apply a light nourishing oil to your ends every evening to protect your hair while you sleep. By treating your hair with care, you'll help prevent further damage and promote overall hair health.

Step 3: Nurture Your Scalp

Last but certainly not least, don't forget about your scalp! A healthy scalp is the foundation for healthy hair growth, so it's important to give it the attention it deserves. Start incorporating a scalp care routine into your hair care regimen to nourish and support your hair follicles. This can include regular scalp massages to stimulate blood flow, as well as using scalp treatments to keep your scalp hydrated and balanced. By nurturing your scalp, you'll create the optimal environment for healthy hair growth and ensure that the hair you're growing is as strong and resilient as possible.
