How to Repair Damaged Hair and Prevent Breakage

How to Repair Damaged Hair and Prevent Breakage

Did you know that hair breakage can be caused by a variety of factors? It all comes down to the health of your hair's inner cuticle, which is made up of overlapping scales that keep your strands strong. However, when these scales start to break down, your hair can become dry and brittle, eventually leading to breakage. Hair breakage is a common problem that can be caused by a variety of factors, including heat styling, chemical treatments, and even genetics.

Hair breakage can be frustrating and can lead to thinning and damaged hair. Many people try different products and treatments to prevent hair breakage, but often, these solutions are temporary and don't address the root cause of the problem.

Here are 8 effective ways to tackle hair breakage;

  1. Nourish your hair from within

One of the key factors in preventing hair breakage is ensuring your body receives proper nutrition. Eat a balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and proteins to support hair health. Include foods like eggs, fatty fish, nuts, seeds, and leafy green vegetables, which provide essential nutrients for strong and resilient hair.

  1. Be gentle with wet hair

Wet hair is more susceptible to breakage, so handle it with care. Avoid vigorous towel drying, which can cause friction and damage. Instead, gently squeeze out excess moisture using a soft microfiber towel or an old t-shirt. Detangle your wet hair with a wide-toothed comb or a brush specifically designed for wet hair to minimize breakage and reduce stress on the strands.

  1. Protect your hair from heat

Excessive heat styling is a common cause of hair breakage. Minimize the use of hot tools like straighteners, curling irons, and blow dryers, or use them on the lowest heat settings. Always apply a heat protectant spray or serum before styling to create a barrier between your hair and the heat source. Use Ningen chamomile hair serum formulated with extracts from Chamomile, Onion, Amla, Rosemary and Argan, this powerful serum coats the surface of your hair to protect it from damage and make it appear shiny and smooth. Perfect for all hair types, it will nourish and strengthen your locks, leaving them feeling soft and looking vibrant.

  1. Avoid overprocessing and harsh chemicals

Chemical treatments, such as perms, relaxers, and frequent hair coloring, can weaken the hair structure and lead to breakage. Limit the use of harsh chemicals and opt for more gentle alternatives. If you must color or chemically treat your hair, consider seeking professional assistance to minimize damage and ensure proper care.

  1. Moisturize and hydrate your hair

If you want to prevent hair breakage, keeping your hair moisturized is a must. So, use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner that's made for your hair type. Ningen onion shampoo  is packed with onion extracts, soya flower extracts, and thyme flower extracts. These micronutrients and antioxidants work together to reduce hair fall and promote hair regrowth. But, don't stop there! Add a deep conditioning treatment to your hair care routine at least once a week. Try Ningen Red Onion Hair Conditioner. It's designed to protect your hair from breakage, UV light, and other environmental factors. This conditioner will transform each strand of your hair, making it strong, silky, and shiny.

  1. Trim regularly

Regular trims are essential for maintaining healthy hair and preventing split ends, which can lead to breakage. Aim to trim your hair every 8-12 weeks, or as needed, to remove damaged and split ends and promote healthier growth. Regular trims also help maintain the shape and appearance of your hairstyle.

  1. Choose Hair-friendly accessories

Certain accessories, such as tight hair ties, metal clips, and rough brushes, can cause hair breakage. Opt for hair-friendly alternatives like scrunchies, fabric hair ties, and wide-toothed combs. When tying your hair, avoid pulling it too tightly, as this can stress the strands and lead to breakage. Additionally, be mindful of hairstyles that tug on the hairline or put excessive strain on the hair, such as tight ponytails or braids.

  1. Eat healthy diet

Eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia can cause hair breakage because when the body does not receive enough nutrients, it prioritizes vital organs over hair and nails. This can cause the hair to become weak and brittle, leading to breakage and hair loss. Eating a healthy, balanced diet that includes a variety of nutrients such as protein, vitamins, and minerals can help prevent hair breakage and promote healthy hair growth. Adequate hydration is also important for maintaining healthy hair. Additionally, reducing stress and getting enough sleep can also contribute to overall hair health.

In conclusion, by implementing these effective tips and practices into your hair care routine, you can significantly reduce hair breakage and promote strong, healthy hair.
