Let’s review the causes of damaged hair further, so we can better understand how to improve our hair’s health.·<br /><br /><strong>Multiple chemical processes too often.</strong> All those color changes can cause big problems. It isn’t the occasional changes every few months that causes the problems, it is the constant total changes of color on the same hair. When you have your roots done, you are only applying color and to the “new growth” which has not been exposed to chemicals before and thus no problem occurs. Try to avoid changing your color too often, and always discuss the changes with your stylist to avoid problems.·<br /><br /><strong>Limit the heat.</strong> Too much heat will dry your hair, and if it is too hot it will burn the hair off completely. Change out your styling appliances on the regular basis to avoid a thermostat that is not working properly. Trust your instinct, if you think your appliances are not working like they did in the beginning, then buy new ones before you encounter a problem.·<br /><br /><strong>Weather and pollutants in the environment.</strong> Just as your skin is effected by the environment, so is your hair.
