How to Fix Damaged Hair
Blow-dryers, flatirons, hair dye, and even an innocent brush can stretch and break hair. But does repairing it mean giving up on style? Not necessarily.
Pretty much all the tricks and tools we have for making hair look good temporarily are exactly what makes it look (and feel) like a dry, frazzled mess in the long run. No wonder 86 percent of women in a recent Unilever survey said that damage is the number one thing that they want to change about their hair. While the researchers didn’t ask those women if they were actually willing to do what it takes to prevent their strands from becoming frayed, our educated guess is that the percentage would be quite low. After all, just because you might know exactly what you’d need to do to get soft, glossy hair doesn’t mean you want to, say, go to work with a wet head every morning.
