Damaged hair: will it ever get better?

Hi Lauren

New hair growth will almost always be healthier. The farther down the strand, the more damage there will be because the ends are the oldest parts. This is due to normal wear and tear. Some ways to minimize natural damage and promote healthier hair (they say it's not what you do, it's what you don't do):

• choose hair accessories wisely: thin hairties or hairtoys with sharp edges will cause damage.
• clarify at least once every two weeks.
• detangle without "ripping" through tangles - undo them with fingers.
• minimize the use of a brush, especially brushes with synthetic bristles
• avoid excess use of hairspray, mousse, serums, gels, and other hold products... some good alternatives are shea butter, jojoba oil, or silicone-free leave-in conditioners such as Giovanni
• a multivitamin such as Centrum
• eat healthy balanced diet and stay hydrated
• a recommendation from Dave, get regular cardiovascular exercise
• avoid curling irons, straightening irons, any irons, dyeing, blow drying, perms, permanent straightening, or other hazardous stuff

Hope this helps
