BREAKAGE BREAKAGE HELP ME

HI ALL I'M NEW TO THE BOARD. I'M HAVING A HARD TIME KEEPING MY HAIR ON MY HEAD. IT GROWS BUT BREAKS OFF SOMETIMES I SEE HAIR THAT HAS COME OUT FROM THE ROOT (THAT LITTLE BULB AT THAT END...RIGHT?)THAT HAPPENS A LOT WHEN I GET IT BRAIDED. MY HAIR IS VERY THIN, DRY, AND BRITTLE. I'V BEEN READING AND GOT ALOT OF INFO. I NOW USE A LYE RELAXER "DESINGERS TOUCH" BECAUSE NO-LYE WAS MAKING MY HAIR WAY TO DRY. A GREAT IMPROVEMENT. I'M NOW IN THE PROCESS OF FINISHING UP THE REST OF MY MULTI-VITAMINS. I WILL BE GETTING "GNC ULTRA NOURISH HAIR" VITAMIN. AND I WILL BE GETTING RID OF ALL OF THOSE HAIR PRODUCTS THAT ARE SITTING UNDER THE SINK LOL. ONE THING THAT I FOUND UNDER THE SINK WAS "APHOGEE TREATMENT FOR DAMAGED HAIR" SAMPLE TRIED IT STOPPED THE BREAKING RIGHT AWAY. GOING TO GET MORE OF THAT. WELL I'M RUNNING OUT OF SPACE. THANKS ALOT TO EVERYONE.
