what is hair breakage?

Hair breakage is when strands of hair snap as a result of hair bonds becoming dehydrated. A lack of moisture in the hair typically causes it to become dull and straw-like, whilst being brittle + prone to split ends.

Hair breakage affects all hair types, textures, and lengths so you aren’t alone in your struggles to revive your hair back to health.

what causes hair breakage?

There are multiple factors that could be impacting the health of your hair and causing breakage:

Heat styling. Before applying heat to hair (hairdryers, straighteners, curlers) it is important to always use heat protection and protect your tresses from drying out due to extreme heat.

Chemical treatments. Treatments such as perms, bleaching, and keratin straightening can damage the hairs outer cuticle; resulting in dry hair.

Over-washing. Excessive hair washing can wash away the natural oils that would work to prevent your hair becoming dry and brittle.

how to look good whilst you’re repairing your hair

Woman with hydrated hair

Here are a few tips to help manage the transition period from damaged to luscious hair:

Hair down. Tying hair up can put considerable strain on your strands with elastic bobbles, in particular, contributing to damage of the hair cuticles. Instead try to leave you hair down or switch to silk bobbles which are much kinder (+ bougier).

Regular haircuts. Keeping on top of split ends will help to encourage hair growth and help you feel refreshed even if you are still very much on a journey to recovering your damaged hair.

Hair masks. If leaving your hair down is a no go, incorporate a hair mask in to your updo. Apply the kure bond repair mask and slick your hair back in to a bun – no one will know that your hair is secretly receiving a reparative treatment as you go about your day.

Avoid heat. When ever possible try to avoid styling your hair with heat. Prior to airdrying, work in some the wizard detangling primer for effortless styling of pesky flyaways.
