Let's admit it. We want long. beautiful hair, even in its natural state. We want our hair to blow in the wind. We want to flip our hair back and forth. It doesn't have to be bone straight but let the length be lengthing! But alas, while it is not impossible, for many it has seemed so hard, due to the structure of our hair, to see length past their earlobes.
Why Is Your Hair Breaking?
There are many reasons why your hair could be breaking; ranging from your diet to medical conditions and medications. Here are just a few of the most common causes.
1. Your Poor Diet Can Be Causing Your Hair Breakage
Poor eating habits and eating foods without enough nutrients will affect the strength and vitality of your hair. You should eat foods that are high in iron, zinc and folic acid. This will help you to grow healthy hair. If you are not able to get all the nutrients from the food you eat, look into adding multi-vitamin capsules to top up. There are even capsules made specifically for strengthening your hair and nails.
2. Your Dry Hair Can Be Causing Your Hair Breakage
Dry hair is brittle and prone to damage and breakage. Not using conditioner after shampooing your hair and using hot water while washing can contribute to your hair being dry. Take a look at our Top 3 tips to prevent breakage blog to see more information about how to use conditioner to prevent your hair from breaking.
3. Brushing Your Wet Hair Can be Causing Your Hair Breakage
Brushing your hair while it is wet and in its most vulnerable state can cause the hair break. If your hair is already dry and brittle that means there is no elasticity for the hair to bounce back so it will just snap off. When detangling, make sure their is a detangling product that will help give your hair slip and try to detangle with your fingers.
4. Your Excessive Use of Heating Tools Can Be Causing Your Hair Breakage
Excessive and extreme heat breaks the bonds of your hair strands causing your hair to break. This includes flat irons, hot combs, blow dryers and even washing your hair with hot water. Limit your use of such tools and always take advantage their cool settings to quickly stop the "cooking" process.
5. Your Use Of Chemical Treatments Can Be Causing Your Hair Breakage
Chemical treatments such as relaxers and dyeing your hair can cause breakage especially when done too often and within a short period of time. Since these chemicals break down the structure of the hair shaft to create a new structure, the hair becomes weak and fragile and can break easily.
6. Wearing Tight Hairstyles Can Be Causing Your Hair Breakage
In order to grow long hair, you want to avoid putting your hair in tight hairstyles. Constantly putting your hair in tight hairstyles such as ponytails or braids can cause traction alopecia at the root but also can weaken the hair due to the rigorous styling. Practice wearing styles that don't pull and twist your hair too much.
