I have very long hair and unfortunately, they are very destroyed at the ends. I make blonde highlights twice a year. I use hair-dryer only in urgent cases (one or twice a month). I wash it every day. What should I do to make them healthier? SHould I use comb or brush if they are difficult to comb?
What to do with unhealthy hair? Okay... number one, if you don't have to, don't wash your hair everyday. Many people over wash their hair which strips out the natural oils your scalp produces.
Number two, when you -do- wash your hair, use a moisturizing shampoo (even better, one meant for color-treated hair). Biolage is excellent. A cheaper option, which is just as good is Bioterra at Sally Beauty Supply (it's on sale during the month of February). Your conditioner should also be meant for color treated hair because at times it can strip color.
Once a week, you should use a deep conditioner. What's the difference? This is kind of an emergency service that gives your hair a jolt of life and replenishes some of the protein lost from everyday styling. Good deep conditioners have a mayonnaise-like consistency and specifically state they contain protein. A lovely one is the moisturizing treatment from Silk Elements. Also sold at Sally Beauty Supply.
After washing and conditioning, use a leave-in conditioner. Leave-in conditioners add just a touch of moisture and fortify your hair with protein (but not o much to harden your hair). It only takes 2-3 sprays around the head, so a bottle lasts a long time. Mane and Tail has their Hair Strengthener which is just awesome.
Trim the really damaged ends and continue to get a trim every few months. Trust me, your hair will grow faster. When dealing with tangles, use a detangler with a wide tooth comb. The best detangler I have ever come across is the one from the Silk Elements children line, go figure. You can literally finger comb the worst tangles out and it makes your hair really soft.
What to do with unhealthy hair? Shave it.
What to do with unhealthy hair? Cut off the destroyed ends. In thr future, use a detangler and a wide tooth comb. Throw out your brush.
What to do with unhealthy hair? I had the same problem, although mine was because I had dyed it so many times over the years. I fixed it on accident really... Well I started with only brushing it maybe once every couple of days, to get out the hairs that had fallen out or whatever. Secondly, I used this reallllly cheap and reallllly wonderful shampoo/conditioner combo. It totally repaired it, my hair is healthier, softer, shinier, all that stuff they advertise on television. The brand is Sunsilk, it's in a hot pink bottle and I believe the "type" is "Hydra TLC" (they have all kinds, but THIS one definitely repairs it. I definitely recommend it.)
hope this helps!!

What to do with unhealthy hair? The only way to cure split ends is to cut them off. A good trimming is the best step towards healthier hair.
Fructis long and strong shampoo is a good way to make your hair healthier as far as appearance and shine and to prevent further breakage. Don't use a brush on wet hair, always use a comb and start from the bottom and work your way up-never ever tug through knots. Buy a hair mask product such as pantene pro-v or aussie 3 minute miracle and use at least once a week. Fructis has 3 minute heavy conditioning masks also. Hot oil treatments are good also but can remove certain tints in your highlights.
Bleaching is absolutely the worst thing you can do to your hair. Try using regular hair dye instead of bleaching/frosting it.
What to do with unhealthy hair? trim it only at the ends, and if u want ure hair straight, don't use a blow dryer. it dries up ure hair, and it makes it get poofy. use sunsilk. the purple-ish one called satin smooth or something like that, it works great! i've been using it for like only 4 days, and i've seen great results. okay, its only like 6.50 for all three formulas. theres a shampoo, conditioner, and this special hair spray, buy them all for just 6.50. its cheap.

What to do with unhealthy hair? dont wash your hair every day. if it is oily 3 times a week, dry once a week, normal twice a week. dont buy cheap shampoo (supermarket) and always get for your hair type. trim your ends and use a mask at least once a week. or do a mask wrap it in aluminum foil and blast with a blowdryer for 5 minutes. conditioner on your ends is considered very important. use a wide toothed comb or a paddle brush.
What to do with unhealthy hair? Start by cutting off all the damage. If you don't it will just continue to break up and create frizzy, unhealthy hair. Once you've done that maintain your hair by getting it cut every 2 months or so. Also use a hair gloss conditioner once a week. Loreal has one out that I use. You can find it in the hair colour section of a grocery store or pharmacy or wherever.
What to do with unhealthy hair? i suggest that you use deep conditioners when you have a chance. sit under the dryer so the conditioner can permeate throughout the hair. try not to brush or comb your hair very often. also, get your ends clipped, like 3 inches off to make sure that all the dead is gone. do this everything two-three months. if your hair is really damaged lay off the high lights. go to a good salon if you could afford it and they will show you products that work.
but if you have dry hair a good conditioner is olive oil the day before you wash it. do that three times a week for a month and i could guarentee you my life that it works. o and you know what else makes your hair healthy, prenatal pills or biotin tablets.
What to do with unhealthy hair? try not washing it so offten if its longer then your nipple then try wasing it a couple times a week only and only brush it when it is dry to prevent breakage and an leavr in conditioner will help to make the ends appear less dry and damaged and make sure you r triming about 3/4-1/2 inch every 6-8 weeks to take of the damaged ends because a split end can progress over time up the shaft of the hair cuticle damaging the over all look of the hair
What to do with unhealthy hair? you know the best thing for that problem?...when you take a bath and your is like moist take some olive oil with some lemon (it also removes dandruff!) and put it in your hair, starting from the roots and massage it all around in your hair, you can then apply it to your whole hair and then wash it the next day or at night, believe me this works i know gurlz think that putting oil is yucky but if you really want your hair to stay on your head you'll need to do proper oiling, and remember if you're using shampoo plus conditioner then you can use it twice not more then that in one wash, and if you're using shampoo and conditioner seperate then i would recommend you to only apply shampoo as oil already conditions your hair, and yeah a very important tip, dry your hair in sunlight but dont dry full just take some warmth of the sun and let all this do the work, iguarantee you use this technique, and i can suggest you some other hair oils but for that i need to get their english names for you
What to do with unhealthy hair? trim the ends, stop washing it everyday cause that drys it out use a wide tooth comb and i like to use TRESemm'e dry and damaged hair it work really really good for me anyways.
