4 Steps to Repair Hair

Our hair is vulnerable, and damaged hair isn’t just caused from regular heat styling and colouring. Our precious locks are exposed daily to external aggressors. These can cause damage, brittleness and breakage. You don’t have to live with damage – here’s how to repair hair, quickly.

To help, here are the top 4 tips from Redken on how to keep hair healthy and protected.

DIAGNOSE FIRST. REPAIR HAIR SECOND.

Firstly, to determine the kind of treatment you need, you need to know the level of damage your hair is in.

With wet hair, take one strand between your fingers and gently stretch the strand. When you release, if your hair returns to its same strong starting position – well done! If it doesn’t retract, your hair has become weakened.

USE PROTECTION

If you find it hard to avoid heat styling (don’t worry, we totally get it!), then heat protection is an absolute must.

Use of heat tools without protection is the fastest way to end up with dry, brittle and frizzy hair. Find the perfect product for your hair type and then use it before you apply any heat to your hair. That includes blow drying, straightening and curling. No excuses!

MASK UP TO REPAIR HAIR!

Pampering doesn’t stop with your Sunday evening face mask. Regular hair masks are vital to health, nourished locks.

Hair masks hold more concentrated formulas that your regular conditioner and are effective at stamping out your hair concerns. Integrate a hair mask into your routine at least once a week – twice is better – and start to enjoy your new healthy, shiny head of hair!

DON’T LEAVE OUT LEAVE-INS

Did you know that you can find a leave-in hair product no matter what your hair type is? Yes, even those on the oilier side should be utilising one.

A leave-in, targeted to your specific hair need will allow for easier detangling, provide shine and heat protection. They will keep your hair’s moisture levels up and can even prevent damage, protecting hair from environmental aggressors.
