When your hair is damaged, you neither look nor feel your best. The good news is that whether your hair is fried from coloring or too much heat, there are steps you can take to prevent breakage, add moisture, and mend split ends.

You can start by evaluating your own habits in your day-to-day hair care routine. Are you bringing life to your strands or are you causing further damage? If you’re not sure, keep reading to find out how you might be hurting your hair (and how to stop).

You wash your hair in steaming hot water
Hot, steamy showers feel great for achy muscles and can be an amazing pre-bedtime luxury, but the excess heat strips your hair and skin of its natural oils. Save the heat for the sauna and use cool or lukewarm water instead. Using cool water helps to close the hair cuticle and keeps the moisture inside your hair.

You buy commercial shampoo and conditioner
It might be easy to grab the hair products that are closest to checkout, but doing your homework to buy products that are made specifically for your hair type will save you a lot of stress and damage. If your hair is color-treated, then buy shampoo and conditioner for colored hair. If your hair is curly, buy products that will detangle and enhance curls. If your hair is flat and thin, invest in shampoo and conditioner that is volumizing.

You heat style your hair without moisturizing
When you style your hair with heating tools regularly, it can leave your hair dry and brittle. One way to restore your hair is to moisturize it using a product like the AVEDA damage remedy™ daily hair repair, which is a leave-in heat protectant that reduces breakage and adds moisture and shine back to your strands.

You dry your hair with a regular towel
A normal towel is typically made of cotton or terry cloth. The coarse texture is rough on your wet hair and can even cause small craters on your hair shaft as you twist, wring, and pat your hair dry, which causes frizziness and dryness. Counteract this unhealthy habit by using the Afterspa Hair Towel Wrap, which comfortably stays in place as it absorbs excess water.
