My hair is breaking and very brittle.

Hello ladies,
I've been experiencing a ton of hair breaking over the last couple of years and tried so many things. Nothing so far has worked and I've tried to adjust my diet but it's still the same. Does any know what the causes could be and how I should proceed from here please?

You should see a doctor if nothing is working for you and it's an ongoing problem.

Try pure coconut oil, once a week saturate your hair in the oil and leave it over night, wash it out in the morning. It works great for me!

Try the Redken Cat Protein Spray. THIS stuff saved my hair and is so wonderful! I always recommend this to someone who has any hair damage.

Sylvie have you sorted your problem yet? I had 15 weeks of radiotherapy & for some reason my hair reacted but I have got it back to health, respond if you want me to tell you what I did.

Have you bleached or dyed your hair before?

If yes then it's probably the di-sulphate bonds in your hair weakening. A keratin (protein found in hair follicles, helps to bind hair structure) treatment should help. Try Olaplex treatment, it won't nourish your hair but it will definitely strengthen your hair integrity and most importantly, no more breakages!

Ask your doctor for a comprehensive metabolic and thyroid panel to see if there are any underlying issues.

I went from black to blonde to black again. My hair was so gross and brittle after all the bleaching/processing. Discovered the ApHogee 2 Minute Keratin Reconstructor and it helped improve the texture and decrease breakage. I would also recommend the Nexxus Moisturizing Shampoo and Conditioner.
