How to Fix Dry Damaged Hair?

Life is too short to have bad hair. Nowadays there are so many fun things you can do with your hair. One day you can have braids, then the next a messy bun. Want to add tons of fun and flirty colors? Do it! We love that you can express yourself through your hair and we love helping to make it happen. Just please use caution when changing up your hairstyle frequently. Over-styling, frequent bleaching and processing your hair can leave your hair dry, damaged, and brittle. To help prevent and fix your dry damaged hair, trust the professionals at Jean Paul Spa and Salons to help guide your through our tips and tricks on how to fix dry damaged hair.

  1. Lower the temperature of your styling tools.

We have all dabbled with the newest hair styling tools like straighteners, bubble wands, and crimpers but these tools can leave your hair heat damaged, dry and brittle. One mistake at home stylists make is setting the temperature too high. Unless you have extremely thick coarse hair, a low to medium heat setting will get the job done without frying your hair. When you use your blow dryer or other heat tools make sure you use heat protection products. A favorite here at the hair salon is Moroccanoil Protect & Prevent Spray.

  1. Trim your split ends.

Make sure you are trimming your split ends. It’s an important step in preventing frizz. This is especially important when you are trying to grow out your length. To prevent split ends in the first place, keep your hair healthy with fortifying shampoos, conditioners, and leave-in creams. Some of our favorite brands are Aveda and Opalex.

  1. Choose products that will help protect and repair your dry damaged hair.

Your hairstylist will be able to help steer you toward a shampoo and conditioner perfect for the goals of your individual hair needs, but our favorite to help fix dry damaged hair is Aveda’s Botanical Repair trio. You can purchase Avenda’s Botanical Repair trio at our hair salon in Albany and our hair salon in Latham.

  1. Choose your hair tools wisely.

When you get out of the shower one of the first things you do is brush your hair. This can be damaging especially if you are not using the right hairbrush. At Jean Paul Spa and Salons, we recommend a wide-tooth comb or hairbrush designed for wet hair. One of our favorites include the infamous Wet Brush.

  1. Get professional hair treatments specialized in dry damaged hair.

At Jean Paul Spa and Salons, we offer specialized treatments to help repair dry damaged hair. We offer a range of options in our Keratin and Kerastase hair treatments for both dry and damaged hair. Keratin is a structural protein in your hair that helps strengthen your hair to prevent breakage. Keratin treatments help smooth and reduce frizz and as an added benefit keep freshly colored hair looking vibrant. Treatments can last up to six months and we recommend adding this to your total hair care treatment plan.

Hair damage is more than just split ends. The only real cure is time, a pair of shears, and taking steps to prevent new damage. The style professionals Jean Paul Spa and Salons will work with you to get your hair healthy.
