Hair loss and split ends are some signs that your hair is damaged. Sometimes, it's hard to notice that our hair is falling out right away! We may not notice anything unusual until we feel hair loss when tying our hair and see the bun thinning a lot.
Some cases of hair thinning and loss may be due to a normal part of the aging process. But don't just focus on your hair. If you take a closer look at your hair and see that its length has changed due to breakage, or if you see excessive split ends at the ends, it's time to do something about it.
There are many causes of hair breakage, especially when we face dry hair. In addition to age, other external factors can play a role in hair breakage, including our lifestyle and hair care habits.
Preventing hair loss and split ends depends on identifying common causes of hair breakage and taking preventative measures. From there, if you are still bothered by your hair, there are many ways to restore your hair so you can enjoy healthy, smooth, moisturized and split-free hair.
Let's take a look at what causes hair breakage and what can be done to prevent hair breakage to achieve beautiful, healthy hair.
How do I know if my hair is broken?
Hair loss is a natural phenomenon and can affect everyone, from young to old and all hair types. However, hair loss can become more serious as we get older.
Aging hair becomes drier and results in weaker strands. Hair lacking moisture can become more fragile and brittle with little or no physical contact.
If you can hold and observe your hair, you may notice parts of it that appear to be broken. Those broken shafts can bend and break quite easily. Discolored hair is a sign of hair breakage, but it's not the only sign of hair breakage - although it can be the first sign that something is wrong.
Hair loss is different from normal hair loss and is very easy to recognize. Natural hair loss will have hair roots clinging to it. Broken hair does not have a root, it is just a part of the hair that falls out. Brushing your hair can also cause hair loss and breakage.
There is a tool called the hair loss index tool. This index measures the diameter of each hair strand from the follicle to the scalp and ends. The thinner and looser your hair is, the more likely it is to break.
Of course, this measuring tool cannot be used accurately at home. The best way to do this is to look at the ends of your hair to see if there are split ends and if you notice any other signs of damage in your hair like frizz or loss of elasticity.
Please refer to Nubea's line of shampoos to restore damaged hair of natural origin. This product will significantly assist in preventing hair breakage and split ends.
