“From its fresh full nature at the root, the hair slowly thins as it becomes progressively more dehydrated through lifestyle and styling choices such as UV rays, sun, sea, tinting, heat styling and aggressive products,” explains renowned celebrity hairstylist Michael Van Clarke. “This thinner brittle hair then breaks easily under pressure.”

Van Clarke suggests trying:

No-heat or low-heat styling more often.
Using silicone-free products.
Feeding nourishment back into the hair. The Regular LifeSaver Prewash Treatment is best for all types of hair.
LifeSaver UV Leave-in Styling Treatment is great for wavy and curly hair. It eliminates frizz and treats and protects the hair at the same time. Magil Oil and Ten Second Transformation are finishing products that feed and style.
More strategic colouring to get the most effect with the least damage.
Tools designed with hair health in mind – try gentle detanglers and stylers.

These are the most damaging hairstyles for straight, curly and coily hair
