PLEASE HELP!!! My hair is DAMAGED! It is fine and thin and used to be naturally curly but was damage

by a straightener and a bad highlight job last year leaving it in TERRIBLE shape and breaking, so I finally resorted to having it cut above chin length in layers, but it is still dry and won't take a shape. I feel compelled to wash daily as it looks like flat total CRAP each morning plus I have psoriasis in the scalp and it flakes and itches, so I feel compelled to wash. I let it air dry most of the way then dry for about 1 to 2 minutes with the blow dryer, brush into some semblance of a place and spray lightly. I curl my bangs as they still have some of the natural curl in them and won't take on any semblance of shape either. I have heard it is best to not wash each day. Would this help my psoriasis and could I still wet or condition it each day?? I'm a hard sleeper and I sweat sometimes and I wake up looking like my hair is flat to my head and a big mess. Brushing doesn't fix it either. It needs either to be wet or blow dried or something. Would a hot oil treatment help?

next time you're at your hairdressers having your hair cut, ask this. they'll tell you what to do %26amp; maybe recommend some products to help - they are professionals. for when you sleep, have your hair in 2 plaits %26amp; don't wash your hair everyday, because it drys out your scalp

Keep getting trims, take a multivitamin every day so that your hair grows in healthier. You can try the hot oil treatment but it will only take care of it being dry. Stay away from belach...highlighting and straightners. Maybe you can add semi permament color to your hair..that can help it from looking dull and limp and its shouldnt damage your hair. You need to find a really good hair stylist in your area.

Hi Ya

Badley damaged hair can only be made to look healthier, it has to grow out and have regular trims.

Try deep conditioning treatments all you have to do is wet hair use any thick conditioner cheap or not something with armonds in or herbal or coconut. Spread it on the hair and then wet a small towel in hot water wring out and wrap around hair, when towel cools down wet again in hot water do this for twenty minutes, then rinse with warm water let the hair dry naturally.

Do this once a week

Then use hot oil treat ment once a week

The remander of the time use a leave in conditioner.

Always use a protective product( such as mouse)when blow drying and on a low hea and not for ong.

Stick to this and you should see a differance on the way it looks until it grows out.

Do not was every day and try not to use a hard brush

Hope this helps

First, try not to wash everyday and if you do only wash the roots and never the length. just put conditioner on the ends when you wash the roots. second brushing is bad, groom your hair than leave it alone, brushing causes split ends. third use a volumiazing conditioner. fourth ionic hairdryers are best or ones that you can blow dry your hair on a cold air setting. try no heat. fifth try a hair mask two times a week. I like ojon restorative hair treatment. it is a bit pricey but will last a really long time and makes you hair feel stronger and put oils in your hair. hope that helps!

Straightening your hair and then highlighting it can be and is often very risky. Such processes should be handled by a very competent operator(s). Your hair should always be in very good condition to relax it and if you plan to color or highlight, you must let your hairdresser know in order to use the correct relaxer. You then must wait at least 2 weeks before any kind of color process and by all means let the colorist know about your relaxer. By doing so, the colorist will use the correct amount of developer to give you the maximum color you wish and yet avoid damage to your hair. Also, there are certain colors that are better suited for those of us who relaxer and color our hair. Between processes, you should get a good recommended treatments.

I have been doing this for more than 40 years and even with the best of care, I sometimes encounter some damage and dryness but that is taken care of with proper treatments and as little heat when styling the hair. Instead of blow drying, I have my hair either wrapped or rolled and I sit under a medium dryer. Honestly, if you see a competent and caring professional, you will get good service and if you don't, you will suffer hell.

Now that you have such damaged hair, you will need to cut it very short and to allow all the chemicals to grow out. During that time, have regular conditioning treatments and use a shampoo for your special needs. You have no other choice but to go natural for a long while until your scalp is healthy again. When that finally happens, you should only have chemicals applied by a qualified operator and not until you have thoroughly discussed your past problems and issues.

cut it short and start all over again and try not to use heated products and dyes in it

or keep getting regular trims until the damaged hair grows out

also deep heat conditioning treatments will work

try not to use heated appliances and try to use magnetic rollers to set your hair when damp with a good setting lotion and then let it air dry. as you have naturally curly hair you should retain their shape longer as your hair will have dried into the shape of the rollers
