Heat Damage
We all use the blow dryer to dry our hair or hair straightener / curler to style it perfectly. However, the frequent use of these heat tools affects the hair badly and damages it. Thus, when you reduce the usage of these styling tools, you can reduce the risk of hair damage. Also, if you’re considering using a hair straightener, make sure to apply a thermal protection product before, here are some suggestions:

HSI PROFESSIONAL Argan Oil Heat Protector
Kenra Thermal Styling Spray 19
Sun damage
Just like skin, your hair needs to be protected from the sun's UV rays, as theycause great damage, especially during summer when you spend hours on the beach exposing your hair to the sun.
