Hair breaking and falling - the bane of all women who want to keep every single strand of hair they have on their heads where it belongs! I know it annoys me every time I see the strands of hair that chose to accompany my hairbrush, instead of stay on my head. Dry, brittle hair breaks very easily. If the hair is not nourished and moisturized as it grows, the ends grow thinner and split off from the main shaft. A hairstylist will tell you that you should cut/trim your hair every six weeks. But if you want to grow hair, then you need the centimeter or so of monthly growth to add up before it starts getting snipped off. That said, if your ends are breaking because of bad hair health, cut it back until you reach healthier hair further up the strand.
For healthy hair, the total hair care package becomes important. On a holistic level, a good diet is essential to nourishing all parts of your body, including your hair follicles. I’ve had times of increased hair loss, when I was under a lot of stress and also when I travelled a lot on work. By setting other areas of health right, my hair responded well too. The next step is choosing the right hair products. Use moisturizing shampoos and always use a conditioner. There are products marketed for dry and damaged hair, and this is always a good aisle to start shopping in. Using natural oils on your scalp and hair allows the hair to soak in moisture and increase tensile strength. I leave oil (olive or coconut) in my hair for an hour before shampooing it off. Others suggest keeping an application of oil on overnight at least once a week. Ultimately, hair loss through breaking or falling can be arrested, with the right hair care regimen for your hair and your convenience.
