Damaged Hair??

My hair is ugly!! its dry and doesn't have that smooth feeling at all!! Every time i try to put my hair into a wrap its never shiny unless i use oil sheen, and its limp and sometimes it feels very heavy!! it doesn't have that normal bounce to it when i wrap it, it just like stays in one place, like if i shake my head or something.

Okay yeah my ends are split. I usually get relaxers every 6wks and they are home kits. I've done had two diffrent semi permanent hair colors added to my hair (Jazzing) and neither were comepletely removed.

The hair on the back of my head is the worst!! its like at the nape of my neck its a row of long hair and up until the middle of my head its really short like a babys hair. Then all over my head my hair is all diffreant lengths, the top is really long and the back is so short if i were to get braids you couldnt grip it.

I use to wear weave ponytails, up really high, I was told that gel brakes off the hair so i dont use it. But i think thats why

I have a few good ways to make your hair much healthier. My hair was very dry and thin and breaking off because of a messed up dye job and after doing these everything started getting better. make sure you are eating healthy and getting exercise and protein because these will effect your hair growth. try these to make you hair look, feel, and overall be much healthier quickly. anyone will work but i find the second to be most helpful the fastest. and you can do them all as often as you wish!

1. put olive oil in your hair and cover with a shower cap. sleep with that in but make sure you have a shower cap or it will all get in your bed. put shampoo on before even getting your hair wet or it will be very hard to get out. then just wash as normal.

2. [my favorite] mix two egg yolks with two tbsp of olive oil and a cup of water. put it all through your hair and leave it in for fiftenn minutes. it will be messy so its best to do it in the tub. after the fifteen minutes rinse out in luke warm water. watch out-if the waters too hot it will cook the egg! this will be hard to get out so your going to have to shampoo at least twice!

3. when washing your hair leave your conditioner in a little bit longer than usual. maybe 5-10 minutes. its as simple as that!

4. go into a salon and get a hot oil treatment done every once and awhile. they usually are not very expensive. just call different salons and ask their prices. it does wonders for the hair.

don't forget to get the split ends trimmed! if your ends are split your hair isnt going to grow very much.

good luck!

Well, without seeing your hair in person it's hard to say. I can't even begin to make a recommendation! I would suggest that you stop in at a salon and have a stylist look at your hair and assess the situation. He/she can then let you know what your best course of action would be and you can decide and go from there.

BTW, gel does not necessarily break off hair, but it can contribute to dryness if it's a cheap brand and has a very high alcohol content. And from the sounds of things, you don't need anything else contributing to your dryness issues!!!

Good luck to you, I wish I could be of more assistance, but as I said it's really hard to make a recommendation like this without seeing your hair in person.

Damaged Hair??

first of all, could you include the thickness of your hair on a scale of 1-10, 1 being very thin and 10 being super thick?

next, if you use any products, hold off on them until you see any improvement.

You should also have had the hair colors removed before getting another color...

But what I do is put shampoo the size of a golden dollar into my hand, lather it well, and rinse it out.

for conditioner, only put an itty bitty squirt into your hands; the size of a dime. only condition the lower part of your hair, from the ears down.

I do this and my hair is shiny without being oily and not frizzy.

And if none of this helps, seek extra help from a professional hair care expert.

(or go to a salon... whatever works.)
