Question:
My hair is broken from root to tip — how can I repair it? Sondra, via e-mail.
Answer:
“Just stop whatever you’re doing right now,” says Robert Maiolo of Maiolo Copeland Salon in Sydney’s Darlinghurst. “A few things could be causing the hair to break. One of the biggest offenders is the straightening iron. Try not to use it every day and always apply a styling product to protect the hair. Other likely offenders are plastic brushes and hair bands with metal that snag. Try Lady Jayne Elastic Snagless, packet of 12, $5.
The best treatment is to simply give your hair a rest and find a style that works. “You can also use a deep protein treatment once a week or fortnight to repair the hair. Try John Frieda Frizz-Ease Miraculous Recovery Deep-Conditioning Treatment, $22. Comb through, using a wide-tooth comb, from mid-length to tips. Ultimately, if you’re having serious hair breakage, it may be time to have a drastic cut and start all over again.”
