When it comes to getting luscious locks, many women wonder what they’re doing wrong. Truth be told, there are a number of things that can damage your hair. In this blog post, we’ll uncover three things that damage your hair the worst, and we’ll offer insight into how to correct the damage done.                                                          1. Dying Your HairUsing chemicals to change the color of your hair will almost always damage it to some extent, but we’re still always going to be tempted to transform our hair color to something new. If you’re planning on coloring your hair, do research to find natural or at least gentle products to reduce the amount of damage done. Of course, eliminating dye completely is the only way to prevent damage from hair coloring. 2. Brushing HairWe’ve all got to brush our hair, yet hair brushing is one of the worst thing for it. Find gentler brushes to help reduce the damage you’re doing to your hair, but also make sure that you aren’t brushing straight down from the roots. Brush from the tip in sections moving upward to reduce damage. 3. Using the Wrong Hair ProductsUsing the wrong daily products can also cause damage to your hair. Products like the ones from Research in Beauty, especially Nano DryFix, can help prevent damage while treating current damage. With products like Nano DryFix, you can actually treat damage from the inside out.

Many of us get our hair colored, and we’re accustomed to the process - but what’s really going on? In this article, we’ll give you a step-by-step at the chemical processes happening and what’s occurs within the hair when you dye it. First of all, hair dye has ammonia in it. It works by lifting the cuticle to get the hair ready to receive the color. The process usually calls for peroxide, which takes out the current color and further readies the hair for new color. The new color can then bind to the hair. Keep in mind, the longer the dye sets, the more damage that’s being done to your hair. Oh, and the smell? That’s sulfur being released from your hair when the peroxide reacts with the hair’s proteins. Any hair dye that promotes itself as ammonia-free will still lift the cuticle. Without the cuticle being lifted, the color wouldn’t stay. So when you reach for something gentler, keep that in mind! Products like Nano DryFix can help treat this damage from the inside out, which could be a solution if you’re looking to treat your hair after coloring. ​
