Brittle ends & dull hair: What you can do about it
Do you suffer from lifeless, dull hair and brittle ends? This can have many causes, and contrary to first impressions, most of them lie within us. The right diet, for example, has a huge impact on our hair health, but proper care is also essential!
On average, our hair grows about 1 to 1.5 cm per month, which is about 12 to 18 cm per year—quite a lot! So why do we still feel like our hair isn't growing? There can be many reasons for this.
Why isn't my hair growing?
Your hair is growing, that's the good news. The bad news is that your hair is breaking off again at the ends, and the drier the ends, the faster this breakage occurs. That's why we need to care for our hair, both inside and out.
5 tips for your dream mane
-
Healthy diet: You are what you eat—in this case, that's true. A balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and proteins promotes hair health.
- Gentle hair washing: Washing your hair too often can be damaging, as you strip your scalp of its natural oils. Try taking a day off between washes and using the mildest shampoo possible.
-
Heat protection: Excessive heat can damage hair. Reduce your use of styling tools like hair dryers and straighteners. Also, always make sure to use heat protectant!
-
Regular trims: Doesn't cutting your hair and long hair mix? Yes, they do! Regularly trimming your ends reduces your split ends and prevents them from "eating their way up." While cutting your hair won't make it grow faster, it will break less quickly.
- Our miracle weapon – HAIRLICIOUS CAPSULES : We had to dedicate a special spot to this product because these capsules are a real insider tip for long, healthy hair. Taking them (we recommend at least 2-3 months) is scientifically proven to support hair growth with the help of patented high-tech plant substances, extend the growth cycle, and ensure a shinier mane!
And what if none of this helps?
If you follow these tips regularly and lead a healthy lifestyle, and still feel like your hair isn't growing properly, is dull, or even porous, you should consult a doctor. They can perform a blood test to determine whether you might be lacking nutrients that you can obtain through supplements or a dietary adjustment.
