Are your locks hair-commercial-perfect or fried and frizzy? Or somewhere in between? You know the many ways you can hurt your hair, but how much damage are you actually causing? Take this quiz to find out.
Quiz: Is Your Hair Damaged?
this is what i got: Abused but Resilient
Your hair doesn't quite swing over your shoulder in slow motion, but it's also not completely fried. You probably know you do things that hurt your hair, but you're also conscientious enough not to overdo it.
To kick it up a notch and get a truly healthy, gorgeous mane, you don't have to give up as much as you think. "You can blow-dry every day and have beautiful, healthy hair. You just have to know how to do it," says Roman Kusayev, a stylist at the New York City Butterfly Studio. First, remember to use a protective setting spray like TRESemme Instant Heat Tamer Styling Spray ($3.99). Also remember not to apply heat to any section for too long. Keep the styling tool moving at all times. Brian Thompson, senior scalp care expert at the Philip Kingsley Trichological Centre, warns against using a flat iron at any temperature over 110 degrees, or the low setting. It might take a little longer to style your hair, but isn't that a sacrifice you're willing to make?
not good right?
