Tips To Take Care Of Damaged Hair 
  • Make a conditioner at home by mixing egg and olive oil. Use this on your hair, once a week, for about a month. To make one application, whisk an egg yolk with two tablespoon of olive oil, in a bowl. Apply this on your hair, especially focusing on the ends. Leave this on for a few minutes and then rinse off with water, before shampooing your hair.
  • Get your hair trimmed at least once in a month. These trims will help you get rid of damaged hair and will encourage faster hair growth. Getting regular trims has proved to be a very effective way to get rid of damaged hair.
  • While using a hair dryer, try a diffuser setting at low-heat or cool setting. Using a diffuser in a low-heat setting also helps in untangling and treating frizzy and brittle hair. With hair irons, try to use the lowest heat setting.
  • If you like swimming, remember that this can be one of the reasons for damaged hair. Make sure to shampoo and rinse your hair properly after every swim. Try to do this as soon as possible, after you have taken a dip.
  • Dry and damaged hair can benefit from Vitamin E treatments. Make your own vitamin-enriched shampoo with the help of Vitamin E capsules. Break open five to six capsules, and combine the content with your favorite shampoo. This will make your locks look shiner, smoother and much healthier.
  • Deep conditioning and hot oil treatments are the best aids for damaged hair. To get the best result out of your conditioner, tie a hot damp towel around your head after applying it on your hair. It will help the conditioner to penetrate deeper into your hair. After a few minutes, rinse it off.
