Understanding hair breakage
Brittle hair is the sign of a weakened hair fiber. It breaks easily, becomes dull, rough to the touch and difficult to style.
There are many reasons for this:
- Excessive use of heating appliances,
- Repeated coloring or discoloration,
- Keratin deficiency,
- Pollution, stress or hormonal imbalance,
- Overly aggressive care products or sulfated shampoos.
To restore strong, silky hair, it's not enough to “repair” the surface: you need to work deep down, from the roots to the ends.
Signs of brittle hair
- Split or frayed tips
- Rough lengths, no elasticity
- Hair that breaks when brushed
- Loss of shine, straw-like appearance“
- Difficulty pushing or length stagnation
As soon as these signs appear, a fortifying and nourishing routine becomes essential.
Natural treatments to strengthen hair fibre
1. Repairing plant oils
Castor, argan, avocado and jojoba oils nourish and strengthen hair's natural keratin.
They penetrate to the heart of the fiber to restore its structure and prevent breakage.
💡 Tip: apply them as an oil bath before shampooing, once or twice a week.
2. Homemade fortifying masks
A blend of egg yolk, honey and olive oil provides protein and natural shine.
These amino acid-rich ingredients strengthen the fiber and seal the hair scales.
3. Aloe vera to moisturize without weighing down the skin
A veritable concentrate of water and minerals, aloe vera gel moisturizes, softens and smoothes brittle hair.
Applied to the lengths, it acts as a natural repairing treatment.
