Mistake No. 7: Not giving your hair the TLC it deserves
Mistake No. 7: Not giving your hair the TLC it deserves If you wake up every morning and reach for your hot tool, you might want to consider your go-to hairstyle. Applying this frequency of heat exposure to your strands every day is too much, according to experts. "Understand your hair's limitations and give it breaks when you can," says Lopez. He recommends switching to a gentler hair cleanser and amping up the moisture level with weekly hair masks so that you begin to like your natural flow. "If you're committed to heat styling, understand the stress you're putting on your hair and learn how to combat it," he adds. "Use a reviving, repairing shampoo and conditioner like the ones from Kenra Platinum Revive System — the shampoo, conditioner, treatment and oil work together to give you the right levels of moisture and protein to keep hair healthy and breakage at bay."
