How to Fix Hair Breakage- Damaged Hair to Healthy Hair Care Tips

[@wendyalexi2225]

BEST HAIR TIP: SILK CAP to wear at night! Way better than the silk pillowcase even, my hair is so smooth when I wake up now. Everyone needs to know about this!

[@shanhare76]

Where do you get a silk cap?

[@Joannakatharina]

Yes where do you get one?

[@lenalander7001]

I also got one from Silke London!!! Its amazing! My hair seemed to never grow because it would always break. But now that I used the cap my hair is growing so fast because my strands and ends are protected from breakage that is happening when sleeping

[@ChrisSqrd]

Amazon has lots of silk caps.

[@queenkoi]

I use lilysilk caps but all are good if the material is good ❤

[@rn387]

Wash hair less Microfiber towel/ Cotten t shirt and no rubbing No tight hairstyles Use satin scrunchesc Protective sleep styles Soft bristle brushes And wide tooth combs Keep hair conditioned in between washes

I’m glad you’re not one of those people who’s like “no heat, no bleaching” because for some of us, that’s not possible. I have hair that really wants to be curly but just can’t seem to cross that bridge so I have to straighten it at least 1 time a week. Anyway, thanks for the tips

Hello bleaching hair when you are naturally blonde or dark blonde is not like bleaching hair from dark or dark brown to blonde 😖😖that's literally kill hair...nice day😍🥰

[@sonjaforrester9255]

Yes my hair is almost curly or very wavy in the back and straight on the front sides. I look like a weird puppy! I have to.blow dry and or straighten!

[@leemealz6088]

@@sonjaforrester9255 My hair is exactly the same!! I was beginning to think I was the only one! I even tried the curly girl method to try to even out the waves all over but all it did was make the wavy bits curly and the straight bits still straight but frizzy. So I ended up looking worse.

[@sonjaforrester9255]

@@leemealz6088 I am 47 and I think it's hormones because after having my son at 40 it gets worse and more frizzy. The back looks good if I wash and air dry but the sides are straight a d nuts hang. It's so sad because it takes more time than I want to spend on hair. I hate dealing with my hair. I would rather do skincare!

I’ve learned so much from your videos, Abbey, thank you for all you share! Been super down about my hair breakage lately and going to make a much more strict effort to stop with heat styling for awhile, stop tying my hair back so tightly, and maybe even condition throughout the week (I only wash/condition once a week right now) to see it it helps. Heartless curl methods, here I come!

[@annaizbicka4594]

Hi Abbey! Love your videos! I gotta say, for all ladies that started bleaching their hair - bleach somehow increases your hair porosity. Having said that, though I have straight hair I tried some conditioners and masks dedicated for curly hair and, DAMN! My hair never looked better. I think that’s because conditioners dedicated to curly hair have a lot of humectants and emollients. If you have bleached hair or damaged hair you need to make sure you have the balance of all. Proteins, emollients and humectants.

[@AbbeyYung]

Yes it does! That’s amazing.

[@juliecolleran1412]

I cannot go a week without washing my hair but what I do is put my hair in a ponytail and just wash the top part of my scalp where I tend to get oily since the rest of my hair can go longer without washing. (I then condition just the ends) It has made a huge difference!

[@AbbeyYung]

Yay that’s great!

[@Cannabidragon]

OMG!!! Thank you for this video!!!!! I sooo needed this information!!!! I have been struggling with so much breakage and am on a healthy hair journey also!!! The hard part it that now that I am 42 my hair started growing out of my scalp curly all of a sudden. They said it's because I had my Dad's curly gene dormant. Well it's not dormant anymore!! I really am so appreciative of all of the information in this video as I go from having stick-straight hair, to now curl hair (Once my straight ends are all cut off lol) 💜

[@joeleeashley3853]

Hello, what products would you recommend or suggest for thin, fine frizzy hair? I don't use a hair dryer, I let it dry naturally. I wash it once a week. Please let me know. Thanks

[@clipinqueen]

You really did your research! LOL. I love that you mention water as damage inflicting. A lot of people don't realize that. What I find confusing though, is how do we prevent the damage of washing while keeping the scalp clean? So many people nowadays use the dry shampoos and oils daily to avoid 'washing', but then that leads to buildup of product on the scalp that ends up clogging the follicles! It becomes overwhelming to form a hair strategy while thinking of all of this. LOL. Thanks again - your hair is beautiful!

[@AbbeyYung]

Haha I sure did! Some of it is inevitable. We have to keep our scalp clean! So for me minimizing exposure to shampoo by washing once a week has been the most helpful

[@queenkoi]

Coconut oil before washing has been shown to be helpful. I have done that for many years and find it works well 😃

[@atlanteanmermaid3557]

I love your videos about hair product reviews. Currently I'm usually function of beauty and its definitely making my hair look healthier and feel really soft. I only use the shampoo and conditioner because of how expensive it is so I'm gonna switch to Hairitage products which I'm so excited for. I feel like my hair does break pretty easily and it only gets to a certain length then stops growing. So I'm definitely gonna change some things in my routine.

[@jocelynnelson]

I live in FL and love the beach so the first two culprits are definitely something I have to deal with. Wide brimmed hats and hair oils are so helpful!

[@milagrosv21]

How do you style your hair throughout the week ? Also, how do you style it to go to sleep?

[@AbbeyYung]

I’m going to do a video on that! But for sleeping a loose twist 😊

[@madnessaurus]

I've bent dyed my hair and never straighten, blow dry or anything like that and my hair is so damaged and dry. I love humidity though 😭 I also wet it everyday too refresh the curls, do sit in the sun without a hat, don't plait my hair at night and just let the elements destroy it really. So it's definitely not just heat/styling, dying, bleaching. I feel like my hair is and looks more unhealthy than the ladies i know who do all of those things BUT the damage and dryness actually amplify the curls for me personally. Definitely going back on a healing journey, my hair used to be enough to use as a scarf, I want to get it close to that again. Thank you so much for the information and for the research, gathering and sharing of it!

[@kelseyp3163]

That moment when your damaged hair still looks beautiful 😫💚

[@juliannes.5453]

Have you looked into the effects of dimethicone (or silicones in general) in haircare? Personally have very similar hair type to yours. I’ve eliminated almost all silicones from my hair care products, but I noticed many of the products you recommend do have silicones. Especially with finer hair, silicones can easily cause a lot of build up that weighs the hair down. Would love to see you look into this and potentially do a video!!

[@Andrea-dm4gd]

most silicones are modified to not build up in the hair and are easily cleaned, water soluble, and light weight. Stop letting marketing companies convince you you need to pay 20 dollars for a mediocre conditioner but some how is worth it bc it doesn't have silicones. Buy high quality products for fine hair and ignore the silicone demonization is a marketing strategy/scam.

[@manonbiger268]

Lab muffin science (I think that is her yt name) has made great article and video about the science behind silicones :)

[@rebeccashappy3001]

Julianne, silicones are necessarily bad for your hair, many salon products include them! Silicone locks in moisture and can protect your hair from pollution and other damaging elements. I’d just say always use salon products in general and you will be better off!

[@krystademilio1256]

@@Andrea-dm4gd ohmygod pleased stop accusing people. She is talking from ACTUAL personal experience. Stop getting offended when someone doesn't use silicones. It DOESN'T mean you can't use them BUT there are actual people who have hair and scalp that silicones build up on.

Hi! I love your videos and this one was really great! But you mentioned sitting in the sun and UV rays as being one source of breakage but you never circled back about it with a product that protects against that. I think it would be really helpful to research UV protection for hair that doesn’t weigh it down but really works!

[@madelineasmr926]

My hair is extremely damaged because of previous bleaching, and in order to maintain a nice color I’ve colored it back to a natural looking color. However my ends are so damaged and even using heat once a week makes my hair even worse. I’m going to have to do a “clean girl” ponytail which is a tight hairstyle because that is the only heatless style I can do that looks clean and professional. Otherwise my hair is a frizzy awful mess that makes me feel super unconfident. Wish someone would talk about heatless hairstyles that actually look good and don’t damage hair. Otherwise, this video is super helpful, I’m definitely going to try some of the products you recommend.

[@sonjaforrester9255]

I really worry about protein over use. I can't wait for your video. Do you know if certain hair is more susceptible to overdosing on protein. I think a year or so ago that might have been my issue. It's so hard to figure out. A d I have very fine hair so I can't find to much that moisturizes without weighing down. It's a bummer! And heat seems to damage my hair worse than others because of the thinness of it. Thanks age!

Hey I just wanted to give you love because I have the same hair type. It was knee length before I had my baby monster and then I cut it to hip length.

Then on April 2nd I'm going back for highlights and lowlights, should I also add in some olaplex once I do that? OR do you think that I might have to much damage to get it colored?

Your videos are great. I'm on the mend of repairing my hair. I had thick, healthy hair about 3 years ago when I wasn't in the sun and ocean so much. Now I spend almost everyday of the summer months at the beach and on the boat. I took hair of my skin, but other then having my "its a 10" in my purse, I really neglected my hair. Since then, this winter I've made a lot of changes to try to repair my hair. I've gotten down to washing twice per week, purchased a satin pillow case, using olaplex 0,3,6,7, and the ordinary oils. Sorry for the long-winded comment. As summer approaches I will soon be in salt water often, so I will have to start washing more along with trying to hydrate my hair and hide it from the sun. Other than a hat and hair masks are there any products you would recommend. You are super knowledgeable, I've learned so much from you! Any tips are appreciated!

By using these cheap pink Amazon combs on your hair you undo a lot of your great haircare just by combing your hair with them. Combs and Brushes need to be of excellent quality! Good quality combs need to be hand-sawn, handcut and hand polished so that they have perfectly rounded and burr-free teeth which will be gentle to hair and scalp. Cheap industrial made combs - like the ones you showed in the video - are injection molded from plastic and do have jagged imperfections - often invisible to the eye - which will cut or shred your hair as well as cause split ends. The same goes for brushes. Avoid brushes with ball tips. Most cheap brushes have ball tips. They will snag the hair and rip it out. Most ball tipped brushes have ball tips that are of a different material from the brush. Over time, the two materials will gradually deform and separate, so you get cracks and wrinkles at the edge of the ball. Those cracks and wrinkles will catch hair and cause damage. Eventually, the two materials separate enough that just running the brush through your hair is enough to dislodge the ball. Next problem, most ball tipped brushes are injection molded from plastic. This means there are thin ridges at the mold edge. Just like on a plastic comb, those ridges can be sharp enough to cut or shred your hair, causing damage. Depending on where the mold edges are, there could be none of these near your hair, or lots. Another common sort of ball tipped brush has bristles that are wedged into place, either on a flexible pad, or a small bristle anchors a larger one on a hard plastic surface. Hair can get caught between a bristle and the flexible pad, and hair can get caught between the small bristle and the larger one. Invest into a good quality hairbrush! It may be quite expensive but will last a lifetime if you take good care of it. Buy something likeKoh-I-Noor high-quality hand made Italian Brushes or the high-quality Kent Brushes made in the UK. For high quality combs I recommend the German Hercules-Sägemann brand which has been making handmade premium combs made out of 100% vulcanised natural material for over 160 years. The high-quality combs are hand-sawn, hand-cut and hand polished and will last a lifetime. And wear a silk hair cap at night!

@@AbbeyYung yesss,it was growing nicely and then all of a sudden i saw my ends get sooo dry. i just had to cut a bunch of it off,used a clarifying shampoo and started using only hydrating professional masks for 3 weeks straight (so 6 times in a row) before i was ready to try reintroducing protein to my hair. i love the redken masks so i used their hydrating and protein masks (gold and blue)-they're really great💁🏼‍♀️

When I see videos “I’m using rice water every day for a month” I’m like please girl DONT. Been there, my hair was crispy

[@catsav1]

Try the curlsmith double cream deep quencher deep conditioner. It has no protein and will give your hair a boost of moisture to balance it out. I used it when my hair was in protein overload and it worked really well.

[@michhenley]

@@scarlettb562 your only supposed to use rice water once a week or month As it's very strong

Ordered olaplex during this video never tried it before and looking forward to it!

How do I know if my breakage is from a protein build-up? How do I prevent a protein build-up while using protein-based products in my hair? If my hair is due to protein build-up, what products do I use?

[@cannibalcatgirl]

I’ve started washing my hair only once a week as apposed to every day. As well as not letting my hair air dry and stay wet longer. Also braiding my hair before bed. It’s made a big difference.

[@heatherhamilton4201]

I thought I knew it all! I didn’t know that you should keep your hair loose lol tied back while sleeping- I thought loose was best! Thanks for the great tips! 💗

[@Krystidressler]

My breakage is due to my 1&2 year old boys that pull and literally rip out so much of my hair every day, and it leaves my hair with little bits that regrow at the top :(

[@queenkoi]

Baby monsters wreak havoc on the hair 😆

[@Ace-gq8xp]

Im a guy and my hair gets just down to my shoulders, and breakage is super annoying when youre trying to grow it out. My entire hairline is under 4 inches long, while everything else is about a foot long. Im really hoping this helps my hair so thanks in advance

[@roseydrama1477]

Did it help?

[@angelamelum4304]

Great video. It’s so frustrating to try to figure out if I need more moisture or protein. I have VERY thin fine hair. Using the “thin hair” shampoos is making things worse.

[@AbbeyYung]

Thank you! I totally know what you mean it can be confusing and products that are meant for our hair aren’t always what works best

[@deannadevaney2968]

HOLY $HIT!! THANK YOU! Just found you. I have been dealing / struggling with tangled hair my whole life and have been trying to find WHAT ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH I NEED TO DO. Even the detanglers (sprays/creams) don't work. So I'm curious about the products you mentioned!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@sarahilana3070]

can you do a video explaining your thoughts on ingredients and why you dont care about parabens, SLS, Sulphates, silicones, etc , esp silicone since silicone masks the hair and is wax and doesnt actually penatrate and nourish the hair etc, THX

[@mulliganstew72]

For me, I have Thick/heavy/wavy/frizzy/huge/heavily layered/bleached/graying/Unmanageable tremendous mop of hair and if I don’t use sulfites to shampoo with then build up from products does not get removed. I find a mandatory otherwise I am washing my hair five times which defeats the purpose. Silicones smooth & protect my hair from breakage & Splitting and make it more manageable. I tried to do without but I can’t. That’s my two cents for all it’s worth! I wish I had other options.

[@sonjaforrester9255]

So this makes me think maybe your hair textbook could.answer by age old question. Is it better to wash or use heat? Which is less damaging... washing and blow drying on lowest setting or using a flat iron. Because I have to chose one every day!

[@anap3008]

why do you have to do one every day? if you can, the best option would be to wash and blow dry on a low setting and then protect the style while you sleep either with a satin cap or by gently securing the hair to stretch the days between your washing/styling days. so for example, if you wash on Monday, see if you can hold off washing and styling again until Wednesday or Thursday.

[@sonjaforrester9255]

@@anap3008 because I have very fine hair that when I sleep it creases and flips out on the bottom but not uniformly. I have just above should bob and if I secure it creases if I don't it flips. I don't have to use flat iron all the way around but just usually the ends. I do only was 3 days a week but it looks pretty gross between because it's so flat fine and cowlicks it's not fun!

[@imawakemymindisalive13]

I get insane breakage because I have fine hair. Seriously, so fine, it breaks so easily. I have been on a hair repair journey since 2020, when I found out that washing my hair every other day with Pantene shampoo wan t exactly healthy. Since then I have invested in an oil based conditioner and sulfate free shampoo and started washing once a week and saw great results. Even now that I joined swim team (I do a ton of chlorine prevention though) it is still looking better.

[@imawakemymindisalive13]

ha ha. ha. haha. that conditioner gave me protein overload, i quit swim team, and i’m using a silk scarf for sleeping. my god i really knew nothings then. i have learned so much

[@lingam7625]

How about applying heat for deep condition treatments? Their are steam caps or salon-esque blow dryer hoods.

[@barbarawalker3220]

You’re hair is so pretty!! Don’t use Olaplex!! It’s horrible because it’s just a silicone attractor. When silicone coats those weak spots, it makes it so nutrients and moisture can’t get to the hair and it causes breakage from the silicone buildup. K18 is a much better product that is silicone free

[@Nana-ye3lu]

What about the olaplex 7 bonding oil? I found it working with me as heat protection and a I put it on my dry ends every 2 days and it made my hair softer and not as dry, I've been dealing with breakage before I started using it so I don't think it the main problem?

[@Me_Caity]

Not necessarily. Silicone is not always a bad thing.

[@KimberlyPowell02]

I love Olaplex, and the opposite happened. K18 actually dried my hair out from the high alcohol levels it was very disappointing after hearing so many good things. The only product that was effective was the damage shield shampoo and conditioner. It was moisturizing and has good slip

[@katkaryzma1780]

Treatments start at 7:08. She recommends all Olaplex products. Prior to that she just talks about things that damage hair.

[@lunavexa_]

Careful with olaplex. Too much protein is very very bad on super weak damaged hair. Olaplex is extremely strong and mine broke off right up to the root using olaplex - this happened to 4-5 other girls I know
