Are you unknowingly damaging your hair? Some daily mistakes can become serious. Certain common habits gradually damage your hair. What habits are harmful?

Wet Hair Brush

Brushing Wet Hair

Brushing wet hair

Wet hair is at its weakest. Brushing at this time causes hair to break and fall out.

Shampoo

Over-shampooing

Daily shampooing destroys hair’s natural oils, making hair dry and rough.

Heat Styling

Heat Styling

Excessive use of heat styling

Overusing straighteners, curlers or dryers damages hair structure and increases damage.

Tight Hair

Tying hair too tight

Daily tight hair tying, ponytails or buns weaken hair roots and increase hair fall.

Wrong Hair Brush

Using wrong comb

Plastic or poor-quality combs increase friction on hair, causing breakage and tangling. Wooden combs are considered safer.

Hair Oil

Not applying oil

Not oiling hair makes the scalp dry, reducing hair growth. For very oily skin, use oil at least 2-3 days a week.

Sleeping with Wet Hair
