Why the use of hair styling tools damage the hair?
There are various hot styling tools which will include:
- Curling irons
- Flocked rollers
- Flat irons
- Blow dryers
- Styling wands
- Hair steamers
In all these devices the high temperature is the common feature. It helps in removing the moisture, proteins, vitamins, and natural oils from hair which make the hair brittle.
Moreover, they can also burn the hair if you are not using them carefully or it can even damage them permanently. Even if you use them at a moderate level the hair can break down very easily. This is a fact that the use of hair styling tools can lead to hair loss. One of the risk factors is traction alopecia which occurs because of the styling tools.
Is there any way to minimize the damage from hot styling tools?
The best way is to protect the hair following the surgery is by not using the hot styling tools for a few months after the surgery. Here are some ways in which the damage can be minimized:
- Choose devices which have adjustable temperature
If you know the temperature of the styling tools then you can prevent the damage. Opt for high to medium or medium to low. It might be possible you have to spend extra time to style the hair but this will protect your hair follicles from stress & damage.
- Go with the option of air drying
After washing, it is important that you let the hair dry on its own as it is safer.
- Learn to work quickly with the tools
You need to learn how you can get the desired results by using the tools within a few minutes.
- Protecting the hair
While using the heat products you should use heat protectant sprays as this way the heat will not take away the nutrients.
