Get your hair cut regularly, meaning every six to eight weeks. All hair gets damaged after a while. Get a trim of at least a quarter-inch. It will remove the base of the split ends and keep your hair healthy and growing strong.

Only have a professional apply color or chemicals. When coloring your hair, find the right stylist. I always search for the gentlest coloring agent for your hair needs, this is very important. Only professionals can apply chemicals correctly and buy the correct products. If you are going to be using chemicals on your hair, be sure to condition your hair more often.
Brushing and Combing – Many people don’t realize just how fragile the hair is at the ends. Being too rough with a brush or comb, or brushing or combing too often can damage your hair.
Washing and Drying – Incorrect washing and use of shampoos that are too harsh or contain certain ingredients can be damaging to your hair. Rubbing your hair with a towel to dry it can cause nasty damage to your hair. Using a hairdryer on your hair too often will also cause damage.
Deep condition regularly – If your conditioner regimen isn’t working, try a “deep condition” once or twice a month. This involves putting a leave-in conditioner and/or oil on your hair and leaving it in for a while. Oils like jojoba and coconut oil are fantastic for this.
Find out if the water you use to wash your hair is harmful. There can be damaging chemicals in the water you wash your hair with – mainly chlorine. There are filters that will reduce the amount of chlorine in your water. High concentrations of calcium carbonate can make your water “hard.” A water softening system will be most beneficial to your hair if you live in a hard water area.
