Answer 1

if you have relaxed your hair and you have ,breakage,hair loss,dull,brittle,dry,then you have your hair over processed.;meaning that you have your hair damage,the straightener ;either was too strong,or you leave it in your hair for more time than it was expected,(and if you have tinted previously ,it will make a faster reaction in your hair)so ,what relaxers do is ;change the aspect of your hair,(i mean,from curly to straight)but you need to take in consideration,if your hair is fine,tinted,coarse .etc.;to choose the best formula for you.anyway,you need to reconstruct your hair again,(conditioning),and if it is extremely damaged,you should cut it to stop the breakage,because your hair has become fragile,sensitive,and damaged

Answer 2

Well, being a person that hates her thick curly hair and loves to straighten it, straightners damage your hair because the heat can be so strong that it will damage the follicles that give it its shine and health...thats why many people have it poofy and with split ends, this can also make it fallout bc it is like if you burned it, and if it is burned you would notice that when your hair is straight, one or another hair might be curly looking thus simulating that you might have left the iron on too long or that you are straightening it too often....thats why it is recommended that you only do it aleast once a month

Answer 3

The drastic heat that a straightener gives to your hair will cause split ends and possibly dry out your hair. This will take some time to happen--maybe three to four months. Simply get your hair trimmed often and use a deep conditioner to keep hair moisturized. I have been using hair straighteners for years and I do these two things and have not run into any problems.

Answer 4

Hair straighteners can straighten your hair and depending on how long/short your hair is, will depend on how long you will have to hold the straightener on your hair to get as straight as you want it (just like a culing iron when you try to curl your hair) Straighening your hair every day can do some serious damage to it, so help help stop the damage before it starts, you may want to use a heat protectorant on your hair such as Thermasilk protecting spray. The spray is cheap and works great!

Answer 5

Hair straighteners are notorious for drying our your hair and that can lead to split ends. Some of the cheaper models have bad thermostats and can get extremely hot and even burn your hair! Yuck! It's always a great idea to buy a heat resistant leave-in cream and use that before you use the hair straightener this will keep your hair moisturized.

Answer 6

Straighteners pretty much just straighten your hair (thus the name). As far as damage goes, what it does is dry out your hair, so it can't hold a curl. No serious damage, just be sure to moisturize every once in a while

Answer 7

The heat from the straightners/curling irons/blow dryers cause your hair to become brittle which causes split ends and breakage. It also causes your hair to become dry. BE CAREFUL!!! ALWAYS ALWAYS use a heat defense spray, such as Tresemee Instant Heat Tamer or V05 Miracle Mist (both protect hair against damages from heat). And if you are getting breakage and/or split ends, use Dove Therapy shampoo and conditioner. It repairs damage. For extra damage treatment, use Dove Repairing Treatment Conditioner. Believe me all the products I have mentioned will get rid of and prevent damage.

Answer 8

Hair straighteners can burn your hair if you hold it on for too long. It won't make your hair fall out but it can damage you hair by making it brittle. So my advice is to only blow dry your hair. If you blow dry it properly then you shouldn't need to straighten it. But if you still want to use the straightener then use a heat protective product before you straighten it.

Answer 9

No, not that sort of damage. They can make your hair more brittle though.

Basically, your hair shafts are very delicate. Using intense heat damages your hair follicles, which can make them brittle or dry.

My advice? Don't use a straightner every day. Instead use it once or twice a week. Also, try to use a hot oil treatment once a week. It will really help to repair any damage.
