DO HAIR DRYERS DAMAGE YOUR HAIR?

Hair dryers are a fantastic invention! They help us to dry, direct, volumise and style our hair.

But using them in the wrong way can be damaging to our hair; and in extreme cases, they can cause hair breakage and lead to eventual hair loss.

If you’re using a hair dryer the correct way, you shouldn’t worry. Honestly. Here are some of the mistakes that you might be making and how to resolve them.

WHEN? The first thing is knowing when to use a hair dryer.

The worst thing to do is to use your dryer on soaking wet hair. When your hair is wet, it’s more susceptible to breakage. Towel dry your hair to remove the excess water before drying with a hair dryer.

TEMPERATURE I always say to use a “medium heat, fast speed,” and I really mean it!

A concentrated amount of hot hair can cause breakage to the hair, and damage to the root and the scalp. Remember, healthy hair starts from a healthy scalp.

These are Some of my favourite pre-styler products – all with heat protection technology.
