When your hair is damaged it tends to lack shine, suppleness and vitality. The hair shaft is often damaged from the inside which can ultimately cause breakage and split ends. When this occurs the exposed protective cuticle layer is roughened and can then separate and break away from the hair. Unprofessional home colour, bleach or perming treatments can cause fundamental inner core hair fibre damage. Externally the cuticle layer (once coarse) will lose its lustre and become difficult to brush and manage. Internal tears and breaks appear in the hair fibre and the hair often becomes porous, loses its elasticity and can lead to fracture.
It is recommended to use restructuring products such as System Professional Repair Shampoo or Kerastase Bain de Force to nourish and protect the hair from the inside out, thus giving renewed vitality.
Intensive repair creams such as System Professional 2.2 Repair Cream or Aveda Damage Remedy Intensive treatment offer instant deep conditioning, which can be used 2-3 times per week as a reparation regime.
