How You May Be Causing Hair Breakage.

I’m not saying it’s your fault, but it’s your fault. Do you experience serious hair breakage? How much hair do you see on the floor or on your comb? This must be the most frustrating thing. Breakage means that your hair will not grow the way you want it to. Breakage makes one feel like their hair is not growing. Breakage means less volume. But you could be causing the breakage. How?

1. Over-manipulation

The song of manipulation has been sung all over again, but for a reason. Manipulating hair, always combing, blow-drying, twisting, braiding, combing again, prodding here and there, playing with it.

Avoid doing too much with your hair. You will love the results.

With a specific blend of ingredients, this detangler will detangle even the toughest of knots.
