What To Do If Your Hair Lacks Moisture & Protein Due To Strenuous Styling

There’s only one rule of haircare and it’s that your haircare routine needs to evolve and change with time. Using the right haircare products is obviously important, but listening to what your hair is telling you is even more important! Sometimes, our hair begins to feel rough and fragile. Split ends become a regular visitor and no amount of conditioner seems to be doing the trick. What then?

In today’s world, hairstyling has become incredibly popular. You no longer need to visit your nearest salon to get your hair blow-dried, straightened, or permed because you can do it at home! It’s convenient, easy, and affordable! However, there’s a downside too. Regularly styling your hair at home can cause heat damage to your hair. 

Healthy hair comprises two elements — moisture and protein. Neither of which can exist without the other. Strenuous styling of hair on a regular basis can easily mess up this balance. In a situation like this, using the right haircare products, like professional shampoos and hair setting sprays, and following the right advice can make all the difference. 

So here are some ways to restore the moisture and protein levels in your hair:

Use Keratin Shampoo

If your hair has been feeling unusually brittle and unhealthy, switch to a keratin shampoo instead. This will provide your hair with a regular boost of hydrolyzed keratin. Keratin is a protein present in the hair; it is responsible for making your hair strong and healthy. It also promotes growth. The Godrej Professional Keratin Rich Shampoo is one such unique formula that can be easily absorbed by hair cuticles and result in strong, soft, and glossy hair. 

Use Keratin Mask

Keratin products like keratin shampoo should always be followed up by a hydrating keratin mask. A keratin mask is the perfect haircare product for delivering moisture and protein to your damaged hair. The Godrej Professional keratin mask is a sulphate-free formula that makes it easier for your hair cuticles to absorb moisture and protein. It can be easily absorbed by hair cuticles, thereby making your strands less frizzy and dry, and more manageable. It can be used by both men and women and is also suitable for coloured hair. 

Get a Keratin Treatment

Using keratin haircare products is a great at-home technique to boost the moisture and protein in your hair. However, sometimes it might not be enough. In such situations, consider going for a keratin treatment. A keratin treatment directly works on the proteins in the hair and repairs damage. It also makes hair smoother, less frizzy, and more manageable. A keratin treatment provides a long-term benefit to your hair that can last up to 6 months. Consider trying Godrej Professional’s unique formaldehyde-free Kerasmooth treatment.

Another way to protect your hair from the inevitable damage caused by hair styling is by using haircare products that reduce the heat impact. For example, you can consider using heat protectant hair serums before blow-drying, straightening, or curling your locks. Additionally, you can also reduce the heat while using the hairdryer to minimize heat damage.
