5 tips to safely style your hair

From blow drying to straightening your hair, your tresses go through a lot when you style your hair leading to damage  

Here are some useful tips to safely style your hair

Use heat-resistant spray

Make sure to use a heat-resistant spray on your hair before using heating tools such as a straightener or a curler to style your hair to prevent damage

Use the right hairbrush

Opt for an appropriate hairbrush that suits your hair type. Brushing your hair with the right comb allows you to style it safely without damaging your hair strands

Avoid over-brushing your hair

Brushing or combing your hair repeatedly can lead to hair fall and split ends. Minimise hair brushing and instead, apply a nourishing serum to keep hair in one place

Avoid brushing wet hair

Brushing wet hair can cause hair loss as your hair is vulnerable to breakage, split ends and damage when it is wet

Avoid using heating tools on wet hair

Avoid applying styling tools such as straighteners and curlers to wet or partially wet hair as it can trap the vapour between your hair and scalp and lead to dry and frizzy hair
