Damaged hair is a doozy. Whether caused by heat styling, hair coloring (especially bleaching), or environmental stress, the dry, brittle texture is tricky to manage and can make us feel pretty down about our ‘do. Regular trims are a great way to remove damage at the ends, but what about the hair we actually want to keep?
