Flat Iron and Thinning Hair

Posted by guest, Oct 9th, 2008

Does your hair get thinner and thinner after straightened hair several times? Here some suggestions related how to choose a flat iron and take care of the thinner hair.

Q: Since I bought my new iron, my hair has been getting thinner and thinner. Should I buy a new iron? My friend said a ceramic one works the best. Is that true? Or is there something I can use to make my hair thicker/thicker-looking?

A
: First, you should make the connection between your thinning hair and your new flat iron. This would indicate that whether the flat iron damaged your hair and caused breakage. If this is the illness, buying a “better flat iron” would not be the solution.
 
Before you search the solution, there are a number of questions such as “What is the current condition of your hair? Is it dry or frizzy or both? Are there any other signs of damage? Have you had other chemical processes? Have you relaxed or straightened chemically or permed your hair? Have you bleached your hair before? Has it been colored repeatedly?” These are all factors which could result in hair damage when combined with the use of flat irons.
 
If the thinning hair problem caused by breakage and damage due to the styling with flat iron. You should stop flat ironing the hair. If your hair is breaking by heating damage, you should have a regimen of deep conditioning and moisturizing to restore some strength and resilience to your hair.
 
If the thinning hair problem doesn’t show evidence it's because of breakage, you might be suffering from a alopecia. You should see the doctor to diagnose the cause of the thinning hair problem. Chronic illness, allergic conditions and hormonal changes could result in thinning hair.
