We will be looking into some great tips and heatless hairstyles to protect damaged hair.

Pre-Styling Damaged Hair for Heatless Hairstyles

Before styling your damaged hair, ensure you give it a little extra nourishment to prevent any further damage. Consider a hydrating hair mask which is sure to disguise some of the damage. Many salon masks are so expensive. If you’re looking for an effective hair treatment, look no further than your own kitchen.

If you’re in a rush and don’t have the time to let a mask soak, spread some serum throughout the hair before you begin your style. Avoid the roots, as you don’t want them to look greasy. Brush your hair well before styling to get smoother looking hair.
Perhaps your hair is brittle from overbleaching. It could be time to ditch the blonde and go back to your roots. If you’re wondering on how best to approach this, Schwarzkopf’s guide on how to go back to your natural hair color is a must. Who says blondes have more fun anyway? People with their natural hair color have fun too!

Hairstyles for Damaged Hair  – Sleek Bun

A sleek low bun is the ultimate sophisticated and simple hair style. Part your hair in the middle and put your hair behind your ears. Smooth down your hair using a hairbrush to ensure there are no bumps. Gather your hair at the back and twist your hair into a low bun and secure it with a hair tie.

Messy Bun

A messy bun looks so carefree and put together at the same time. Tie your hair up into a high slicked back ponytail. Begin to twist your hair around where your hair is secured and secure it with bobby pins. Continue to do this until you have a loose donut bun. Pull some strands loose to frame your face for a soft pretty look.

Half up Half Down

A half up half down hairstyle is great if you want to have your hair flowing around your shoulders but out of your face. Simply section your hair at your eyes and tie up the top half into a small ponytail. This hairstyle looks great with some fun accessories if you are looking to distract from hair damage!

Braid

A simple braid is a chic option to protect your hair from hair damage. Section your hair into three sections and get to work on your braid. If you are one of the lucky few who can manage to do a French braid on yourself, then opt for this for sure!
