Bubble Hair

Did You Know That...

Processes like blow drying reduce the moisture content below its normal level and can be harmful to the health of one's hair. Hair dryers and other heated appliances first soften the keratin of the hair.

If the heat appliances are too hot, they can actually cause the water in the hair to boil, and tiny bubbles/spaces of steam then form inside the softened hair shaft. Eventually, the steam will create numerous tiny bubbles near the ends of your hair. The hair is thereby weakened, and may break altogether.

The result is the infamous "bubble hair" i.e. hair that is hollowed out, highly damaged, and prone to breakage.

Tip #1 When drying hair always use a medium heat, not high heat.
Tip #2 Don't blow dry on wet hair, air dry your hair first, then blow dry.
