I have over the years completely ruined my hair. The last few months it’s got to the point where it’s snapped that much I look like I have a mullet.
When I was younger, 20 odd years ago I had medium brown curly hair that I fried with the straighteners then proceeded to dye it platinum blonde.
I stopped getting scalp bleach and stuck to a darkish base with highlights . Always had to wear extensions as it was that damaged it looked awful on its own.
I only get a colour now on my roots and highlights every 5 weeks but she doesn’t touch the midlengths and ends with the bleach. I’m going grey too so need the root dyed and can’t just let my natural colour come through.
Hairdresser cant understand why it’s getting even worse either as she uses low vol.
It hasn’t been in good condition since I was a teenager despite me always using good expensive products.
last time it looked like it was growing was when I was pregnant 4 years ago.
My extensions are not near the top of my head just a weave at the back but it’s the hair on my crown and around my face that is snapping off .
Iv been to a trichologist as I had a dry scalp. She said I had a bit of scale and sold me a bottle of hermetic location spray that cost £150. Have not noticed a difference . She asked me about my ‘short layers’ I told her iv never got layers cut only ever got ends trimmed . The layers she was referring to were bits that have broken off.
Iv been taking florisene tablets but my last blood work was all normal.
Was using K18 for a while but stopped it incase it was the problem.
My hairs always been very damaged but not to this point.
Im thinking will I just have to dye it a dark brown and hope for the best but I really do not suit it dark it completely dulls me and im getting married next year.
Has anyone got any advice or been where iv been and managed to save their hair (or what was left of it )
