If your hair feels weak and brittle
Extreme high-heat can instantly weaken the hair follicle, and heat styling is one of the leading reasons why your hair can feel dead after a once-over with a straightening iron. To fix the issue, go for a hair treatment that will tame frizziness and mend poor-quality tresses. The coolest part? This product from TRESemmé works only when you “activate” it with heat. Genius.

If your hair is snapping off
Colouring your hair is one of the most common reasons for hair snappage. “Always make sure you have a highly trained colourist who will help maintain the health of your hair,” says hairstylist Dermot O’Donnell of Christopher Hanna. For an at-home solution to strengthening hair, use a treatment that’ll improve the quality of each strand of hair over time. Try Kevin.Murphy Body.Mass, $49.95
If you’ve got split ends
Put your hands down immediately – the worst thing you could do to split ends is to pull it apart as it just weakens the hair follicle. The only solution to fixing this problem is to cut them off entirely. However, it’s also important to look after your hair from the get-go, to prevent them from popping up again in the future.
