Stressed Hair

Stressed Hair Treatment

Chemically damaged or hair exposed to outdoor stress factors doesn't retain the same fibre structure and health as natural hair. These high quality shampoos, conditioners and hair treatments will help.

Stressed hair treatments are usually based on essential oil combinations that help repair dryness, brittleness, split ends, and breakage. It's important to regularly provide stressed hair with all the nutrients it needs. To prevent more serious issues, all hair that is not at its best deserves special treatment.

How to Prevent Stressed Hair Damage

It is of course ideal to prevent stressed hair when possible, rather than to heal or restore. If you know that you are applying stressful procedures to hair such as bleach or use frequent heat, there will be some damage to hair. For example, applying a heat protection spray to hair will help prevent hair being damaged from straightening.

Consulting a hair professional before bleaching is highly recommended because not all hair should be bleached. After bleaching, there are also important steps to take to repair bleached hair.

If you are concerned about the condition of your hair or hair you are treating, chat with our hair experts on whether a keratin treatment might also be worth considering.

You can offer recommendations but it is always up to the client to adhere to them independently. The hair won't be as stressed if the salon care becomes a standard that's applied at home.

What Causes Stress to the Hair?

Most bleached hair procedures, including hairstyles with foils, drastic highlights, and frequent colouring, alter the hair structure. It makes it more prone to breakage and split ends. A perm will also reduce hair elasticity and shine.

Alternatively, certain health issues related to hormones or lack of minerals can cause dull-looking hair. Therefore, it is crucial to feed such hair with nutrients that are not called essentials for no reason. They provide basic food from the outside and from the inside.

AMR provides a range of powerful products to fight stressed hair issues. These include products based on organic components, blonde specialised treatments and moisturising products for gentle and repairing hair care.
