    physical harm to hair from brushing or heat styling

    Mechanical damage refers to the physical harm caused to hair fibers due to external forces such as brushing, combing, or styling with heat tools. This type of damage can lead to split ends, breakage, and a rough hair texture. For professionals, understanding mechanical damage is crucial for advising clients on proper hair care techniques to minimize harm and maintain hair health.
