exposure to high heat weakens hair structure and causes breakage

Thermal Damage, also known as Heat Damage, refers to the harm caused to hair when it is exposed to high temperatures from styling tools like flat irons, curling irons, and blow dryers. This damage can lead to weakened hair structure, resulting in dryness, breakage, split ends, and loss of natural curl pattern. For professionals, it is important to note that thermal damage can compromise the integrity of the hair's cuticle layer, making it more susceptible to further damage and reducing its overall resilience.
