Hair breakage happens when strands become weak and snap easily. There are 13 main causes, including too much heat from styling tools, chemical treatments like colouring, washing hair too often, and tight hairstyles. Poor diet lacking protein and vitamins also makes hair weak. Using harsh shampoos, sleeping on cotton pillowcases, and exposure to sun or hard water can damage hair. To prevent breakage, limit heat styling, use gentle shampoos, avoid tight hair ties, eat nutritious food, and trim hair regularly. Using oils like coconut and sleeping on silk pillowcases can help. Managing stress and protecting hair from sun also reduce damage. Small changes in hair care and diet can make hair stronger and healthier. (Updated 27 Aug 2025, 19:52 IST; source: link)
