Trim Your Hair

The first step in repairing damaged hair is to get rid of any split ends. Trimming your hair regularly will prevent split ends from traveling up the hair shaft and causing more damage. Be sure to book regular trims at our Cheltenham salon to keep your hair in great condition.

Use Gentle Hair Cleansing Products

Supermarket shampoos that promise shine and are heavily perfumed can actually cause damage to the health of your hair. Using a harsh shampoo can strip your hair of its natural oils, causing it to become dry and brittle. Switch to a gentle shampoo that is sulfate-free and contains natural moisturising ingredients. If possible, use lukewarm water to rinse your hair, as hot water can further damage your hair.

Deep Condition Regularly

Deep conditioning treatments are a great way to repair damaged hair. Book in for a salon treatment at Martin & Phelps where our treatments nourish an hydrate stressed strands and restore condition and shine to your hair. We can also recommend professional quality products to use at home to keep your hair supple and moisturised. 

Avoid Heat Styling

Heat styling tools like flat irons and curling irons can cause significant damage to your hair. Try to limit your use of heat styling tools and use a heat protectant spray before styling. If you must use a heat styling tool, use the lowest heat setting possible. 

Nourish Hair From Within

Eating a healthy diet can also help repair damaged hair. Make sure to eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, lean protein, and healthy fats. Foods like salmon, avocados, and almonds contain essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids and biotin, which can help strengthen and nourish your hair.
