Don't worry, this is perfectly normal. Hair straighteners, especially the good ones can heat up EXTREMELY high and this amount of concentrated heat on your hair is bound to cause damage over time.

You could try using a protection spray or serum but in the long run, the only thing you can do is to either stop straightening your hair completely until it's had a chance to recover or to just try to straighten your hair less often. I straightened my hair twice weekly for and a half years and haven't been able to since November because it was that badly damaged, it was getting shorter without being cut!!!!!

Don't worry, try to cut down on how often you straighten it and try using gel or mousse and it should start to improve over time.

try getting blow serum to put on your hair when you get outa the shower. also try getting those shampoo and conditioners that help with split ends. and to hide split ends spray hairspray into your hands when your done straightening and just put it over it should hide it - unless you have crappy hairspray.

hope this helps!! :] ♥

Well the straightner is probably frying your hair, but that's to be expected, just use a serum on your hair before you straighten it. Like if you blow dry your hair then straighten it, I use Paul Mitchell's Kiwi Skinny Serum, it works GREAT and makes your hair really soft. I also use Pantene Pro-V Breakage control shampoo [The gold colored bottle :D]

I swim in chlorine all the time and my hair used to break, but ever since I started using the serum and shampoo, I'm always getting compliments on my hair and its shine :]

The serum is around 16-20 dollars, depending on the store, you can find it at Ulta. And the shampoo is just found at Wal-Mart or a grocery Store.

Hope I helped :]
