Another vital requirement is to keep the hair away from heat and chemicals as much as possible. The hot tools should be strictly avoided as they play a major role in damaging the hair. However, if there is a need to use a curling iron or a flat iron, it is always preferable to use it on a recently conditioned hair in order to minimize all the damaging effects. Chemical relaxers and harsh dyes are also to be avoided as they turn the hair frizzy and uncontrollable.
