I completely changed my hair

#lemon8diarychallenge

When I was 13 I cut my hair really short, so I had been growing it out for 7 years! No matter what I tried my hair always looked unhealthy, probably from bleaching the ends several times. I am also in Japan for the summer and for those you don’t know it’s about to get reallly humid and miserable 🥵 so I decided it was time for a change.

My hair is really thick, and the stylist was able to thin it out a lot, so it feels completely different and sooo much healthier! It’s so soft and a lot less frizzy than before. I’ll have to get used to the new look but I’m loving it so far 😄🌸

2024/6/23 Edited to

... Read moreIf you’ve ever struggled with frizzy or over-processed hair, you’re not alone. Many people face hair damage due to various factors, including heat styling and chemical treatments like bleaching. While growing out my hair, I found that caring for thick strands requires the right products and techniques. To achieve healthier hair, consider regular trims to eliminate split ends, and explore hydrating masks that can rejuvenate the strands. It's also beneficial to reduce heat exposure and use natural oils for moisture. In humid climates like Japan's summer, anti-frizz serums and lightweight leave-in conditioners can make a big difference. Finding the right stylist who understands how to work with your hair type is crucial. They can suggest proper thinning techniques that suit your hair's thickness while providing a fresh look that reduces weight and promotes healthy growth. The feeling of soft, manageable hair is worth the journey, and embracing change can lead to newfound confidence!
