Protein Overload
Have you ever seen to much shedding when washing your hair?
Have you noticed your curl pattern isn’t defining?
Does it look dry, brittle & lack luster?
You may suffer from protein overload.
Most people don’t realize that’s what’s going on. You have to pay attention to product label ingredients & how your hair takes to protein. Your hair can be very sensitive to it so you must pay attention to your hair and what it’s trying to tell you.
I hope this helps!

Protein overload can significantly impact the health and appearance of your hair. It often occurs when we use too many protein-rich products in our hair care routine, leading to issues like frizziness, brittleness, and loss of elasticity. These symptoms can manifest as excessive shedding and noticeable split ends. To address protein overload, it's crucial to use a clarifying shampoo to eliminate excess protein buildup effectively. Avoiding products with high protein content and focusing on moisture-rich alternatives will help restore your hair's natural moisture balance. Additionally, it’s important to read the ingredients on your hair products carefully. Ingredients like keratin and collagen can be beneficial in moderation but can lead to issues if overused. Incorporating hydrating masks and leave-in conditioners that emphasize moisture rather than protein can aid in rejuvenating your hair. Maintaining a balanced hair care regimen by alternating protein treatments and hydrating products will keep your curls defined and vibrant. By listening to what your hair needs, you can prevent protein overload and maintain its health.
It sounds crazy but my great aunt told me use something called rogain to fix it and drink a gallon of water a day for a week. She also said to make sure you spray your hair with water because that’s moisturizer and everything else is just to lock it in and that oil don’t do nothing but lock water in that’s why these heffas be bald headed now. You know what she going on a rant at this point but yeah 😩🤣🤣
