My new long hair is always brittle, dull and hard to comb, why?

[Anonymous]

I've grown my hair out but my hair is constantly brittle looking and hard to comb. It looks dull and also flies everywhere in the wind.

Usually I take only hot showers and use a bit of shampoo and conditioner in one. Something is strange though. I don't know if it's the conditioner or my hair but the product doesn't really foam anymore. It's a big bottle.

The condition of my hair is beginning to worry me.

I've also in the past two years have gone through tremendous stress more than I believe I'll ever go through for the rest of my life - maybe this is affecting the condition of my hair?

you need more protein and make sure you are using cold water when your washing and conditioning it.. the cold water helps it lock in moisture and look healthier.. also use the cool aid option on the blow dryer if your using that as heat can dry out your hair and leave it looking like shit.

Do you put moisturizer in your hair? That'll stop it from being dull, frizzy, and it'll help with strength and combing.
