Recovering From Hair Adhesive Remover Damage

By Brenda Russell


There are many external factors that can traumatize your hair and scalp and cause hair breakage and hair loss. One of them includes the use of hair adhesive remover among other chemicals. Most women at one point in their lives find themselves using hair adhesives and removers when adding hair extensions.

When the hair and scalp are damaged from these chemicals, it is important that special treatment is done to stabilize the problems. Part of the special treatment requires that you change how you treat your scalp and hair. This can be done for a duration of time sometimes months, to give the hair and scalp time to recover.

In the course of the treatment, one must ensure that the hair and scalps receive constant care for the problem to disappear. One must avoid the use of any adhesives or other external factors on the hair and scalp to stabilize them. Once the problem is solved they can be reintroduced slowly with care. The stable environment must be maintained for the hair and scalp to recover successfully.

The recovery process is however based on the extent of the damage to your hair and scalp. But basically, it can range from four weeks to several months. What you should remember during this time is that you must offer your hair the same treatment throughout this period. Think of your hair as a patient in a hospital who is in a critical state. The patient needs constant care with the treatments and medicines being delivered consistently for the patient to recover quickly.

When dealing with chronic hair loss and breakage, the stabilization program can last up to twelve weeks before moving to the maintenance part of the treatment. During this period the main focus is to stop the hair from further loss and breakage. The stabilizing program can include shampooing your hair regularly while maintaining a balanced pH on the hair and scalp. Deep conditioning using a protein moisturizing and stabilizing conditioner will help naturally repair, rejuvenate and rebuild the hair.

Always apply the deep conditioner to your hair and scalp and focus on the weak areas. Avoid combing the conditioner to your hair and instead, use your hands by rubbing it in from the top of your head. Remember to always handle your hair gently. Never handle it roughly.

Once you are done applying the conditioner, sit in a dryer for a few minutes for the conditioner to work. Rinse if off afterward using warm water. Dry your hair with a towel by blotting the hair and squeezing the strands.

You should then apply hair vitamins that aid in stabilizing the breakage. They fill in the torn and thin areas of the hair shaft thereby increasing the elasticity of your hair. Focus on the weak areas when applying the vitamins.

As you go through the special treatment, you should stay away from all heating tools. This includes blow dry, flat iron, curls, and presses. You should use a roller setting instead and before setting on the rollers, apply the sculpting lotion on your scalp.
