“Fluff” on the head: how to determine if it is new or “broken” hair

Girls who dream of growing a luxurious mane and doing everything possible for this always look forward to the appearance of small fluffy hair on their heads. For what? They gladly accept them as new ones, which will eventually grow back and add the coveted volume and length to the hairstyle.

Only tiny “antennae” on the head is not always a good sign. Very often, these are broken hairs, which are simply confused with a new “undercoat”. To find out the true nature of the appearance of such a “gun” will help a simple test that you can do right at home.

Due to the fact that outwardly such hair looks alike, you will need to take a closer look at it. For these purposes, you will need the most ordinary magnifying glass: point it at the tip of the hair and study it carefully. If you see a smooth, sharp tip, like a spruce needle, you have a long-awaited “newcomer”. If the tip has the same thickness as the entire hair, has a thickening or looks cut off – alas, this is a “breakage”.

If everything went according to the second scenario, this is a signal to reconsider your usual care. First of all, hair breaks due to lack of moisture and loss of protein and fat mass. In this situation, the length you will never increase.

Therefore, urgently add strengthening products to the care, and also exclude all traumatic factors. Sometimes the problem is on the surface: hair can come loose even due to rubbing against clothing or improper combing.
