🔥 Avoid excessive heat and tight hairstyles: your hair is not invincible

We all try to tame our hair... but sometimes we mistreat it without meaning to.

❌ Heat: an invisible enemy

Straighteners, hair dryers, curling irons... Used too often (or without protection), they weaken the hair fiber , making it drier, brittle, and dull.

  • The hair scales open

  • Hydration evaporates

  • The ends split

👉 Result: hair that no longer grows, which breaks before even reaching the desired length.


❌ Hairstyles that are too tight: pulling = breakage

Ultra-tight braids, pulled-back ponytails, and buns secured with elastics: these hairstyles create constant traction on the roots. Over time, this can lead to:

  • Breaks in the temples

  • Localized hair loss

  • An irritated or painful scalp


✅ The good news? You can protect your hair

  1. Limit heat : opt for air drying, use a heat protector, space out straightening sessions.

  2. Favor loose hairstyles : loose buns, light braids, ties with soft elastics (or silk scrunchies).

  3. Wear a Hellosilk silk cap at night : to reduce breakage, limit friction and maintain hair's natural moisture.


Your hair needs care, not tension.
Adopt gentle gestures, and let Hellosilk protect them while you sleep.
