#2 Too Much Heat
Straight hair and perfect curls are of course very beautiful to look at, and extremely popular nowadays, however, it is one thing if you do it for special occasions, and completely another if this is done every day. Even if you use heat protection your hair will not be able to endure all this heat, which will come from your everyday use of ironer or curler. Try treating you hair with a bit more respect if you do not want it to become all thin and boring.
#3 Colouring
Try waiting until your hair will be gray, and you would really want to colour it. Of course a little bit of experimenting is not that bad at all, but some people simply overdo it.

#6 Lack of Conditioner
Simply washing your hair is often not enough, because to really achieve that super shiny and soft hair you will need something more. Try to find a conditioner that fits you, look for the ones made by organic products, and the ones that are not full of silicones, which can make your hair, look greasy and heavy.

So instead of picking brush up all the time, try styling your hair just with fingers now and then, be gentle and your hair will be grateful.
