QuestionMy hair has always been my pride and joy. I figured since it is pretty healthy, it could deal with some bleach damage. My hair has never been shorter than this and it breaks and falls out. What should I do?Community AnswerYou could try an essential oil massage or a green tea rinse. The essential oil massage needs hair support essential oil blend ($23.00). Put 15-20 drops onto a towel (strictly for your hair) along with a conditioner for hair repair. Massage into your head and the ends of your hair. Do this 2 times a week (taking a bath) until moisture is restored and until hair fallout stops.

QuestionI got a hairdresser with 30 years of experience to bleach my 15yr old daughter's hair, and I'm so upset for her. Most of her beautiful hair came out in clumps and her hair thickness is gone. What can l do?Hannah MaddenCommunity AnswerStart by using a deep conditioner to add moisture back into your daughter's hair. Use oil treatments and hair masks once a week to hydrate and rejuvenate her locks. As your daughter's hair grows, take her to get trims regularly to cut off the damaged ends as they grow out. It may take some time, but your daughter's hair can get back to normal.
