The easiest way to prevent heat damage to your hair is to turn down the temperature on your flat iron.

You get split ends over time due to damaged hair. Even healthy hair will get split ends.

It's important to use a heat protectant every time you straighten your hair because it will limit the damage. However, straightening everyday isn't a good idea and will usually leave you with drier, more brittle hair.

Washing and conditioning daily is not a good idea. Every other day is best. Make sure you always use a heat protectant spray to stop the hair from snapping and getting damaged from the heat.
