Ask Mischo Beauty
We're excited to announce that we've relaunched our "Ask Mischo Beauty" series which many of you grew to love in the past!
Submit your questions via Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter by tagging #AskMischoBeauty, or here in the comments for me to answer. We will post the Q&A weekly!
To kick it off, this week's question comes from Katie via Twitter, who asks:
"My hair is damaged really bad from all the times I bleached and dyed it. What can I use on it?"
Well I'd first suggest stepping away from the bleach and haircolor. Your hair needs a serious break! A series of deep conditioning protein treatments, along with very special care and attention, should have your hair back to health in no time. In case you didn't know, hair is 91% protein (which is it's foundation) and so protein conditioning treatments will help to rebuild and strengthen the hair's structure.
When using a protein treatment, be sure to follow the manufacturer's directions - overuse could result in breakage. A few of my favorite protein treatments include:
- Wella Power Mask
- Aveda Damage Remedy
- MoroccanOil's Restorative Mask
- Joico K-PAK
- Kerastase Voile Nuit or Serum Nuit
Also, be sure to follow the protein treatments with a moisturizing conditioner - your hair will appreciate all the hydration it can get! When your hair is back to health, trade the protein treatments in for moisturizing treatments and establish a healthy haircare regimen.

Oh, and I'd suggest staying away from heat styling (flat irons, curling irons, blow dryers, etc.) for as long as you're able. I hope this helps. Please stop back by and let us know how it's going. Love your hair! #AskMischoBeauty
