Heat damage to hair is typically caused by blow dryers, curling and flat irons, UV rays from the sun and chemicals in relaxers and perms. We already know the effects of heat on hair but we still tend to use these nasty treatments in order to look good and regret later over heat damaged hair! not to worry anymore, here I am with the top remedies for heat damaged hair:<\/p>\n
