The role of styling in thin hair
The kind of haircut for thin hair should match your hair type and we should talk about how you usually style your hair.
Hairstyling is essential to make your haircut look great, but also to make your hair look thicker and more voluminous.
If you're into styling and enjoy creating beautiful hairstyles, you can keep your hair longer to have more options
If you're not really into styling and don't have much time for it, shorter hairstyles like a pixie cut can be a great solution. It helps you rock your signature style without needing to spend a lot of time on hair styling
It’s about time to think about the health of your hair.
Do you feel like your hair is dry and dehydrated, breaking, frizzing, lacking shine and elasticity, looking limp and dull?
Are your hair burned or damaged from bleaching?
This is the sign to restore the health of your hair, with tips to start fresh, from the hair experts at B.A.M. Hair Salon!
This may seem like a serious challenge to you
and you keep putting it off because you're getting to the point where you don't know how to manage your hair in everyday life.
And so, you find yourself falling into the vicious cycle again, using heat for styling every day, constantly undergoing chemical treatments like bleaching, thinking only how you want your hair to look like – which might be incredibly challenging to achieve and maintain without damage.
The vicious cycle of burnt - damaged hair
You resort to very budget-friendly products that promise amazing hair, but in the end, they make your quality worse.
Since they are budget-friendly, you'll try a few more, cluttering your shelves and filling yourself with stress and an empty wallet.
And the cycle starts all over again.
How to get started?
1.Cut your hair
If you're wondering why your hair isn't growing, that’s the answer.
When you notice your roots growing, but your hair remains the same length, it's because the ends are breaking.
That's why hair experts recommend getting a haircut every 2 months, even if it's just a small trim.
This way, you prevent dryness and split ends that would otherwise start moving up from the tips towards the length of your hair.
Follow the current downstream:
You'll need to cut a significant amount of your hair to get rid of the damage.
Because they might seem short to you, you'll likely postpone the haircut you should have done two months ago.
Your hair will start becoming dehydrated and developing split ends again, but since your goal is to grow your hair longer, you postpone the haircut.
Your hair ends up like before. You must do something about it!
You'll cut a significant amount of your hair to get rid of the damage.
Now, they seem too short to you,so you postpone the haircut again that you should have done two months ago.
Your hair ends up like before.
And you've gotten yourself into another vicious cycle you can't escape.
And you wonder why your hair isn't growing longer.
Isn’t it the time to face your fear?

We've talked many times about the damage caused by heat tools on hair when used daily, especially if you haven't properly prepped your hair.
Whether your hair looks dull, or it's breaking, or even if it's frizzy, the first thing you can do to bring back their health is to take a break from heat styling.
Let's clarify here that we don't mean drying your hair with a hairdryer, but rather styling your hair with any kind of heat tool.
And of course, you might be wondering: "How can I style my hair to keep it looking polished without using heat?"
The answer is Protective Hairstyles.
What are "protective hairstyles"?

So, "protective hairstyles" are like the go-to cool hairstyles that don't mess up your hair, and it's a smart move to rock them even in winter to give your locks a breather from all that heat styling.
Who are they suitable for?

Should I do Balayage or Highlights?
The great debate between the two most popular hair techniques has divided you?
The hair experts at bamhairsalon are here to explain the differences and the criteria to choose the appropriate technique for your hair, style, and budget.
Differences between Balayage and Highlights:
In Balayage, we have a gentle transition from the root color towards the hair ends, keeping the root coOn the other hand, with highlights, we take many fine sections from the root to the hair ends with almost no darker intermediate sections.lor and some intermediate hair sections in a darker shade.
In both cases, the use of aluminum foil on the hair (mainly with highlights) helps us to lift the hair color to a high level to achieve the desired blonde shade.
In Balayage, the use of aluminum foil is not always necessary if we don't want to achieve a very light blonde lift.
Baby lights
Baby lights are very fine and soft highlights that fade towards the root, with the purpose of looking absolutely natural. That is why they blend beautifully with the Balayage technique, which results in naturally lifted ends.
Very often, you will see this combination of techniques referred to as Baby Balayage.
With what criteria should I choose?
1. How blonde do you want to become or remain
2. Based on the maintenance required
If you desire a luxurious overall blonde color as a result, we recommend highlights.
If you want a low-maintenance technique, we recommend Balayage or Baby Balayage (the combination of baby lights and Balayage techniques). If done correctly and uniformly from the beginning, it can still look great even as your hair grows out.
This is not the case with highlights, as their maintenance should be done every 6 weeks or so.

"Your hair breaks because they are telling you something"
Why does my hair break so easily?
Re-evaluating some aspects of your daily and hair routine is the first step in determining why your hair may be breaking.
Do you properly manage your wet hair, or do you always style them with thin bands?
These could be two common reasons that lead to such damage, but let’s find out more.
Dry hair
It is simple to understand that dry hair frequently causes hair breakage. It is commonly found in hair that is prone to dryness, such as type 4 very curly hair.
The hair is very fragile because it lacks elasticity and moisture, and even simple brushing can break it.
Washing your hair and scalp with gentle products will keep moisture in and give your hair shine.
Heat styling
Always effective and very impressive in terms of results, but styling with a straightening iron or curling iron is another very common cause of hair breakage.
Thermal tools can cause serious damage to hair when used without proper precautions.
Apply heat protective styling products or a heat protective hairspray. These products build a protective barrier between the tools and the hair.
At the same time, invest in high quality thermal tools and control their use by trying no-heat curls hairstyling.
Frequent shampooing
We know how much you love the feeling of freshly washed hair, especially if you have an oily hair.
Frequent washes will refresh your scalp, but the shampoo's cleansing agents will also dehydrate the ends and lengths of your hair.
If you have intense oiliness, choose a scalp balancing shampoo or a very gentle shampoo for frequent use to find the balance between oily scalp and dry ends.
You postpone your haircut
By trimming the split ends, breakage at the ends can be avoided. Therefore, schedule your haircut appointments and our hair experts will tell you everything you need to know about the frequency of your haircuts.
How can I avoid hair breakage?
Choose to protect it.
As far as styling, try protective hairstyles with braids or sloppy knots to give your hair a break from wind exposure, pulling, and heat styling.
Pay close attention to the hair bands. Replace them with silk scrunchies or claw clips
Another secret to reduce breakage is to be cautious when handling wet hair. Hair is at its most fragile state when wet. So, extra attention! Another secret to reduce breakage is to be cautious when handling wet hair. Hair is at its most fragile state when wet. So, extra attention!
After shampooing, use a microfiber hair towel or a cotton t-shirt to absorb excess moisture.
Never untangle hair when wet and use a high-quality hairbrush or a comb with thick, sparse tines.
Treatments to do at home
When we refer to home hair treatment, we mean a professional hair treatment that you can do once a week at home by yourself.
If you are not sure what you need and what is good for your hair, a visit to the salon for diagnosis - counselling and suggestion is the best way to start.
Our hair experts can help you avoid wasting time and money on products that don't work for you by recommending the best ones for your hair type.
Salon treatment
Salon treatments are more specialised and last longer than treatment you do at home.
As a result, we encourage you to include salon treatments in your quest for vibrant and healthy hair!
