Hair, breakage, loss and thinning.

The distinct difference between Hair loss and Hair breakage:

1. Hair Breakage is when the hair fractures on the ends or at any point throughout the length of the hair strand. Split Ends is among the most common cause of hair breakage and will result when the tip of the hair shaft is broken at the cortex. When the cortex is exposed, it becomes dry and the end begins to fray or split, leaving the hair with a dull, ragged appearance, usually self-inflicted which is the result of improper hair care.

2. Hair Loss is when the hair comes out completely from the root of the follicle. Most cases of hair loss are hormonal, nutritional or emotionally related. Conditioning, treatment and cutting of portions of damaged hair are among the most beneficial alternatives to restoring damaged hair.
