Hair cuticles can be opened by using heat or chemical treatments such as hair dye or relaxers. Once the cuticles are open, this allows for products to penetrate the hair shaft and can help with moisture retention and repair. It's important to follow up with a conditioning treatment to help seal the cuticles back to keep the hair healthy.
The healthier you are, the healthier your cuticles will be. Eat a nutritious diet with foods high in protein, such as meats, nuts, and cheeses; whole grains; and fresh fruits and vegetables to help cuticles to grow strong and quick.
