This type of breakage is mainly caused by "traction".
Traction breakage occurs when the hair strands
are pulled or rubbed against one another. This
type of tension can occur when you wear tight ponytails, hair pieces, weaves, braids,
rubber bands, etc. When we continuously pull
the hair, we rip it out of the hair follicle,
which inflames and eventually, scars the scalp.
Once this happens, that follicle may not grow
hair again. Discontinue the poor haircare practices
and begin a treatment/ nourishment program.
