They help to keep your hairstyle shaped, smooth, and tidy, but there is a cost to heat styling. Regular heat styling can dry out the hair, disrupt its structure, and lead to split ends, dullness, and weakness in the long run.

The good news? With a few conscious steps and the right Maruderm hair care products, you can not only prevent heat damage but also restore your hair's natural shine and elasticity.

 

How does heat styling damage hair?

The structure of hair is made up of proteins, primarily keratin. When exposed to high heat, these proteins weaken and lose their elasticity. The hair cuticle (its outer protective layer) opens up, allowing moisture to escape more easily.

That’s why after frequent heat styling, hair feels:

• dry and brittle,

• loses its shine,

• and breaks much more easily.

Heat styling is therefore not the enemy, it is just unprotected.

 

What can you do to prevent heat damage?

 

1. Always use a heat protectant!

Heat protectant products create an invisible protective layer on the hair strands, preventing hot air or irons from stripping moisture away.

Recommended product:

Maruderm Two-Phase Heat Protectant and UV Protectant Hair Spray (Heat Protectant Spray) – its lightweight formula coats the hair strands, providing protection up to 220 °C. The combination of keratin and argan oil strengthens and adds shine to the hair.

Tip: Spray onto your hair from a distance of 15–20 cm before using a hair dryer or straightener.

 

2. Restore moisture and nutrients

The heat effect reduces the moisture content of the hair, so restorative hydration is essential.

Recommended product:

Maruderm Pre-Wash Hair Mask - Biotin & Keratin Intensive Regenerating Hair Mask  – deeply nourishes the hair, helps restore its softness and elasticity.

Main ingredients:

• Keratin: restores the hair structure.

• Biotin: strengthens hair follicles.

• Argan oil: deeply hydrates, gives a silky shine.

 Tip: Use 1–2 times a week. Leave on for 10–15 minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water. You can feel the difference after the first use!

3. Use a gentle shampoo and conditioner

Too strong, sulfate shampoos can further dry out the hair strands. Choose a product that cleans gently but does not strip away natural oils.

SLES-free Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Shampoo

Recommended products:

• Maruderm SLES-free Hyaluronic Moisturizing Shampoo – helps maintain the hair's natural moisture and reduces breakage.

• Maruderm Hair Regenerating Conditioner  – makes hair easy to comb while nourishing and adding shine.

 Tip: Always use conditioner after shampooing! This seals the hair cuticle and helps retain internal moisture.

 

4. Have "heat-free days"

You don't need to straighten or curl your hair every day. Give your strands a break. Let your natural texture shine through.

 Tip: Try the Maruderm Regenerating Hair Oil – it helps tame the ends and provides shape, even without heat.
