Is hair straighting (or ironing, something like that) dangerous and harmful for teenage guys? How ba

I'm a 16 year old boy, and it's been like a month since I was straightening my hair with a hair straightener almost every three days - That's making it straight. So, is it dangerous for guys like us and does it really cause hair loss and damage. And finally, if it does any harm, are there any ways to protect the hair or something as tips and advices, thanks.

Dark Red....,

Straightening your hair is no more harmful than straightening a girl's hair....after all, you are human...right?

Seriously, the only harm that can be done is breakage due to accessive use of the flat iron, or if the temperature is set too high on the appliance, both of which can cause dry and brittle hair, leading to hair loss. (Not sexy to be a 16 year old bald guy.)

What I will suggest is when you do use them, make sure they are just hot enough, but not too hot. Also, use a protective moisturizer for those ends, especially if you have color-treated hair. Also, if you are going to straighten your hair everyday, shampoo and condition it atleast every 2 days (don't have time for a deep conditioner? do a leave-in one), and get regular trims by a barber every 2 to 3 weeks.

I know because you're a guy, these things can sound like a pain, but, it's worth protecting your hair.

Good Luck!

As long as you are not "tugging" on your hair, it is fine. Straighten away!

any heat is damaging,i would use a good conditioner in the shower,use a heat protectant spray on the hair,and use some product after such as paul mitchell gloss drops. or on wet hair paul mitchell super skinny.

just want to keep it nourished.

as far as it being worse on a guy than a girl,i would say no,but i am no expert.

the heat can be bad for your hair if you straighten it most days of the week...and you'll know when you start getting split ends. for the most part, as a guy, you are probably cutting your hair fairly often so it really shouldnt be too big a deal

as far as hair loss, like someone else said, unless you are ripping your hair out, there is absolutely no risk of early balding

It's no better or worse for teenage boys than for anyone else.

Hair straighteners don't cause hair loss. They do, however, use heat to straighten the hair, and this can make it dry and frizzy. You can get a lot of good protective styling sprays to protect the hair while you straighten it; most of these will also help keep your style for longer, too.

Look in your local pharmacy for anything called "blow drying spray" or "protective spray for heat styling", etc. Not "hairspray" - that's a different product!

not dangerous at all. it could damage your hair though if the heat is on too high for your hair type. do you know your hiar type? is it fair, medium, or thick? if fair, low heat, medium, well, medim heat, and thick... well you get the picture. if you really wanna protect your hair, you can get some type of pomade or straightening gel to put on before you straighten your hair

Its going to cause damage no matter if your a girl or a guy. You may want to apply a thermal protector or straightening balm to minimize damage. You can find these products at any store or salon.
