Is Your Hair Experiencing Protein Overload

Protein is an absolute essential in order to maintain healthy hair. However, too much protein can cause some serious damage to your locs. Most curl queens encounter a protein overload at some point in their lives. Protein overload happens when you add too much protein in your hair. These signs given below will help you detect protein overload effectively.

1. Dryness And Brittle Hair

If your hair is experiencing a protein overload, your strands will become unusually dry and brittle. Protein generally strengthens your tresses but also makes it inelastic, so if your ‘fro is burdened with too much protein, it tends to snap and break easily. This loss of elasticity will lead to damage and breakage.

2. Dull And Dirty Looking Hair

Applying TCB Naturals Hair Food, Nourishing Hair Food will give you a great dose of protein, however too much protein will leave your locs looking dull and lifeless. Textured hair is known for its sheen and lustre. If you are facing a protein overload, you will notice that your tresses have lost its shine and become completely dull. It also makes your hair look dirty and greasy all day long.

3. Strands Feel Like A Straw

Healthy afro hair usually has a good stretching capacity; if you bombard it with too much protein then your strands will stop stretching at all before breaking. This will leave your ‘fro looking like a bunch of straws and that is every girl’s nightmare!
