Nickelodeon star Ariana Grande recently took to her Facebook page to fight back against attacks on her hair, stating constant bleaching and colorings "destroyed her hair." It is so bad that the young star now wears extensions to hide the damage. 

Many women don't understand that chemicals like bleaches and dyes fundamentally change the structure of your hair, making it weaker and more susceptible to breakage and damage. Overusing these treatments can lead to severe breakage, hair fallout, loss of density and volume and, if bad enough, even traction alopecia. While this sort of damage can ususlly be reversed if these habits are corrected, it can still be a long process for healthy hair to grow back. 

Ariana should also use extensions with caution, as they too can cause damage to hair, especially if it is already in a weakened state. 

If the young star wants to speed up the recovery process, vitamin supplememts like celebrity favorite Viviscal and professional strength Biotin, along with low level laser therapy are known ways to stimulate healthy hair growth. A healthy diet filled with "healthy hair foods" is also an easy way to boost the health, and appearance, of your hair.
