Does my hair need protein?

How do I know if my hair needs protein? Do protein hair treatments work? Thanks!

Everyone wants to have strong and healthy hair, and one way to ensure that your hair is in a good condition is to regularly use protein treatments on your hair. Protein treatment for hair is a salon or at-home treatment that helps to boost the health of your hair with several nutrients got from proteins. Each nutrient plays a specific role in making your hair healthy.

Over a long period of time, the hair loses strength, elasticity, and begins to break. The only way to restore your hair is to treat it with proteins.
