Rachel Valentine, known online as @rachelvalentinehair, often shares her hair hacks with her 26,000 followers. 

In her latest video, the freelance hairdresser and content creator can be seen sharing the most damaging style to wear your hair in – a messy bun. 

“This is the most damaging way you can wear your hair – so be conscious of this next time you go to throw it in a messy bun!

“I’m a hairdresser and I’m going to show you probably the most damaging way that you can wear your hair and some of us are probably guilty of doing it every single day. 

“And it is this. I know that shoving your hair up in a messy bun is sometimes the quickest thing to do to get your hair out of your face, but it is so damaging in so many ways.

“Firstly, it is super tight, so the tension is going to be on these areas here, so if you get traction alopecia like me, then this is a no-go. 

“Secondly, our poor ends, especially if your hair is bleached, are going to be so prone to breaking in a style like this. 

“They’re all caught up, they’re all intertwined, and when you take it out it’s probably going to be super knotty. 

“Thirdly, a lot of people do this when their hair is wet, which is even worse. 

“Our hair is so fragile when it’s wet, and especially in a style like this, it’s going to cause so much damage.”

Fans rushed to thank the hairdresser and content creator for her words of wisdom, with one writing: “Me every day for a billion years and wondering why my hair is thinning and damaged.”

Another said: “My toxic trait is doing this every day but with silk scrunchies and thinking that makes it okay.” 

One also wrote: “Me watching with my hair just like that…and it’s wet.”
