The first thing, according to Rachel, is carrying a bag on your shoulder.

She added: “Number one - shoulder bags, rucksacks, anything that is sitting on your shoulder, especially if you’re in the habit of wearing it on the same shoulder all the time.”

Secondly, Rachel noted that sleeping on the same side will cause damage to your locks.

She continued: “The second one - your pillow and the way you sleep, especially if you sleep on one side consistently.

“If you notice that your hair is finer on one side, it may be because of this reason.”

Finally, this hair expert stressed the damage that necklaces can do to your locks.

She concluded: “The third thing - necklaces.

“If you’re taking off your necklace and your hair is getting caught underneath, it may cause breakage.

"Especially because your hairline is much weaker than the rest of our hair.”
