If your hair is constantly breaking, consider the following steps:

1. Moisturize: Use a hydrating shampoo and conditioner. Look for products with ingredients like glycerin or aloe vera.

2. Limit Heat Styling: Reduce the use of heat tools like straighteners and curling irons. If you use them, apply a heat protectant.

3. Trim Regularly: Regular trims help remove split ends and prevent further breakage.

4. Gentle Handling: Avoid rough brushing and use a wide-tooth comb. Be gentle when towel-drying your hair.

5. Balanced Diet: Ensure you’re eating a diet rich in vitamins and minerals, especially biotin, zinc, and protein.

6. Avoid Tight Hairstyles: Hairstyles that pull on the hair can cause breakage. Opt for looser styles.

7. Hydration: Drink plenty of water to keep your hair hydrated from the inside out.

8. Reduce Chemical Treatments: Minimize coloring, perming, or relaxing your hair, as these can weaken it.

If breakage persists, consider consulting a dermatologist or a trichologist for personalized advice.
