Conditioners, time: Burnt and damaged hair does not really recover and heal, as it is not alive. You can ask your hair stylist for a quality conditioning treatment to make it look and feel softer, but time, hair growth and trimming off the burnt areas are the only real solution. Be careful with those hot irons and straighteners!
