    gradual degradation of hair fibers from environmental exposure

    Weathering, in the context of hair, refers to the gradual degradation and weakening of hair fibers due to exposure to environmental factors such as UV radiation, pollution, and physical wear from grooming practices. This process can lead to split ends, increased porosity, and overall loss of hair strength and elasticity.
