I don't really know a lot about hair, but I'd say before even considering a hairstyle your friend should focus on getting her hair into a healthy condition. Most styling products and heat products such as flat iron will only make the situation worse by drying her hair out. So instead find a good shampoo and conditioner that moistures and restores the hair. However, she should not wash her hair too often as it removes natural oils and avoid blow drying as it might further damage her hair. At last use a hair mask either homemade or store bought.

Edit: And remember to drink a lot of water ^.^

I had really dry hair at one point (it wasnt too bad luckily but was so dry!) hairdresser told me to deep condition it weekly, and condition every time i wash it. I now use shampoo for heat damaged hair and have cut down how often i straighten it and this has really helped

Intensive moisturising masks? You can even make your own really cheap, just google. Or pile loads of conditioner on and leave it for an hour.

As for styles, maybe keep it in a plait or bun?

I agree.

If I were her, I would first put olive or coconut oil on my hair for a couple of hours before shower then shampoo my hair, apply a mix of conditioner and hair cream bath and wrap it in a hot towel for 30 minutes then after shower apply hair food cream. The hair food smooths the hair and controls the frizz. I use Palmer's



As for the hairstyle, I'd go with a bun and maybe try to make it a little creative. Like this

Yeah there are tons of really beautiful looking buns and if you guys will be going to a hairstylist before prom he should be able to make any or you could find tutorials on Youtube if you're not going to one

Your friend ought to stop using heated products on her hair for a god few weeks, let it air dry, deep condition it and have her split ends cut off. She should also invest in a really good heat protection spray or cream for her hair.

Same thing happened to me a few years back, used every product known to man, nothing worked, there was nothing left for me to do but shave it all off.  Gotta say, it did the trick.  My hair's very soft and shiny now.
