English term or phrase: overworked hair

Hair that has been extensively "abused", i.e. permed, coloured, dried, etc.

Ramona

rambut rosak

Explanation:
I think 'rambut yang rosak' is usually used to describe the kind of hair conditions you mentioned. Put in another way, over-perming, over-coloring, over-drying, can all damage your hair.
