It depends how damaged it is.
Usually, you just need to add some extra moisture with your Olaplex treatment so I’d mix in some Olaplex (No:1, 2 or 3) to a deep conditioning product and apply as a mask to damp hair and leave for at least 30 minutes.
However, if the cuticle layer is very damaged, (hair looks like candy floss and breaks easily), then its best to cut it off.

What shampoo and conditioner are you using on it at the moment?

The Maria Nila stuff is quite nice, and the cantu is a fairly decent product too.
You need to be careful that you're not adding too much protein and not enough moisture as sometimes that can make the hair feel dry and hard/brittle.
Do you use a leave in product? Take a look at the revlon unique all in 1 leave in spray, or joico recovery leave in moisturizer.
If you're not keen on leave in products then your other option would be to introduce something like Philip Kingsley Elastisizer into your hair regime, do it no more than once a week.
This product is fantastic for restoring moisture and elasticity to the hair. When the hair feels better reduce to once every 3 weeks.
