Why do they break my hair at the hairline location when they have a length of a little less than 4 cm? And why do not they break in other places? I recently did lighten my hair a shade March-April levels lighter than my natural color. I also straighten my hair about 4 months ago, using a hair relaxer without soda. And I cleared the last few inches of my hair myself, using hydrogen peroxide. If this is due to the color, I would not lose all my hair?

| Chemicals Process & Hair Breakage |
You should consider yourself fortunate not to have lost all of your hair. In reality, hair breakage at the location line is a fairly common problem, as the hair at that level are more likely to break when they are damaged. The hair behind the line of implantation have other hair that has a protective role, but the hair line of implantation does not have such hair to protect them. When the hair is under stress when using the comb or brush (after being damaged by chemical processes), they break more easily than others.
The most obvious problem in your case is the number of chemical processes that you used, one in particular that significantly reduces the structural integrity of hair - I mean the straightening technique. No lye relaxers even destroy the chemical bonds of the hair, which causes a loss of one third of elasticity thereof. Add to that the hardness of the hair thinning (which works by dispersing the molecules of melanin in the hair shaft) and you can easily realize what hair severely damaged by chemical processes.
In general, I would never recommend to my clients to color or lighten hair themselves if they have already undergone chemical processes. There are far too seriously risk damaging the hair. And an uninformed person who carries multiple chemical processes, can literally destroy her hair. It is in your best interest to check with a professional to deal with chemical services, especially when it comes to making a chemical process over another.
