Regular trims are essential to keep split ends at bay. Cutting off damaged ends every 6-8 weeks helps maintain healthy hair and prevents further breakage from spreading up the strands.
Frequent use of heat tools like straighteners and curling irons can lead to split ends. Minimize heat styling, and always use a heat protectant when styling to safeguard your hair from damage.
Harsh shampoos can strip your hair of essential oils, leading to dryness and split ends. Opt for a sulfate-free shampoo that hydrates and nourishes your hair without causing further damage.
Conditioning your hair helps keep it moisturized and less prone to split ends. Make sure to use a deep conditioner at least once a week to restore moisture and keep your hair smooth.
Brushing your hair too much can cause friction and lead to split ends. Use a wide-toothed comb or a brush with soft bristles, and avoid excessive brushing, especially when your hair is wet.
Sleeping on a cotton pillowcase can cause friction, leading to split ends. Switch to a silk or satin pillowcase, or tie your hair in a loose braid to reduce breakage and preserve hair health.
Protein Treatment: Protein-packed treatments help strengthen hair, reducing breakage and split ends by reinforcing the hair shaft.
