First, they have to be cut off and that means you coming to terms with sacrificing some length for flattering. Then you need get used to some new hair habits.
Don't put wet hair into ponytail Wet hair is weak and hair strands can snap off wound up in a hair-tie. Let the hair dry completely before tying it up. If time is an issue, then wash your hair the night before.
Over-use of hair straighter It?s true what your mother has said to you about the overuse of hair straighter will makes your hair-ends look like a synthetic dolls? hair. Use it less and save your hair by blow-drying with a flat, paddle brush or a double-brush. Don?t forget to use a straightening product or a leave-in conditioner.
Conditioner is important
Damaged and dry ends benefit from a protein based leave-in conditioner or treatment spray because the conditioner smoothes and controls frizz and the protein synthetically replaces what has been stripped from the hair due to chemical applications like bleach, making it stronger and less likely to break off.
Regular cuts (maximum every 3 months) help stop split-ends from spreading up the hair shaft and from breaking off more hair strands. That?s why people say that regular haircuts make the hair grow faster.
