In the beauty world split hair or split ends is officially known as trichoptilosis. There are wide range of reasons why split ends occur.





1 Excessive use of hot styling tools (irons, hot curlers, blow dryers, hot combs).


2 Overuse of chemical treatments (relaxers, perms, hair color).


3 Use of inferior styling tools that rip or snag hair (cheap synthetic brushes or combs, brush rollers, etc.,).


4 Environmental damage from heat, cold, wind and other climate issues.


5 Lack of routine maintenance such as regular trimming.


Improper detangling techniques.


6 Overwashing.


7 Use of inferior hair care products.


8 Excessive use of styling products such as gels, waxes and sprays.


9 Trimming with inferior scissors








To reduce tangles and get rid of split ends, brush your hair before you take a shower. While you’re in the shower, try not to bunch up your hair while you’re washing it. Make sure your hair hangs straight down, apply shampoo near the top of your scalp, and work the lather downward by gently working your fingers in a zigzag motion down the length of your hair. This will prevent tangles that encourage breakage when you brush after your shower.





To get rid of split ends, use plenty of conditioner during and after a shower. Some conditioners are good for your hair, and others aren’t. Generally speaking, those conditioners that are more expensive or found in reputable hair salons are the better conditioners. Conditioner will not only help keep your hair feeling luxuriously smooth, but it will also help prevent breakage and the resulting split ends by lubricating your hair. The problem here is that conditioners that make your hair easy to brush tend to leave more residues.


As a rule, hair specialists tell you not to brush your hair while it’s wet if you want to get rid of split ends. This is where the last two steps come into play. Let’s be honest with ourselves, and admit that we need to brush our hair while it’s wet because we don’t have a lot of time in the morning. If you did the first two steps above properly, and you didn’t bunch your hair up with your towel, you should be able to brush your hair quite easily when it’s still wet.





Don’t use hair dryers, curling irons, or hair straightening devices if you’re serious about getting rid of split ends. Anything that uses heat to treat your hair, barring “thermal hair treatments,” is bad for your hair. Instead of frying your hair on a daily basis, why not do what I do and take a little more time in the morning to allow your hair to dry without a hair dryer. Make sure to brush your hair in such a way as to spread it across yourself, exposing more surface area and thus reducing the time it takes to dry.


If you have split ends already and you want to get rid of those split ends, make sure to cut at least 1 and ½ inch up the hair to prevent further splitting. Split ends do have a tendency to keep splitting if you give them the chance. If you have time during the day, or in the evening, check your hair occasionally for split ends and simply cut about one to one and a half inches above the split end, and apply a conditioning treatment (pomade?) to the recently split end to ensure not more splitting.





Doing these things should work for u.


And try not to sry too much heat protectant spray on your hair. That can also cause damage which leads to split ends.
Don't brush through your hair while it's wet unless you use a leave-in conditioner....Infusion spray is THE BEST.





When brushing, start at the root first then gradually making your way to the ends.





If you wear your hair in an elastic, make sure it is a soft elastic and change the location of it on your head (sometimes wear it high, other days wear it low) to stop hair weakening in one spot.
Deep condition it twice a month and lessen the use of the curling irons or flat irons. Also try Nexxus products. They don't make the hair greasy but they give it enough moisture so that your ends don't split. They can be a little expensive though.
try to not brush or comb your hair when its wet and be gentle. THE ONLY WAY TO COMPLETELY GET RID OF SPLIT ENDS IS TO CUT THEM OFF
Just buy the right product. Like there is shampoo[ and conditioners that will help with that.
Occasionally snip your ends.


that will help
when you wash your hair, use a conditionner as well .. this helps .. also when you sleep, tie your hair
