Healthy and shiny hair makes you look good. However, most of us are suffering from split ends as we always dye the hair or use the heating styling tools. How can we prevent and get rid of split ends effectively? Here are some daily haircare tips for you.
(1) Trim your hair regularly
If you find split ends, it means that your hair is dry, tangled or damaged. The best solution is trimming your hair regularly regardless of the length. Going to the salon for a haircut every 6 to 8 weeks. Also, you can use a pair of sharp scissors to get rid of split ends by yourself. Uncut split ends will cause more and more splits!
(2) Blow dry your hair at a lower heat
If you blow dry your hair at high heat, your hair loses the moisture. It becomes dry, rough and brittle. This will lead to damaged hair and split ends. The ideal way is to let your hair air-dry or blow dry your hair at the lowest heat. As the high heat will damage your hair, you should limit or avoid using heating styling tools.
(3) Use hair conditioner
After shampooing, you can use a hair conditioner. Hair conditioner contains repairing ingredients to hydrate and detangle your hair. It is a home treatment to heal split ends temporarily. Just apply some conditioner along the length of hair and leave it for several minutes. Then, rinse it off thoroughly.
(4) Use hair oil
Hair oils are good for nourishing your hair and preventing split ends. You can choose the hair oils containing ingredients like coconut, argan or jojoba. Apply a small amount of hair oil and rub it between your palms. Then, apply it on your dry hair and split ends. Hair oil can hydrate your hair, smooth the brittles and make your hair look shiny. Don’t apply too much hair oil. Your hair will look greasy.
