Answer 1

after years of the same problem, i finally learned you have to trim every six weeks or so and i deep condition once a week...let it air dry as often as possible and don't use a lot of hot irons on it..i use steam rollers for curls, and condition with a good conditioner each time i wash it..also, i only wash it twice a week, instead of daily like i did for years,,it was drying the ends so bad, that's why they broke off...it takes lots of different thing, but it all works in the end...

Answer 2

The new Head and Shoulders Range is good for dandruff they have seperate conditioners and shampoo, for diffrent types of hair.

Don't use the dryer to dry your hair and if you do use a leave in conditioner on your hair, using hair products can make your hair frail as well, as causing a buildup.

If you are going to use straightners or curlers use a leave in conditioner once again and make sure you have trims at least once every 6 weeks, deep condition 1 time a week.

Getting layers in your hair is a good idea as it is easier to keep it under control and less split ends.

I know you asked for a woman's opinion, but I'm sharing mine anyway. I have long hair, and women love it. It's about a quarter of the way down my back, all one length. At least one woman per week (strangers) tells me I have nice hair. I think the trick is to keep it nice. Keep it neat and clean. If you are getting a good response from the ladies, keep it going! I have found that just because a woman says one thing, does not mean she really means it!! ;) Also, what really matters is how YOU feel about it. It's your hair!

Answer 4

It's all simply a matter of personal preference. I have short hair and guys like it. And i prefer a man with short hair over a guy with long hair because long tresses tends to make guys look also girly.

Answer 5

i have the same problem my hair is long and i found that using Selsun blue helps but it stinks don't use conditioner if your using and anit dandruff case it washes it away. or just use pantine to keep the volume in your hair. thats what i do but i'm in need of a trim. i only change shampoo if i have to. maybe you could ask your local hair dresser. that might help.

i have long hair and honestly it is in perfect condition i get it trimmed every 4 months or so ... my secret is to use almond and coconut oil once a week and keep it in overnight ... massage it in like shampoo and wash it out in the morning... it works like a charm u will have celebrity hair in seconds... ur hair gets damaged because the oils u use have lots of chemicals in them where as almond and coconut oil are natural and rich in vitimins and minerals ... trust me and try it out

best of luck and God Bless

I have short curly hair for the first time since I actually was 10 years old and We really like it but I skip my long curly locks so I am growing it back out!

Why don't you just layer your hair (cut it) it's feels so much better the having long hair plus it's the summer! it's too hot to be having long hair.
