Split ends are caused by damage to the integrity of the hair shaft. Grab a small bunch of hair at the ends, and hold them at eye level in front of a light source. If they are "fuzzy" or split, they are split ends! Now you NEED to get them cut off. Go get a trim, because split ends can go all the way up the hair shaft and damage the follicle. Then you will have some PERMANENT damage done to your hair.
Good Luck!

Look at your hair close up and if you see a hair with a little V at the end then you have split ends. Everyone's hair is different though so your hair might not be so bad. Don't worry.

because your hair will be very dry and brittle at the ends. You may possibly see where the hair is visibly split at the ends or broken. A hot oil treatment that you buy at the store may help some. If they are really bad.. a good hair cut or trim, every 4-6 weeks, will take care of it.

Look closely --REALLY closely at the ends of your hair. Individual hairs will start to split into two due to dryness, damage, etc. If the damage is really bad, the hair could be split in more than one way and in more than one place.

you look really closey. take a portion of your hair and look at it. if theres any strand of hair that looks like an upside down "y", thats a split end. if you see some...get a trim/haircut. if you want your hair to be healthy and grow, get a trim every 4-6 weeks

split ends are when a strand of hair has two ends.

if your ends are split then you have split ends. if you have short hair or constantly get hair cuts then you probably dont have to worry aout it.
