how to get of rid of split ends completely?

Answer 1

I am sorry to tell you the only thing that you can do for spit ends is cut them. If you don't all they will end up doing is splitting farther and farther up and it will look like your hair was cut anyway. The only thing is that it will be much shorter than if you would have just gotten it trimmed in the beginning.

Hope this helps~Bon

You need to cut your hair...and I know that's probably no what you wanted to hear. Take it all the way up so it's past your split ends. Then follow these steps to prevent it hapening again...never comb or brush you hair when wet. It's too weak at that time. Try not to use styling products like curling irons and blow dryers. Refrain from coloring or bleaching your hair. Don't scrub it dry with a towl, instead pat or squeeze it to get out the excess water. Always use a conditioner and if your hair is dry do a weekly at home treatment. And last but not least, invest in quality hair products. They really do make a difference. Best of luck to you!

How to Get Rid of Split Ends

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------




When hair becomes dry or damaged, the hair shaft splits at the end. Here's how you can keep those unsightly splits from spoiling the looks of your locks.


Steps:
1. Keep brushing to a minimum since it promotes breakage. Brushing wet hair is a definite no-no; use a wide-toothed comb when hair is wet.

2. Strive for low-maintenance hair. Hair dryers, curling irons, perms and hair colors all damage hair. If you must blow-dry, use a cool setting and keep the dryer 6 inches (15 cm) from your hair.

3. Protect your hair from extreme weather. Wear a hat on sunny days and keep hair well moisturized in the dry winter months.

4. Apply a leave-in conditioner or pomade to the ends of your hair daily to keep them strong.

5. Snip away any split ends you spot. Cut at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) above the split. A split end will split the hair all the way up to the scalp, so snip it as soon as you spot it.

6. Schedule a trim with your hairstylist if you start seeing a lot of split ends.

Overall Tips:
Ask your stylist to recommend thermal protection products.


Overall Warnings:
Be wary of promises from the makers of products for split ends. These bind the hair shaft temporarily. The only real cure is a haircut.


Tips from eHow Users:
Prevention of split ends by DENISE K.
Once your hair has grown out of the skin, it is like the free edge of your nails - dead! You can prevent the look of split ends with hair products, but once they are there, the only way to get save your hair is to cut them off. Do not follow the brush when dry, and comb when wet rule.




As soon as you see split ens, cut them off.

Take the portion of your hair that has split ends. Twist it (like a wringing motion). Cut/trim the hairs that stick out of the chunk of twisted hair. Be careful, you don't want to cut a chunk of your hair off.
