It really isn't determined by your hairstyle. But here are some ways to prevent split ends~

Over brushing will cause split ends and exaggerated backcombing will also make the hair split since it is disturbing the cuticle.
Brushing hair when it is still wet is one of the most important causes for split ends because wet hair stretches by as much as 25%.

Coloring and perms make hair weak and vulnerable for split ends. This type of hair needs extra care and should be treated with the appropiate products. Use a lot of conditioner and comb your hair through before rinsing it out.

Heated appliances can make hair become dry and finally it splits. Try to avoid using heated hair appliances as much as possible! If you are using them anyway, make sure to protect your precious locks with a potective product.

Towel drying is not good if you want to avoid splitting hair. You should blot your hair and then carefully comb it through with a wide toothed comb. Avoid using a hair dryer as much as possible since the heat won't do any good to your hair.

Elastic bands and all sorts of other hair accessories can damage your hair. Avoid using uncovered elastic bands since these often pull out hair when being removed. Other accessories will damage or weaken the ends of the hair.

And last but not least: Your health will affect your hair.
If you have a dry scalp your hair will split faster because there is not enough lubrication on the hair follicle. Dull hair caused by a low fat diet will also be more vulnerable.

Hope this helps~

Any hairstyle which requires blowdrying or other manner of heat application. To a lesser extent, the perpetual use of hair products that contain large amounts or alcohol.

Oh yeah and hairstyles that require a lot of brushing and "grooming". The less time you spend running objects through your hair, the healthier it will be. Wash and go hairstyles are healthiest.

Hope this helps.

It does not depend on ur hairstyle.
If u trim ur hair regularly(every 3-4 months) and use a good conditioner,u wont get split ends.

It's in the genes! Hairstyle has nothing to do with it.
