Answer 1

hello ! Cutting hair doesn't stimulate growth. there 's also another superstition that said to cut it on the full moon but guess what, we confuse hair which is dead with plants which its alive when we cut plants its grows. Yes, we should cut split ends simply because it looks ugly unless you like messy hair.

Answer 2

I am a cosmetologist and dead ends is a slang term for burnt out, over exposed, split, or whatever is wrong with your hair. Sometimes it's just ragged and old- the elements break down the hair's properties. Cosmo ladies back in the day of aerosol happy beehives coined this term as they couldn't explain it better to their clients. Hair looks alive because it grows- but it's all dead. We use slang just like everybody else.

Answer 3

Perhaps you are meaning split ends? If you have alot of split ends your hair grows slower because it is in bad condition. Also getting a regular trim stimulates hair growth so I've been told...

Go figure...

Answer 4

Answer 6

idk, but i can tell u from personal experience, that it actually does make a difference. but aside from that there's also the fact that hair grows the most during two specific times of the year, and that's when most people get theur hair cut, so they think that's the cause. ( i think it's winter and summer maybe?)
