Answer 1

If you look closely at the bottom strands of your hair, it will kinda like different strands growing on the one. Almost like a tree brach, with different branches sprouting of the main one. Just cut the ends of your hair about a half inch will do.

Answer 2

When you look at your hair ends (in a small section) you will see that most ends are thick and straight or have an even curl. As you get into the smaller sections of the small section you might see a few hair ends that look thin brittle, and maybe a little bend and broken. Most of the time when you see hair ends like this, follow the strand up and you will see a second strand coming off of the base strand. That is a split end. It means that the hair is dead or broken. Everyone needs to get at least a half inch to one and a half inch trim every 4 to 6 weeks, this will keep your ends from spliting and make your hair grow faster. Also, use conditioner on those ends, not just at the roots, this will make split ends smoother and less likely to break inbetween hair cuts.

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.

Answer 4

When you ends are split that just means that you need a trim; if you look at a section of your hair and the ends of it look kind of raggedy or frizzy that's what split ends look like. Really the only thing that you should do is get your ends trimmed and get a really good shampoo and conditioner.Hope this helps!!

Answer 5

Look at the ends of your hair if there is a split at the end of each piece of hair you have split ends.If you can pull the spilt part apart thats split ends. I think brushing your hair with a bad brush or using too much hair spray or other hair products can cause split ends..

Answer 6

yes you can describe it, your end get kinda dry and it looks like an upside down y where the hair split off. Blow drying the hair and using styling tools can often cause the hair to dry out and the hair to get split ends...I know from personal experience. Get your hair trimmed and use a good conditionier.

Answer 7

split ends are when a single strand of hair splits at the end. Keep the hair trimmed and this should not be a problem for anyone.

Answer 8

Answer 10

Split ends... gah they suck ... lol its little pieces of hair that are broken off due to dry or fryed dead or unhealthy hair its from straightening and using heat and not protecting your hair to prevent split ends put a serum in your hair or a conditioning mask everyweek ...a test to show you hair is healthy is put a peice of hair in a glass and fill it with water if it sinks your hair is dead if it floats than your hair is healthy :) hope you understand
