i think i have a little split ends, but im not sure how to keep from getting them so my hair grows healthy.. i heard that if you wear your hair down more often than wearing it up that you will get less split ends because the hairtie is not cutting into the hair with pressure... is this true?
and should i not be blow drying my hair??

Split ends come, and split ends go...if you trim them off. I'll bet you're glad to hear that everyone has them at least. You should get fairly regular trims, if you want to grow it out, try every 2 1/2 to 3 months, and if you don't, you can get it every 6 weeks.
1. Blow drying your hair tends to dry it out, and too dry is never good, so moisturize afterwards. Blowdrying your hair too often isn't good period.
2. Yes, it does strain your hair when you pull it back-make sure you get ouchless hair bows at least, or cloth covered ones.

It might be parcially true, but it honestly depends on the hair things and how tight you wear it. Often times split ends are caused by the hair drying out from over styling. Find a leave in deep conditioning treatment (a good one, you might have to pay a little more for it) and put that in your hair after you wash it and it's still wet. Normally the directions tell you to leave it for so long, ect. The best advice I got from my hair dresser is that you need to open the cuticles in order for those treatments to work. Take a plastic bag and wrap it tightly around your hair and wear that for at least ten minutes or so. If needed, stick the hair dryer in the bag for a minute to get the heat started. Your own body heat will take care of the rest of it. The longer you leave it, the more it will condition. Then once you're done, rinse and you should have much healtier hair. Do this often to keep it moisturized, expecially if you stlye it often.

Yes it is true, but if you have healthy strong hair(which is achieved through using good salon quality hair products and eating lots of healthy fruits and veges) a regular haircut will help to keep split ends at bay.Try not to wear your hairtie too tight as well.Heat styling(blow drying) is ok in moderation, but make sure you protect it with a good quality heat protectant.This wont stop them, but it will help make your hair healthier, thus; not so many split ends!!

split ends are a fact of life as some have stated previously, but I just wanted to share my experience; which is that I went to get my hair done every 2 weeks and every 2 weeks that i went I got a lil trim. again I say trim not cut and this may seem a lil extreme at first, but this kept my hair healthy and growing and b4 long my hair had stretched out. I'm not saying u may need growth, but health wise my hair looked and felt awesome and it seemed I had much more Bounce and life.

blow drying your hair will definitely cause more split ends and damage to your hair. that doesnt stop me from blow drying my hair every morning before school, i cant stand going out with my hair wet! anyways, if the split ends are really bugging you, get a hair cut every 2 weeks.

The longer you bypass away it, the extra it is going to situation. Then as quickly as you're executed, rinse and you need to have a lot healtier hair. try this in many circumstances to maintain it moisturized, expecially in case you stlye it in many circumstances.

Doesn't matter what you do or treat it with--split ends are a fact of life. Just trim a half inch off every month and nobody will ever know.

You can't. Everyone gets split ends, it's just normal. You can minimize the toll it takes on your hair by getting regular trims.
