Cutting my split ends - what split ends look like

  • You've probably heard a million times that you should visit a hair salon or barber shop for a trim every six months, or else you'll have split ends in your hair. But what do split ends look like? In this video, I show you several types of split ends, so you can see what split ends look like and there's a variety.
    I haven't had a trim in months and also I bleach and color and bleach my hair often. Thus, it's super important to get regular trims, as split ends can continue to split all the way up your hair shaft. (I will be having most of my hair cut off soon, to get rid of all this damaged hair).

      @@laur3n838 Why. The search and destroy method is very effective for reducing manage whilst retaining length as when you just cut all of the ends you end up cutting healthy he=air that didn't need it and still missing most of the split ends that are further up the hair shaft and will continue to split upwards that causes tangles and therefore more damage.

    call me weird but i have been peelinng my split ends since i was 9 years old and now i'm 25 so you can tell it has been a long time. It is extremely entertaining and satisfying but i have ruined my vision a little. I recommend using solid black or white backgrounds for best results and slightly less strain on the eyes but my best recommendation is to never start doing it bc once you start, it'll be impossible to stop

      I used to have this problem cause of a friend who kept peeling it for me I ended up doing it as well. I have no idea how I got pass doing it but it was probably cause i found out it damages the hair. But what I do when I get tempted to peel it off, I cut the split end in a longer strand so that I can just peel it without it damaging my overall hair any further :>

      Then you are lucky. Or take a section of hair and pinch lightly between your fingers, gently pull upwards whilst still holding the ends with the other hand and if you have any split ends they will show themselves as they will flick upwards.

      It’s best to cut them before they split further up the shaft.
      Use conditioning treatments.
      Rinse hair in cold/cool water to close the hair shafts. Towel dry and let air dry.
      In the winter, wear a hat to cover up your hair.
      Doing all the above will help you avoid split ends.

    i love peeling my split ends, but instead of peeling them straight down the middle and continuing the breakage upwards, i peel one part of the end completely in the opposite direction and fast so it breaks off quickly. by doing this i never feel like i need to get a trim so my hair can keep growing and i'm not thinning my own hair and i have a nice feathered look at the bottom of my hair.

    • @KatSurth
      @KatSurth  2 роки тому

      Split ends can cause hair breakage and make your hair look fuzzy. If you look at the ends of your hair, if one strand has one strand at the bottom, that’s normal. If your single strand has two or more strands on the end, that is split ends
