    THIRD - And thirdly, and what I think could have been the big reason why you experience new split is that a lot of people wrongly assume that keeping your hair away for a long time in braids or weave is a good for persevering your hair while it grows. If you don't install and maintain it properly, it could cause even more hair loss and breakage.

    Just dropping a summary of the points as a reminder to self:
    1) Use real protein treatments which will strengthen your cuticles and slow down the splitting process
    2) Trimming is important but if you're trying to gain length you shouldn't trim your hair often.
    3) Trim your hair/Cut off split ends when your hair is dry not wet.
    4) Ensure the scissors you use is as sharp as possible (makes the cuts a lot smoother)
    5) When cutting your hair, try not to cut it at an angle, but straight.
    Lovely video, thanks @Green Beauty

  • @GreenBeauty
    @GreenBeauty  11 років тому +46

    lol okay to clarify, what I mean is that your cuticles are scales that lay on top and protect your cortex like a shield. Over time activities like applying heat, manipulating, washing will eventually cause damage and strip away at your cuticles. Leaving your cortex exposed. Your cortex is very fragile and once its exposed will start to split. I was comparing your "cuticles to a protective shield" not "split ends to a protective shield". I hope this makes sense. :-)

  • @GreenBeauty

      hi, I've been watching your videos lately. I absolutely love all the information I'm learning. It's very detailed and I'm learning a lot. And I'm just starting my hair journey. So I'm looking to everything to help on my hair journey. But it feel like everything so overwhelming as I learn. Like what I shouldn't do or do so it's difficult. But I've always been natural. But I never put energy in my hair. Expect washing bi weekly and putting it into a protective hairstyles. Now I've found that high porosity hair and it very thick and medium dense. I'm just trying to find out a good place to start. I've started moisturizing my hair daily with loc method I usually use aloe vera spray or leave in hair milk spray, leave in cream, and castor oil or coconut oil. But still my hair comes out frizzy even after moisturizing it daily. For wash day, I don't have complete regiment yet. But I usually wash my hair bi weekly: shampoo, deep conditioner hair mask, rice water rinse (for my protein treatment), and then the loc method. Overall, I'm highly frustrated, confused, and stressed. Because I don't where to start on my hair journey. I was wondering if I could get some tips or info that could help me get started on my whole hair journey.
      Thank you, jamarrea

    SECOND - Stylist usually cut hair at an angle with increases the surface area of your ends and increases the chances of more splits. Secondly, its possible that the shampoo that was used to wash your hair at the place you got the braids and full weave could have been to harsh and drying, which causes your cuticles layers to just break off.

    FIRST - Okay so since split end equate to cuticle damage. the only way to avoid or at east slow down the process is to be as gentle as you can to your hair strands, eliminated any drying activities to your hair strands, and eliminate the use of harsh ingredients in the products you use. Your new split ends could have been caused from a number of things. First, the method in with the stylist cut your hair could be to blame for causing you end to be weak and unravel easily.

    (1) Thank You... I sill recommend the LCO method over the LOC and the LOCO. B/c in both cases, the "O" is blocking your hair from absorbing the moisture from the "C". Oils should be use as the last layer to seal. If the oil you are using is not sealing is the moisture from the "L" and the "C" well enough,

This is so frustrating. I was trimming them and they would re-appear. I think it's because of my scissors which I ditched and got a new pair. I'm hoping this will fix it all because I don't abuse my hair at all.
