Split ends are difficult to work with, but everyone will get them at some point. Most of the time people choose to either deal with them or go to the salon and get them trimmed right away. Since split ends can happen quickly, getting them trimmed immediately isn’t always the best option. There are many different ways you can manage your split ends without getting a haircut. A simple adjustment to your quality hair care routine is sometimes all it takes. Here are a few tips to consider to keep your split ends under control.
Eliminate Towel-Drying
It’s too easy to just grab the towel and rub it in your hair after getting out of the shower. The abrasiveness of the towel can break your hair and either be the cause of creating split ends or making them worse. Instead, try to air dry your hair, and squeeze out as much of the moisture as you can with your hands. And if you must use a towel, invest in a gentle towel to prevent damage as much as possible.
Use Sulfate Free Shampoo
Certain shampoos can cause more harm than good to your hair. That’s why it’s always important to use a good sulfate free shampoo and conditioner for your hair. Otherwise, you may be wondering why you have dry hair all the time. Shampoo with sulfates tend to cause breakage and can strip the hair of its natural oils. This simple adjustment can work wonders for your hair overall and prevent split ends from occurring.
Limit Heat Styling Tools
Using heat styling tools can be inevitable sometimes. However, try to limit your use of them as much as possible, and only use them when it’s absolutely necessary. Heat tools can lead to dry hair, since they take away the moisture from the hair. If you have to use a heat styling tool, put it on the lowest temperature setting possible to protect your hair and it will still create the results you want.
Use A Wide-Tooth Comb When Brushing Wet Hair
One of the best quality hair care practices is using a wide-tooth comb when brushing through your hair. This will allow you to brush through the knots gently and prevent damaging the hair. The best practice overall is to not brush your hair while it’s wet at all, but we understand not many people have the time to always allow their hair to air dry. Keep a wide-tooth comb handy for those situations.
