THE IMPORTANCE OF CLIPPING YOUR ENDS

Welcome to your 1st of many posts about hair...men...you may have daughters, mothers, sisters, lovers, wives, baby mommas, boos or girlfriends that you may need to pass some of this information on to so feel free to share the link!

Most people don't like to clip their ends, simply because they perceive this as cutting, however, if you seldom clip your ends...you may need a cut. Clipping your ends is ESSENTIAL in maintaining healthy hair. Frequent use of heat (i.e. curling/flat irons) can damage the ends. Lack of proper conditioning and lack of hydration/moisture at the hair ends may also cause splitting of the ends. When the ends of the hair begin to split, they split up the shaft. This may cause the ends to be be unruly and hard to maintain. Hair that needs to be clipped at the ends WILL NOT CURL and if you are successful in curling the ends, it will give off the appearance of frizzy ends and/or thinning hair.

So....how do we repair split ends and/or prevent it? PROPER CLIPPING OF THE ENDS CAN PREVENT THIS...PROPER CONDITIONING TO THE ENDS OF THE HAIR SHAFT CAN PREVENT THIS...AND DRINKING YOUR DAILY ALLOTMENT OF WATER CAN PREVENT THIS AS WELL. Yes water...if your body stays hydrated, your scalp stays hydrated and less likely to be dry and thus will not break.
