Split ends are a common problem that affects the health and appearance of hair, leaving it dry, rough and prone to frizz. However, with some simple care, it is possible to prevent and minimize this nuisance. Check out the tips from Elaine Mantoaneli, technical coordinator at Yamá Cosméticos, to keep your hair beautiful and healthy.
Causes of split ends
Split ends appear mainly due to dryness and lack of proper care. These factors leave hair rough, brittle and vulnerable to frizz.
Regular cutting: the key to preventing split ends
Maintaining a trimming routine is essential. The ideal is to trim the ends every 90 days, eliminating the damaged ends that compromise the hair's appearance.
Recommended products and treatments
To prevent or reduce split ends, using the right products is essential. The Repair Yamá line, with the active ingredient Bio.Restore, is an excellent choice for restoring the health of the hair fiber and keeping it protected.
Protection against heat sources
Hair dryers, flat irons and curling irons are major villains of split ends. Excessive heat damages the hair fiber, leaving it dry and brittle. Before using these devices, apply a thermal protector, such as Liss Repair Thermal Protector, to minimize damage and preserve the health of your hair.
Tip repairer vs. treatments
An end repairer is ideal for finishing the hair, controlling frizz and disguising split ends, leaving the hair looking healthier. Treatments such as masks and leave-ins are essential for maintaining hydration and preventing further damage.
Is it possible to eliminate split ends without cutting?
Unfortunately, you can't get rid of split ends without cutting them off. However, treatments and leave-ins help minimize the problem by extending the interval between cuts.
Split ends can be avoided with regular care, the use of quality products and protection against thermal damage. Follow these tips to ensure your hair is healthy, beautiful and full of life.
