Fight Split Ends!

Yes, another Question of the Day :)


One of my Sweet follower suffers from a quite common problem, Split Ends!
She wants to grow her hair long, but Split Ends are not allowing her :(

Hmm lets start off with the causes of split ends..

Heat ~ which includes your blow dryer, flat irons, and also exposure of sunlight..make sure you use a heat protectant before using heat tool..and use a blow dryer with 3 heat setting, cold warm and hot..so you can blow dry your hair with cold or warm air

Over washing ~ split ends also occur due to excessive washing of your hair, it takes away the moisture of your hair, especially at the ends..so don't shampoo your hair every other day and make sure you use a deep conditioner after shampooing your hair

Climate ~ yes, climate is another factor..windy, hot, or cold climate also affects your hair

Hair Accessories ~ Elastic bands also damage our hair, as they are a little hard to take off from your hair..also avoid those accessories which are too tight on your hair

Brushing/Combing ~ brushing/combing hair too much is also a cause of damage, and brushing while your hair is still wet should be avoided

Back Combing ~ i know we all love to back comb our hair, it also damages the hair, so be careful on regularl back combing

Too much Product ~ like over washing, we sometimes put too much product in our hair..like too much leave-in conditioner..it is also not advisable for your hair, also avoid leaving oil massaged in your hair for too long..massage them with a good oil 30 mins or 1 hour before washing your hair..i use coconut oil, it works great for me :)


Hmm so these were some factors which cause Split Ends, make sure you keep them in mind and try to be careful with your hair :)
Unfortunately, there is no cure for split ends..they have to be cut off..all those product which claim to cure them are fake! You will need to get your hair trimmed sometime, but if you manage to avoid the causes..your split ends wont appear quickly..which means you can delay your hair cut, but make sure you take good care of your hair :)


Hmm i think thats all, I hope this post was helpful..will love your experience and suggestions!
How do You Avoid these Nasty Split Ends?
Will be waiting for your comments/ questions/ opinions...till then, takecare :)

New Luscious Whitening Base for Oily/Combination Skin ~ Review

Image
A year or two ago when i got the Luscious Whitening Base, i looked at it and wished it came in a bigger tube..Im Happy that Luscious Cosmetics released it in a bigger better tube :) Lets see how this one performs! Whats they Say? Save Your Skin!  Sun damage has become a big part of our lives due to pollution and the environment. No matter what your age is, you are at risk of sun damage (dark patches and uneven skin tone) every time you step out without a good sun block. Here to the rescue is Luscious Whitening Base SPF 35. All in One:  • Oil-free Moisturiser  • High performance Sun Protection  • Makeup Primer The benefits: The list is endless. With continued use, you will see a visibly clearer and fairer complexion, as well as smoother skin texture. ShyCheeeks Experience Im really happy they actually changed the tube, the previous one was a little hard to squeeze and was for 'All Skin Types' Now this comes for Oily/Combination and for Dry Skin I like the concept...

Wishlist #12

1. CLINIQUE Cheek Pop Blush These blushes grabbed my attention the moment I laid my eyes upon them. They look adorable with the beautiful floral relief and I hear it's not just their looks that is spectacular, the creamy-powder hybrid formula is highly praised as well. Peach Pop appeals to me most and perhaps even Berry Pop , though it looks super bright. I really wanted to see them in person when I went to Müller a week ago, but it appears Slovenia is late to the party yet again. Boots international has them for £16.50 (about 20.6 €) . 2. DIOR ADDICT Fluid Stick and MAYBELLINE Color Elixir Lip Color   I used to own loads of lip gloss, but I have since completely switched to lipsticks resulting in a very pathetic lip gloss collection for a beauty enthusiast. These new releases by Maybelline and Dior, which are just a couple of the new takes on very pigmented versions of lip gloss formula, caught my attention. I swatched a few Dior ones in Müller and I really liked them. I al...

Hair Oils Series: Kérastase Elixir Ultime

Image
And the award for the most over-dramatic advertising goes to -  Kérastase (owned by L'Oreal): “The alchemy of four precious oils to beautify hair. A new legend is born, the secret of magnificent hair is revealed.” *Facepaw* Alchemy? Legend? Secret of magnificent hair? Give me a break. Who comes up with these things? It’s a hair product not a trailer for a fantasy blockbuster. Let’s keep it real, please. But let’s focus on the product. Packaging : A clear plastic bottle with a pump. It's good for travelling, not only because it's plastic, but also because the bottle is light. It has a pump that dispenses the product nicely and in small amounts, so it's easy to pump out the desired amount. Because the bottle is clear, it's better to keep it stored in a dark place to protect it from sunlight. Ingredients : First two ingredients are silicones as with all of these hair oils. They are followed by corn oil, argan oil, camelia oil and pracaxi oil. The rest six ingredients a...
