When I had long hair, I had many split ends. I used to cut them off myself or sometimes went to the parlor for a trim. I think trimming it time to time is the best thing to do for split ends. Now I have a really short hair and don't really have any problems of split ends.

I've never heard this saying, now it has me thinking deeply. I have short hair, im actually in the process of letting it grow out. But being that I decided to cut my hair I started going to the barber shop to get a cut and a tape up. So this has me thinking. But on the topic of split ends. Everybody get split ends ever once in a while, i just clip mines in able to let my hair grow.

:) haha, some men like hair long or short. My boyfriend likes it longs, but I cut it anyway because I wanted something different. But you are right the majority of men do like long hair.

that's myth. go to the salon, have your hair cut, to remove the split ends, and the get a shampoo for dry hair, to make your hair more smoother. also when brushing your hair, use a comb. Hair brush can also destroy the hair, comb will remove the tangles..

hello asia, Hair having split ends usually are dry hair. All you need to do is changed your shampoo and observed after a week if split ends become less. if still having same problem then,have it trimmed and also apply for hot oil. One reason for having split ends is also lack of sleep or bad eating habit. Eat fruits and drink a lot of water and have enough sleep. Then treat your hair with hot oil even once a month if your hair is a bit dry. The oldies saying is just superstition,nothing true about it.

hehe I never heard of that.It just sounds like a superstition to me and People say the cure to split ends are trimming your edges and to be careful of the brushes and combs you use as they can split your ends as well.

I always get split ends, I don't cut them off myself because I don't want to screw it. I go to have a haircut regularly just to have the dean end cut off.

Use a shampoo which is right for your hair type. I,myself use nutritional hair conditioner for my hair regularly. I cut it regularly like every 6 - 10 weeks.
