Hair fall is a major concern these days. Split ends add to the distress for many. Split ends occur when the cuticle, the outer layer of the hair, is damaged. This damage causes hair strands to split and break. Lack of proper care and loss of nutrients in the hair are some of the reasons. Dust, pollution, dry shampoo, hair colouring, and many other factors also cause split ends and breakage. The most common solution is regular trimming of split ends. But is that enough? Is this a permanent solution? No. There are some tips and tricks we should follow. Let's see what they are.

To prevent hair breakage, limit the use of heat styling tools. Wet hair is more prone to breakage; therefore, avoid ironing at that time. When using heat styling tools, apply protective products to protect your hair. Do not rub your hair vigorously while drying. Dry your hair gently. Let's look at some tips to prevent hair breakage. For preventing split ends, night time hair regimen is important. Use silk or satin pillowcases.
