Split Ends

I hate split ends, who doesn't, they make your hair look dry and tired. If you have split ends it usually means your hair is not getting enough nourishment and moisture. Using harsh shampoos, going out in the sun, blow drying, straightening, coloring, and bleaching all dry out your hair. There are a few things that can help improve the health.
- Eat foods high in vitamins A, B, C, E and K to keep your hair from unnecessary breakage. Try adding more sweet potatoes, dark leafy greens, carrots, oranges, and plums to your diet. 
- One of the worst things you can do is start brushing through your hair with a hairbrush when your hair's still wet. You'll end up with breakage, frizz and split ends to show for it. 
-Drink at least eight to 10 glasses of water each day, full glasses, not sips. Because if your not hydrated, your skin and hair will show signs of dehydration.
-Avoid shampoos that contain alcohol as it dries out hair. Use shampoos that contain natural ingredients. Also, Excessive washing with harsh shampoos makes your hair ends dry.  Also, do not use hot water to wash your hair.
-Let your hair dry naturally, try to avoid styling tools.  Want curls or waves, try rollers with damp hair. 
-If all else fails, shave your head, a little to drastic,but you get my point.
