A split end may occur whenever your hair is dry or gets damaged through friction. If you have split ends, a single strand of hair may divide into two or more pieces at the end. You may not be able to notice a split end instantly, but it does affect the overall appearance of your hair. Split ends make hair look a little frazzled and unruly no matter how often it's combed. The split open hair cuticle absorbs more moisture and frizzes more easily. Since split ends are so problematic, one of the best benefits of frequent haircuts is that it gets rid of split ends. In fact, a haircut is actually the only way to deal with split ends. Once a hair splits, there is no way to join the ends back together. If you try to ignore it, the split will travel farther and farther up the shaft and cause more problems. Regularly cutting your hair helps to remove split ends while they are still small.
