Split ends are every woman’s nightmare. We’ve all been there…. One day you’re just casually running your fingers through your hair and suddenly you reach the bottom of your locks and a look of disgust and horror spreads across your face…. The dreaded split end syndrome has attacked yet again!

Split ends can be caused by a variety of factors. A few being……

• Over exposure to sun
• Excessive shampoo-ing
• Using a wrong type of comb or brush
• Too much chemical treatment
• Heat damage from styling tools

But don’t lose hope! There are also many solutions to combat this notorious hair disease…

• Trim your hair every 6-8 weeks
• Protect your hair when heat-styling (Try using leave in conditioners or any other keratin enriched products such as the Brazilian Gloss After Treatment Masque)
• Avoid brushes with plastic bristles
• Avoid “cheap” shampoos that contain excess silicon which tends to strip the hair of its natural oils and nutrients

The rule of thumb, when it comes to your hair, is: less is more. Instead of shampooing your hair every day or heat styling every day invest in quality shampoos/conditioners, such as the Coco de Soleil collection, that will keep you hair naturally sleek and healthy!
