What are the harms?

All of these factors can stunt hair growth and make it dull. These factors can lead to damaged, weak, and unhealthy hair.

You can prevent split ends like this.
Don't wash your hair every day: If you wash your hair every day, you inadvertently damage the natural oils present in it. This reduces the moisture in your hair. Instead, wash your hair every two to three days.

Pay attention to the type of hairbrush: To prevent split ends, it's also important to pay attention to the type of hairbrush you use. Choose a hairbrush with flexible and wide teeth. Try to detangle the ends before combing. Avoid combing vigorously. Use heating products only after combing, and always use a wide-toothed comb on wet hair.
Don't rub shampoo into your hair: After applying shampoo to your scalp and rinsing, the shampoo will reach the rest of your hair as soon as you rinse. You don't need to apply more shampoo separately.

Apply to the ends first: Apply conditioner to the ends before applying it to any other part of your hair.

Avoid heat drying: Avoid heat drying, especially on the ends. Products like blow dryers are meant for the middle of the hair, not the ends.

Change your styling method: If you're using a curling iron, avoid applying too much heat to the ends. Instead of curling the iron from root to tip, place the iron at the root and then slowly move the hair around it.

Get trimmed: To keep your hair healthy and prevent split ends, get it trimmed regularly. You can do this every two to three months.
