Split ends are a very common problem that affects who wants to grow gorgeous looking tresses. Split ends are most likely to appear on dry and brittle long hair but can develop on shorter hair as well. While there are hundreds of products on the market that claim that split ends can be repaired the truth is that the hair doesn’t have regenerative properties so split ends cannot be repaired in any way once the damage has been done. Preventing split ends by embracing a good hair care routine or trimming our hair are the only viable options that really work.
1. Avoid using excessive styling products like hair sprays and gels. These styling products will strip out sebum and dry out your mane. Making it more susceptible to breakages
2. Avoid applying heat on your tresses. Stay away form heating tools such as the blow-dryer; straighteners, hot rollers or curlers. Heat will dry out your locks and cause breakages and damage.
3. Minimize or stop using products that contain chemicals. These include: dyes; perms and relaxers. If you do want to use them then you should limit their use to twice a month.
4. Make sure you cut all spilt ends and dead ends. Split ends will run down to the root of your hair if not removed. So cut all damaged hair once every eight weeks
5. To avoid splits from occurring do not over wash or shampoo your mane. And avoid using hot water on your locks.
6. Avoid wearing tight hair styles as they will pull and tug at your tresses and will cause splits and damage.
7. Finally the absolute best way to avoid dry brittle hair is to prevent them from occurring in the first place. And there is a product that will do just that. It is called Mira hair oil. The oil acts as a deep conditioning treatment for all kinds of hair. It will not only repair split ends and dry hair it will also acts as a moisturizer which will prevent your hair from getting dry and breaking up in the first place.
8. Finally keep your mane well moisturized with the above mentioned oil. A hair that is moisturized will be less likely to break and split off.
Follow these eight simple steps and you will no longer have weak, dry and brittle tresses to deal with

YESSS! I never tried Mira hair oil but heard coconut oil is really good, especially for curly hair!
I have really dry and damaged hair. It is always getting tangled with itself because of the split-ends, and it feels brittle.
I have been looking for a good leave-in conditioner for awhile now. I’ve tried many different brands. Many left my hair stiff, like styling gel, while others left it greasy, and some just didn’t seem to do anything at all.
A couple of months ago I decided to try bottle of Shielo’s Antioxidant Leave in Protectant, because the stylist at an expensive salon in NYC recommended it. I thought “why not?”
Before I go into further detail, let me explain my hair more. It is on the longer side, straight, very fine, and color treated. I just wanted to give more info since different hair types might have different results. What works for my straight hair might not work as well for curly hair, and so forth.
The first day I used it I combed it into my towel dried hair, giving the ends of my hair a little extra. The first thing I noticed was that the product wasn’t really sticky like many of the other products I have tried, which is great. It also has a very nice scent. Once my hair had dried it was noticeably silkier, smoother, and tangle free! The scent lingered all day.
I have continued to use the product everyday for the past two months. There has been visible improvement in my hair. It isn’t as dry anymore, the split-ends haven’t gotten worse, and my hair has more shine. Overall, it just looks and feels much healthier.
