All About Hair: Keeping Split Ends At Bay During Cold Winter Months

 Cold winter air can be extremely drying which can result in brittle and/or split ends.  Some people do regular trims to keep their split ends at bay, however, I do not.  I use the "seek and destroy" or also referred to as "dusting" method, which entails removing only the hairs with split ends. After blow drying my hair, I part it into 4 sections.  I check the ends of each section and snip wherever it's needed.  I do this once every couple of months. This practice along with daily moisturizing minimizes excessive split ends for me.

Daily moisturizing has been the real lifesaver. I use a leave-conditioner each day (sometimes twice a day) and then I seal my ends with shea butter or a castor oil and olive oil mix.  Keeping the ends moisturized makes them more pliable so that they are less likely to dry out and break off and/or split.  Here are a few leave-in conditioners that I use to help combat dry ends:

Knot Today
Jane Carter Solution 
Shea Moisture
Chi Keratin Mist

What are some of your favorite products you use to keep your split ends under control?
