SPLIT ENDS
Known in the medical world as "trichoptilosis" or "schizotrichia", split ends are result of fraying or splitting of the hair fibre, most typically at the end of the strand, although splitting can occasionally occur further up the hair.
All hair types can suffer from split ends for various reasons.
It can be due to how you style your hair, how intensely, what products you use, or if you use heated tools.
Certain environmental conditions like the weather (wind, rain, sun), pollution and lifestyle can also affect the quality of your hair, making it more prone to damage which can cause split ends.
Split ends and broken hair fibres can cause hair to look dry, straggly and uneven at the ends, with the lengths looking flat and dull.
When the cuticles (the overlapping scales that cover the hair strand's core) are damaged, they don't lie down flat against the fibre. This means the light does not reflect as well off the hair, which is why people with split ends often notice a lack of luminosity and depth.
These damaged cuticles are also less supple, which means they do not lie smoothly against one another, but have a tendency to tangle, create knots, and break even further.
