*Serum or oil: Add a small amount of serum or coconut oil to the split ends every night.

*Stop over brushing: Over brushing can lead to breakage. So avoid doing so.

*Avoid rubbing your hair after washing them as it can cause too much friction, break hair, and cause split ends. “I rinse excess water and just wrap it in a thin cotton towel,” she wrote.

*Don’t use heat on wet hair: She shared that she uses cold air to dry 70% of her hair before applying any heat. Also, she revealed that she uses a heat protectant.

*Don’t sleep in wet hair: Hair is most prone to breakage when wet, so, don’t sleep with wet hair, and also do not brush or style wet hair. Use a hair dryer on the cool setting to get your hair at least 70% dry.

She suggested avoiding tight hairstyles, too. Such hairstyles often pull the hairline and damage and weaken the follicles. “I brush and remove all knots before a hair wash,” she wrote as she revealed another tip

However, the expert said, “the tips help reduce external breakage but hair growth and health is from within. If you want to grow your hair then you have to fix your health first.”
