Split Ends!
What exactly are split ends? The technical
term is Trichoptilosis, that’s the tip of a person's hair that has split from
dryness or ill-treatment. This is a common problem for most of us. The
splitting of the hair occurs when the protective cuticles are destroyed at the
ends of the hair. The hair will then split into two or more strands. What you
want to avoid is your hair splitting all the way near top of the shaft. When
that occurs that hair will be ruined.
What causes
split-ends?
Excessive Combing - Excessive combing will cause
your hair to break and split. The more you handle your hair, the more you’ll
damage it. Be gentle, keep your hair healthy by not being so harsh with the
comb.
Bleaching and Heat - Blow dryers, curling & straightening irons, and bleaching products all add to the stress of your hair.
Towel Drying - Towel drying
can be very harmful to the health of your hair. If you rub your hair harshly
with the towel, the friction will cause breakage. Instead, you should gently
squeeze the water out of your hair with the towel. This will help you to avoid
split ends.
The Solution To Split-Ends…..
Proper Hair Maintenance - Try not to brush your hair
while it's wet. Get regular trims, have it cut a half inch to one
inch of your split ends, depending on the degree of damage. See your
hairdresser and get the hair properly trimmed or splitting will continue if
left unattended.
One major myth is that split-ends can be repaired.
They can’t. What good products can do is strengthen the hair to help avoid
further damage until you’ve solved the problem. We all want to stay beautiful
and change our look whenever we feel the need. In order to counter act the
treatments we love, here are a few products I recommend to keep your hair
strong and minimize splitting ends: Tresemme Anti Breakage vitamin B12 & gelatin hair conditioner & treatments,Herbal Essences long relationship leave in split end protector . Remember, proper hair maintenance is a must to keep healthy hair beautiful and sexy hair ! Till next time ..... Missy

The benefits of drinking water~Healthy hair!
Want to keep that fresh salon healthy shiny look to your hair? Keep it simple. Drink water! Water supports your hair in the deep layers of the skin and works in combination with the scalp's natural oils to maintain moisture. If enough water is not stored in the body your hair will look dull as a result of dryness and result to a frizzy look and a lot of split ends. None of us like that! Remember, proper hydration starts from the inside. Drinking 4 to 8 cups of water a day to stay hydrated will keep your hair strong, aid in food digestion and maintain that radiance we all love. Damaged hair isn’t attractive. Keeping those locks full of moisture is not an option, for great hair it’s a requirement. So, next time you see yourself going for that juice or soda, put it back and grab the water! It’s essential to maintain the look you want, sexy, healthy, shiny and beautiful hair. Till next time...Missy

Healthy and Beautiful hair on a budget!
Who says having healthy, and beautiful hair has to break the bank? I've found some amazing $15 and under products that gives you that expensive salon look and at a fraction of the cost. Okay, here we go:
Shampoos& Conditioners
For you color treated gals give Suave professionals Keratin Infusion Color Care a try. It cleanses your hair while minimizing the fading of the color. It also gives you a beautiful shine and smooth to the touch feeling. For frizzy, dry, damaged locks I got something for you! It’s TRESemme Naturals Moisture. Both of these products provide that moisture your hair is missing.
Hair Protection
Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Flat Iron Perfector Straightening Mist is top notch. First of all it smells great! I've used this myself and on most of my clients, from thick coarse hair to thin. It's a hit!! If you're gonna flat iron, I recommend protection, protection, protection! That's exactly what this product does. It's one of my personal faves. Now for those little frizzes. We all have them from time to time and a good solution is Suave Sleek Anti Frizz Cream. It's a creamy product and it doesn’t weigh your hair down, nor is it greasy which I love! It’s a great product to use after a flat iron or a good blow dry and you get this pretty shine. That’s always a plus!
Hairsprays
I like the hold, but touchable feeling so I'm recommending Dove Flexible Hold. I use this on my curls, up-dos and also on my straight hair days. It's awesome! It allows your hair to look naturally pretty without feeling stiff. Thank you for the support! And remember Healthy Hair is Beautiful Hair!! Till next time............Missy
