Let’s get to know the different types of “split ends”

Split ends are hair ends that split into branches like tree branches. The severity depends on the split ends and the distance from the ends to the roots. The more split ends, the drier, puffier, more brittle, and more prone to breakage and styling. For severely split ends, the most common solution is to cut the hair to prevent it from spreading. However, this is still not the solution to the root cause. 

Today, let’s learn about the different types of split ends.

  1. Baby Spilt is a hair that splits into two small strands at the end. This is an early stage of split ends. It can still be treated to return to normal by adding nutrients to the hair to nourish it back to health.
  2. Y Spilt is a split end that is similar to the first type, but the split ends are longer and split into two strands that look like the letter Y. The length from the split ends down is about 1 cm. This type of split end can still be treated to return the hair to normal, but it may require special care.

  1. Taper (Candle) This type of split ends looks like a peeled wire, similar to a candle, revealing the core of the hair inside. This is a symptom indicating that the hair in that area is completely damaged and cannot be cared for to return to normal. That part of the hair should be trimmed.
  2. Tree This type of hair has split ends into many strands, and each length has branches like a tree branch. This is a very severe stage and cannot be cured. The only solution is to cut it off.

  1. Feather Hair split ends appear as many stripes as feathers. This is another symptom that cannot be cured and returned to normal. It must be cut off to prevent it from spreading.
  2. Deep Hair that splits from the middle before reaching the ends looks like branching out. This type of hair-splitting can still be maintained. It should be treated quickly before it reaches the Taper stage.
