MissNiceness answered Friday March 31 2006, 12:36 pm: I also have an issue with split ends. Split ends can be triggered by heat styling; but I myself never straighten or use heat styling and they are still a problem. The key is to moisterize. I make my own hair spritz of water, jojoba & almond oil (not too much), vitamin E (I take the liquid gel caps and break them open) and some 911 brand leave-conditioner, and put that all in a spray bottle. I spritz on before and during styling.
You may also want to change hairstyles sometimes. Sleek ponytails and updos and large braids minimize exposure to the elements (think of a flag that is constantly being whipped around in the wind - eventually it frays!) Get regular trimmings. If the problem persists, you may want to consult a hair care professional. [ MissNiceness's advice column | Ask MissNiceness A Question ]

And you can do hot oil treatmeant. They are easy you can buy kits for them at any drug store. And maybe you wanna get haircuts more often. Just like even a trim just to make sure you cutting off the dead ends.

Next time you get a hair cut, consider getting it thinned out a bit.
Also, as Xo_ShErRy_Ox said, heat can hurt your hair. Try using heat styling hair products, or just skip out on it all together. There are other ways to style hair. [ VixenDark's advice column | Ask VixenDark A Question ]

Usually you get split ends when you straighten your hair.
Dont compleltly stop straightening your hair, but instead of doing it so much...try different hair styles like scrunching hair, to give your hair a break from the heat once in a while. Also, split ends will less likley show up if you dont do it as much.
