  • How to stop split ends? Ends of hair really thick?

    Posted by admin on October 31st, 2009 and filed under how to cut my hair | 7 Comments »

    I got my hair cut about a month ago, and the ends of hair is thicker than the rest of my hair?
    Will it eventually thin out or how do I need to go to the hairdressers again to think it out?

    Plus, what are some good products to fix split ends?
    I don’t straighten my hair much, only once a week if I do.
    But my split ends seem to get worse ;l

    The only thing that will completely fix the split ends is to cut them off. To keep your hair healthy and prevent product buildup, rinse it with an apple cider vinegar solution (1-2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar in 1 cup of warm water) about once per week when you wash your hair; leave the solution in your hair for about a minute or two then shampoo and condition as you normally do.

    Another thing that will nicely condition hear and leave it shiny is beer. After you wash your hair, apply a few tablespoons of FLAT beer to your hair and let it sit for a minute or two. Then rinse and style as usual.

    To thin out the ends, ask for a razor cut. If the hairdresser does it right, it will look very nice. If you feel comfortable, you can even do it yourself. Look for youtube videos on razor cutting the hair – they have some really good descriptive videos.

    i was wondering, when you were growing up did you get your hair cut at home? when did you first go out to get it cut?

    My mom would maybe cut my bangs here and there (whos mom DIDN’T give there daughters those wow you just got your bangs cut look lol) anyhow, someone at a salon usualy has always cut my hair. In high school, my friends and I would cut eachother hair sometimes. I was the only one that ended up going to school and making a career out of it lol.

    How do you have your hair cut short without looking like a chav?

    Your comments or opinions please.

    Do you like the chav style hair cut or is there an differant option for short hair.

    depends what you define as a "chav" hairstyle. There are a number of ways that hair can be cut short. You cannot define a haircut as a chav look, i have always had short hair and by far do not look like a chav. What style do you want or define as "chav"?

    I’ve heard it’s really easy, but I want to see an instructional video of sorts, or at least something like the steps. A little help?

    There really isn’t any steps.
    You just kind of start chopping off hair in random spots.

    How do you cut your own hair layers?

    How do you cut your hair, and cut your own layers? I just trimmed my own hair using the technique to brush it all forward and trim the ends and it worked out great! Does anyone know how to cut your own layers?
    I just cut my own hair using the technique to comb it all forward while wet, and slowly work from one end to the other. It worked wondefully! Its a great saver so I dont have to go to the salon so much (I have very long hair that grows very quickly), and great for inbetween significant cuts.

    I was wondering if anyone knows how to cut their own layers?

    I will still be going to the salon to upkeep them, but Id love to know how to cut them inbetween salon visits. Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Well, if you’re not afraid to try it,….. here’s a way I’ve tried and it worked out fine. I’m a hairdresser,…. but if you follow what I say it should turn out fine too. I’ve done it a few times now on my own hair. The best suggestion I can give you is for you to buy one of those combs that hairdressers use with the measurements marked along the back of the comb. Unless your hair is much longer than the length of the comb this may not work for you. But if you have a good eye for length this could still work. So, once you decide how long you want your top layer to be, you take a 1 X 1 square inch section of your hair at the top of your head to start with or to use for a guideline,or a couple of centimetres square, and hold the comb with the measurements beside it and decide your length. Be sure to hold each section of hair at a 90 degree angle out from your head to be sure of it’s length, this is how to measure it. Once you decide what length you want to cut that layer the rest is just the same. Cut all your hair on your head the same length by sectioning it all off into one square inch each time you plan to make the cut. So if for instance you decided to cut all the hair on your head to 7 inches then that is the length you measure off in each section and then just clip it at the 7 inch mark or what ever length you desire it to be. If the length you desire is longer than the comb you can likely guess how much beyond the length of the comb you would like to cut it and then just do the same to the rest of your hair. Once you have completed cutting all your hair to the same length from your scalp to the end, then you could lean forward and comb all your hair forward towards your face and if any hairs are standing out too long just trim them down to match the rest of your hair. You may have to blend it some at the fromt corners of your hair to ensure there are no long pieces sticking out. I hope you find this helpful. Maybe it sounds a bit too complicated but it really isn’t. It may take you a little while, but always make sure you are holding your hair out from your head at a 90 degree angle when you are measuring and cutting it. It would likely be best if you could get someone to help you with it in the back as it can be a bit difficult to see what you are doing yourself to the back of your hair unless you are good with mirrors you may have no trouble. It also can be a bit trying on the arms especially if you are not used to using them above your head. Well, here’s wishing you the best of luck with your hair. But this is a good trick to layer your own hair or to get someone to help you with it. Good Luck!!!

    If you already have layers and you are wanting to trim it for a healthier look and feel, the same method could be applied and just trim about an inch or a couple of centimetres to give it a fresh look. Hope this is helpful.
