Split ends in your hair can make it difficult to have a good hair day.... "Split ends" refers to the splitting or fraying of the ends of your hair. The cause of split ends can be from a variety of things, like using hair dryers or flat irons, and also using chemicals in your hair, like dying or bleaching. All of these actions causes stress and damage that wears away at the protective outer layer of the hair cuticle. Also lack of proper nourishment and moisture can make this problem worse and happen easier. The most effective and best way to get rid of split ends it to cut them off, if kept untrimmed though they can break off or continue to split all the way up your hair. Here are the top 5 remedies to help manage this and also prevent split ends from returning!
1. Egg Mask: eggs are high in protein and fatty acids that help treat split ends.The egg helps strengthen the hair follicles. (mix 1 egg yolk, 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of honey. work into damp hair. leave it on for 30 minutes and then shampoo hair.)
2. Hot Oil Deep Conditioner: hot oils help restore moisture, which helps control split ends. (slightly heat olive oil, coconut oil, castor oil, and almond oil in the microwave for 20 seconds. massage into hair and scalp, leave on for 45 minutes then shampoo your hair)
3. Avocado: this works as a great deep conditioner. its packed with protein, essential fatty acids, folic acid, magnesium, vitamins A, D and E, and other nutrients that helps nourish you hair and stimulates growth. (mash 1 ripe avocado and add 2 tablespoons each of olive oil and coconut oil until you come up with a creamy consistency. apply this mask onto your hair. leave it on for at least 30 minutes, rinse and then shampoo your hair. this can be done weekly or every 1-2 months.)
4. Mayonnaise: this nourishes your hair, prevents split ends, and leaves your soft and shiny. (wet and then towel dry your hair, work a half a cup of mayonnaise into your hair. leave it in for at least 15-20 minutes. rinse, then shampoo you hair. this can be repeated once or twice a week.
5. Bananas: these are rich in natural oils, potassium, zinc, iron, vitamin A C and E which helps restore your hairs natural elasticity. (process one ripe banana, 2 tablespoons of plain yogurt, and a little rose water and lemon juice in a blender. apply the banana mask to your hair. leave this on for one hour and then wash it off. this can be repeated once or twice a week.

I ended up getting so frustrated with all the knots and messy dryness, I ended up cutting it anyway. These tips seem like they are going to work really well and I will be trying them, I'm pretty sure i have all of these ingredients to try it out!
Hope this is helpful to someone and i hope you guys enjoy it. Thank you for reading!

Nice post with really useful tips!
Recently, I chopped my hair off upto three inches to get rid of those annoying split ends. I later regret my decision, and also I don't want to get back those split ends.
After reading this post, I'm sure to follow these tips. I liked the [b]banana [/b]hair mask the most! So, it comes first in my list :)

My sister did try using the egg mask and the banana thing. And from what I saw it actually works but not that 100% and I don't even know why, but it almost take all the split ends that she had. Anyways, thank you for sharing this wonderful tips. :D
