Hi, I've used a blow dryer since 1971 DAILY. That's every day -- over 8,800 days. Sometimes twice in one day. I've never used curling irons, but I used to use heat rollers for a short time.

Shampoos, conditioners and leave-in products help to keep the hair in its best condition. But, some leave-in products such as mousse can cause build-up. It's the products that build up that can cause the breakage and lead to split ends. If heat stylers are used daily, that can cause breakage and split ends.

Overprocessed hair causing damage and hair that is overhandled and abused through product and heat utensils can cause split ends......but, in this day and age, there are enough products to choose from.

Just handle it with care when its wet. A gel product or whatever one uses to add body used with finger drying and not brushing through until the hair is almost dry will help keep the hair shaft smooth.

Regular haircuts keep the ends strong and in good condition.

A wider nozzle hairdryer will give you more heated air volume rather than more direct heated air force. There are ionizing hair dryers, as well as a volumizing one.


What hairstyle do you have at this time?

What are you wanting to achieve through styling your hair?

What hair products (shampoo, conditioner, styling, finishing) do you use?


Maybe I can offer some suggestions for you.
