Luscious Healthy Ends Challenge 2015/2016

My ends were feeling & looking thin & weak. I made a new mix of neutral protein filler, silk amino acids, aloe vera juice, & squirt of giovanni direct leave in/giovanni smooth as silk con. I spray it on before I do my pre poo or during the week before moisturizing. It gives a little strength.
 
Did a curlformer set to stretch my hair. My ends look OK but I can tell when trying to work through my hair, I could tell I still have a lot of splits higher up my strands. I'm just going to have to keep clipping. It seems like it gets better with each trim so I'm just going to have to be patient.
 
This thread gives me a reminder to moisturize my ends and for that I'm grateful. I am currently using Biolage Hydrasource leave in tonic as my liquid, and alternating Keracare Jojoba Moisturizer and Dudley's PCA Moisture Retainer sealed with sunflower oil. Sometimes if my ends need it, I'll use a heavy butter, for example, avocado butter, to seal. I feel the butters help to keep the knots at bay.

Gonna have my ends trimmed in a few weeks. Seeing fewer short hairs which is nice... I think I'm going to keep conditions that have light protein in them in rotation.
 
I moisturized my ends tonight with Mane n tail, hot six and aloe vera juice. I noticed 4 broken strands all under an inch. It was probably from me pulling on my ends trying to distribute my leave in... I have to work on being patient with my hair. woosah
 
On Sunday after a henna treatment, I DC with AO White Camellia:love: with some ghee over the top.

My hair doesn't feel dry, just soft and strong. My hair seems to like the ghee.
 
I may have to join this! I got a trim two months ago and already my stylist is saying I have split ends and need another trim.

I was wondering if I should wait to cut them after I get a sew in or cut them this week before the sew in.
 
I'm terrible at updating in here. Still dealing my ends every night. Was using the Mizani supreme oil. Finished that, and now I'm using entwine butter cream hydrator.
 
DC on dry hair, overnight with AO White Camellia. I smoothed coconut oil on my ends, put in bantu knots and wrapped in cling film. I'll clay wash in the morning when I get up.

I'm going to dust my ends this weekend. I was hoping to make it 3 months but I think for now 8 weeks is my limit.

I'm going to keep it simple and clio the ends of my twist when I take them down.

I will just be patient and hope that as I get closer to SL I can extend my dusting a little bit more.

How often do you usually trim?
