Super Healthy Ends Challenge.

I want in on this challenge I just did the BC and I want to do everything I can to retain length. This will be a great challenge because I've never paid that much attention to my ends like I really need to.
 
Please add me! I really need help in retaining healthy ends. I will use protective styling (buns for now), castor oil (daily) and I am also thinking about using aloe vera. :help:

I put some shea butter on my ends last night; my hair lapped it up. I also did a check for split ends - but all is looking okay on that front. I have never been without split ends for such a prolonged period. I got my last trim in December and I normally have a few by the time I get around to trim. The consistent DC's must be paying off.
 
I plan to straighten on Friday and I will get my mom to take pics when I visit my parents on Saturday. I hope it works because I had her take pics two weeks ago and my pictures weren't uploading to my computer.
 
Count me in. I was planning on buying some coconut oil tommorow and the shea butter I ordered should be in tommorow.
 
just checking in...

i'm making myself be consistent in roller setting twice a week instead of air drying. i tried air drying for a week or so and while it was great to not have to spend an hour setting my hair, i had so much shedding, and my hair felt really really dry after the first day.

i'm hoping if i stick to roller setting and PS styles, my ends will benefit.
 
Can i join this challenge?? I am currently on week 7 of my first 16 week stretch i plan on maintaining super healty ends that way there will be no need to trim when i get my touch up. So far so good. I have been making it a point to moisturise twice a day and seal my ends as well. I have been sealing with jojoba oil, cocasta shakaki oil (hair veda), baggy cream (hair veda), and i recently bought coconut oil, (they all work great but it think coconut oil is the best and jojoba a close second).
 
Question for those with multiple textures... does your hair's health vary by texture? I have thin, in-between and thick strands all mixed together all over my head. The thick strands tend to be wiry and coarse, and they are the most damaged ones. The thin strands have almost no split ends, the medium strands have some that are mostly right at the very tips. But every thick strand seems to be damaged, with several inches of elaborate multiple splits! :perplexed

I have been moisturizing and sealing the ends much more regularly, but I need to stop constantly inspecting my ends so that I can snip off the splits - the more I look, the more I seem to find. :(

After my touch up on Tuesday I'm going to let my stylist trim my hair which means I probably won't be BSL anymore but that' s ok. I'm going to instead of cross wrapping my hair. Moisturize and seal my ends and put my hair into larger pincurls. Since my ends rub against my back I'm going to keep my hair up. Continue rollersetting also. That's all I have for now.

I'm back on my hair again so I need to come up with another regime to follow also.
 
I went to school with a girl who used to do this cute pincurl style...I need to learn how to do that...does anyone have any ideas??
 
I will join this challenge. I always use oil on my ends however what are people using as moisture when the hair is already dry? Please help?

I got a trim with my last relaxer and incoroprated more protein in my regimen. That solved all of my problems. No more dry hair. My hair hold moisture especially my ends. I'm really patient with my hair and wearing PS.

Hey there,

I just came back from getting a light dusting at the Regis salon to give myself a good starting point. I am going to keep my ends moisturized and seal with oil daily. Other than just keeping it simple(low manipulation, no heat, protective styling, & moisturizing/sealing) I do not plan on doing anything extra to my ends.
