When you see a split hair.....trimming it yourself?

[PhonyBaloney500]

Hey all! I'm sorta new (well new subscription wise /images/graemlins/clap.gif )

If I see a few split hairs or little individual knots, should I go ahead and cut it myself? I got a trim recently but I still see some and it's driving me nuts--should I just snip it myself before it makes things worst?

That's what I do.

I do the same. IF I leave it alone it will become a split hair all the way up the hair shaft. I clip and have a shorter hair as opposed to a missing hair allthogher.

 

[candibaby]

yes. please believe i am not afraid to whip the shears out of my cosmetology kit and snip it off if need be.

 

[inthepink]

Yes, I used to always do that when I was relaxed. I hate split ends.

 

[prettykinks]

Yes I do that myself. When I put plaits or twists in my hair I will trim alittle off each end.

Yep, just snip them yourself. I do this too. If I see it, I snip it.

 

[sengschick]

I cut them and them alone. Sometimes I leave the little knots if they are further up the shaft than I am prepared to snip. But please make sure you use shears.

Thanks for the advice! I bought CONAIR brand scissors! I had fun doing that today--found about 15-20 of them. :-/

Welcome Phony /images/graemlins/wave.gif

I agree with everyone. I just wanted to add to make sure that you use a decent pair of hair scissors. Anything other than hair scissors will be too dull, which will eventually lead to more breakage. You can get a decent pair from any BBS for about $9.
