I noticed that when I look at my hair ends in direct sunlight I see they have these white dots on the very ends of my hair. Are these split ends? I also see them right after I cut my hair.
Anyone know?

I've heard that this can be split ends, and I also experienced this when I had heat damaged hair some years ago after trying to press my hair with a hot comb.
About splits, did you cut your hair yourself? If you did, were you sure that the shears were sharp enough? Using shears that are not sharp enough can cause hair to fray.
It's called Trichorrhexis nodosa. I was actually just writing up and article on my blog about this and is typically as a result of heat usage.
I havent used heat in several months and since then I have trimmed off 5+ inches of hair. Looks like I'll have to go out and buy higher quality shears. Until then I'll just keep my ends moisturized and just deal with it. Thanks.
