In addition to showing you how to fix dry ends with the best products and tips, here’s your complete guide to repairing and rejuvenating your hair. Read on to find everything you need to restore your hair to its original state.

What causes dry hair ends?

Well-moisturized hair looks and feels shiny, bouncy, and has good movement. Dry hair lacks moisture, looks dull, brittle, and tangled, with split ends, flyaways, and breakage. Since you’re here, you’ve probably experienced the latter and wondered, “Why are the ends of my hair so dry?” Here are some of the most common causes of dry ends.

Chemical Treatments : Harmful chemicals in hair dyes, bleaches, perms, and straightening products can be very damaging to your hair, especially if you overuse them.

Heat styling : One of the main causes of dry and split ends is heat from hot styling tools, which strips the hair of moisture.

Washing your hair too often : Washing your hair too often can also strip away natural oils, leaving your hair and ends dry.

Using the wrong products : Using hair care products that are not suitable for your hair type or worse, contain harmful toxins can also cause dry hair ends.

Aging : As you age, the amount of natural oils in your hair decreases and age-related hormonal changes can also lead to dry ends.

Environmental conditions : Too much exposure to sunlight, extremely hot or cold weather, and low humidity can all cause hair and split ends to become dry.

Health problems : Eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa, as well as hormone problems such as hypoparathyroidism and hypothyroidism, can also lead to dry hair.

Cut those stubborn habits

Your home hair care routine can also cause dry ends. This can include washing your hair too often, using harsh shampoos, blow-drying your hair too often, heat damage from straighteners or curling irons, and harsh chemicals like dyes, perms, and relaxers. Avoid over-drying your hair, frequent hair coloring, heat styling, daily shampooing, and rough towel drying as these can cause dry ends.

Practice good habits to restore dry and damaged hair ends.

When it comes to dealing with dry hair, it's all about repairing damage. Start by improving your overall hair health and eliminating bad hair habits. Let's take a closer look below.

Improve hair health

The most important thing you can do to keep your hair healthy is to eat a balanced diet and stay hydrated. Getting the right nutrients every day is the way to keep your hair strong and shiny. Make sure you get plenty of omega-3s and antioxidants, as well as vitamins A, E, and D; iron; healthy fats; carbohydrates; and protein. These, along with drinking plenty of water, are especially important for hair health.

Hair care

Regular hair care and regular check-ups can help prevent or reduce dry, damaged hair. Make sure you follow a routine that suits your hair type, using high-quality, sulfate-free moisturizing products. Here are our top tips for repairing dry, split ends.

Trim your hair regularly : It may seem counterintuitive, but regular trims help keep your hair healthy. When split ends form at the ends, they continue to split along the length of the hair. Therefore, trimming your ends before they form is essential. A good rule of thumb is to trim your hair every two to three months to avoid dry ends.

Wash less often : Washing your hair too often strips it of the natural oils it needs to maintain shine and softness. Especially if the ends of your hair are dry, try to wash your hair as often as possible. When using shampoo, avoid formulas that contain sulfates as they will strip more moisture from your hair. In particular, use Nubea Sustenia Shampoo - Damaged Hair . Nourishing and repairing shampoo for damaged hair with Essential Oils. Gently cleanses and repairs hair fibers providing nutrients and protection.

Never skip conditioner/treatment : After every shampoo, remember to use conditioner/treatment. Conditioner/treatment forms a protective layer on the hair after shampoo has opened it up. Therefore, skipping conditioner/treatment will make a big difference in how your hair looks and feels after washing. For optimal results, use the same Nubea Sustenia - Damaged Hair conditioner. Nourishing and repairing hair conditioner with essential oils. Restores and moisturizes damaged hair, bringing new life and vitality.

Use quality styling tools . Investing in quality styling tools is essential to maintaining the health of your hair. These tools are designed with technology and materials that distribute heat evenly and reduce damage to your hair. They also have adjustable heat settings, but you should never turn them up to maximum to avoid burning your hair.

Simple home solutions

Additionally, there are some simple home remedies you can use to help restore your dry, damaged hair. Things like sleeping on a silk or satin pillowcase, or wrapping your hair in a silk scarf before bed, can help prevent breakage and split ends while you sleep. Controlling the temperature your hair is exposed to, such as avoiding hot showers, lowering the temperature of your styling tools, and prepping with a heat protectant, can also help reduce dryness. Finally, adding hair-friendly ingredients like apple cider vinegar and coconut oil to your routine is a great way to help your dry hair regain its shine.
