Hi

Im wanting to grow my hair to below shoulder/middle of back length, this means that im trying not to go the the hairdressers except when I get split ends. Here is the catch - I have no idea what a split end looks like! I last went to the hairdressers in september and I really don't want to go again till febuary at the earliest but I need to know when I have split ends because then I will have to go to the hairdressers whether I want to or not. Help!!

I get all of those

AdriaCroft, if you don't know what a split end looks like, then you probably don't have any. They're ridiculously easy to spot.

Thats a great chart!! Heres what they look like magnified (plus some frayed cuticles)
