I'm not sure it counts as split ends, but it definitely goes in the "wear&tear" category: when you stress your hair too much by constantly keeping it in a ponytail, strands from the nape start breaking off at the level where the scrunchie rubs against the hair, and then you have these ugly strands hanging on your neck. I don't know if there's a particular name for this, but it's annoying and I was wondering if you had any ideas about how to stop this and aid those strands to grow back again (aside from the obvious not putting my hair in ponytails all the time, which I'm trying so hard to un-learn).<br /><br />And since I haven't properly introduced myself, I just wanted to say hi! and that I really like your blog and site. I stumbled over them yesterday while looking for a nice updo for an upcoming wedding I'm attending, and can't stop reading ever since. I really like the way you portray long hair as a long-term commitment, and think it's inspiring to find out that gosh, there is beauty and feminity in life over 30 too, unlike what stylists and lifestyle gurus would like us to think (I'm 20 right now and have been pondering upon this for quite a while). Cheers to you, and I hope you'll be healthy and motivated to write some more about hair :)blueblackhuskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14039423570074492924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3634196082642739025.post-88643174677966240262010-07-09T07:28:16.255-04:002010-07-09T07:28:16.255-04:00Wish I could comment on all the hair tips; nothing...Wish I could comment on all the hair tips; nothing seems to matter when it comes to my own hair.
