While I know to trim every 12-16 weeks, I'd like to go longer if I feel like I have no splits.
The only problem is I can't tell if I do.
I know that up close, split ends are usually forked, or have a variety of other appearances that represent damaged ends (see chart), but mine are just sort of... bushy? They're not actually "split," but they point in every which way, and some have a slight curl to the ends.
'Nother reason I'm asking is because I'm not much of a person who focuses on it being 100% aesthetically pleasing. I kind of just throw it up into a protective style and go, so I didn't know if maybe my messy buns were causing it?
TL;DR (Too Long; Didn't Read) Can ends be split without actually being split? When do you know when to cut?
