The recommended period between trims is three months (Image: Shutterstock)Regardless of your race, hair texture or hair colour, nobody is exempted from split ends. You may be following all the correct hair rules and nourishing your hair with good quality products, but due to everyday haircare and environmental factors, the ends of our hair are still susceptible to damage. Trimming is supposed to slow down hair breakage because split ends climb up the hair shaft over time, resulting in the strand becoming fragile. Trimming your own hair at home may sound intimidating, but by following the right steps, you will save money and your precious hair. Trimming the hair in its kinky state may make you trim way more hair than you need to.
