I'm hoping someone can help me with this. I know a girl who is 29 with long hair to the middle of her back. Her hair is really thick, but lately it has not only started thinning out, but she can't seem to stop the dead ends. She's never had dead ends before this year. She has stopped using gels & hair sprays. She brushes her hair from the ends up, after shampooing, she never uses rubber bands, she is trying everything she can think of to stop these dead ends. Does anyone have tips, tricks, or makes something that can stop these dead ends? I told her I would ask the pros on this site because I have no idea what she should do. Thanks for any help you can give her!
