#SplitEnds #LongHair #HairJourney - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
There are a couple lists of products I said I’d link in the description. I had a small emergency come up this morning, so I’ll add those later today. ❤️
It's ok! Hope you are ok!
Sarah plzzz do the Chinese rice water hair growth recipe. Hope u read it🤞BTW loved the vid very informative ❤❤❤
Ok love the vid
Hope everything is okay!
This year seems like it had been very hard for you! you are in my prayers! i love you!
let all of us take a minute of silence to thank Sarah for her dedication to work through that book and sharing her knowledge with us🙏🏻
Awwww thank you!!! 🙏🏻💜✨
Minute of silence? Lmao she didn't fight in war with hair.
Minute of silence?
Why do you need to write something so stupid? Because it sound nice?
Amen
@@Roses6858 You obviously aren’t obsessed with hair and Sarah or you’d understand… 😉
How to keep ends from splitting
1. Get tapered hair cut. *okay I’m good on that one*
2. Use wide toothed brushes and combs. *I got some of those, won’t be a problem*
3. Avoid bleach and permanent dye. *I never did either of those in the first place, I’m good*
4. Avoid heat tools. *Dont use those in the first place so I’m good*
5. Be gentle and patient. *that’s my problem*
I'm confused about what a tapered hair cut is. I tried googling it and it was all pictures of really short hair. Can you say more about what you have? I have medium-long hair with pretty gentle layers in it. Is this tapered? Haha I'm so confused
@@KP-uo1gb It means that not all the hair is the same length
@@KP-uo1gb basically not a blunt straight across cut. They mean get something like a layered cut with a U-shape or V-shaped ends.
@@PS-fk5zv yes this is my hair, so is it good or i should get a straight cut(well i will not because my hair is long and i wont cut it😭
@@PS-fk5zv I have fine thin hair
What tapered cut should I get iam going to cut it short I have my hair a little bit below my shoulders iam starting my long hair journey again after cutting it
Finally someone who isn’t trying to dumb herself down to appear cute. Finally someone who is proud of using the correct grammar and using science to her advantage. My first subscription in a while. Keep it up!
What 😭
@@AD-cy4vj 😂😂😂
@@AD-cy4vj LOL
I agree! It seems when a women actually provides lots of information & gets into the science of things, people think she is better than everyone else & a know-it-all. It's sad. I think that's why too many women try to look cute and dumb it down.
@@brittianyistre I'm on the spectrum and always blurt random facts when something comes up that relates to the current conversation. My friend's and family hate it. They call me Dr. Google and never take anything I say seriously. I'm just seen as condescending and pretentious to them. When in my mind I believe I'm being helpful/caring and engaging in conversation.
I was traumatized when I learned that some people brush their hair from the top...I literally once had to explain a girl how to brush hair because her daughter (who was like 2 at the time) never let her brush her hair, but she would let me....yeah, she had been brushing her hair from the top, and the baby was feeling pain
My mom did that... With a plastic brush that had most all the little soft little tips to protect your scalp... So it was scraping my scalp to bruises. Every. Single. Day. And then she'd wonder why I would throw a fit every morning 🤦🏽♀️ that's also why when I got older, I cut my hair to a bob because I hated detangling it. Now I'm finally in a happy place with my long hair and it's less traumatizing for me to take a time, sit down and gently detangle everything...
Yup my mum did that and then wondered why I was traumatised about going to the hairdresser and she had to do it in my sleep. Even now that she’s in her sixties she yanks her hair with a hairbrush from the top of her head because “she doesn’t have time” to do it properly from the bottom and detangle it. She has the worst head of hair I’ve ever seen because of it
My mom kept my hair pixie short so it wasn't too bad. When I started to grow it and it got thick and heavy she stopped combing it and I had to take over. Starting at the bottom and then just brushing through once the tangles are out is just the most painless way ever
My mother had been doing that for years and always said I had a sensitive head. Now my sisters brush their hair top to bottom and you can just hear the hair breaking off. It looks so painful.
Hmm... I wonder if this is why I wouldn't let my mother comb my hair when I was young... lol. She has very thin wispy hair and keeps hers short, whereas mine is thick as a jungle. She had no idea...
Tips to prevent split ends
- Use conditioner.
- Avoid sunlight or use UV protection.
- Get a tapered haircut, not straight across.
- Use a comb/brush with widely spaced teeth/bristles.
- Avoid bleach and permanent dye.
- Avoid heat tools.
- Be gentle and patient.
saving this 4 later looll
This vid has me checking every hair strand that comes off of my head to see if it’s breakage or hairfall...oh boy 😅😅
Oh noooo! It's so tempting to do that, I totally get it. 😆
Definitely would like to hear how scientists classify hair.
Defo
Yes!! This is definitely high on my list because I was so fascinated to learn they have had a curl classification system a long time and nobody ever talks about it 🤯
As according to the popular curl type system I have 3 or 4 different curl types on my head I am definitely interested in knowing the science version.

@@barbarahayes7441 what?
Ten years of growth !!! Wow weeeee !!!😝👍
Wow!!! I can't believe it's been that long!!!!!!!!
She is so under rated like how
Everyone around me is tryna convince me to cut my hip length wavy hair and I'm so sick of hearing it, so finding you is like a breath of fresh air :) I love my long hair, love taking care of it and watching it grow and draping it around myself like a soft blanket, it's the most comforting thing ever lol. You and your hair are absolutely stunning 🥰🥰
They’re probably jealous of how beautiful and long your hair is.
I saw how hard you were working on this video and doing the research on your insta story. We love our Disney princesses and hardworking queens just as much!
Thank you SO much! 🙏🏻 I love that you follow along with the behind the scenes on IG stories 💜
@@SarahIngleOfficial hi love your channel ahhh so amazing 😉🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎🦎
"Be gentle and patient."
I used to yank a brush through my hair every morning and then wonder why on earth I had hair all over my shirt throughout the day. After watching your long hair advice videos, I finally stopped that. And now brushing my hair with patience has kinda become therapeutic. Thanks for taking the time to research and share this information!
At 6:00 the chameleon from Rapunzel appeared in the corner of the couch. She really is Rapunzel guys
Omg I saw it
I actually experience more breakage along my nape, ears and hairline wearing the silk bonnets - I move around *a lot* in my sleep so I've definitely switched over to Silk pillow cases and a loose upward braid. My baby fine nape hairs and edges are finally growing back! It took me ages to figure this out, so it's OK to not wear a sleep bonnet if your taking other precautions to avoid friction while sleeping! Cheers doll!
Me too! Love my silk pillowcase!
Haha this is why I finger detangle ☺️takes forever but my hair doesn’t break as much
Your hair must be so much healthier for it! ☺️👍🏻
It takes so long though :( I have curly 3A to 3 B and its down to the middle of my back
Same
I take hours to finger detangle but it’s so worth it also protective styles and confidence is key!
I've been doing that recently when I am doing something else and have free hands, so I do it a few times a day (not the whole hair cuz too dam long ⊙﹏⊙) but this helps A LOT! The moment you go to brush/comb your hair it's better
It's interesting that you didn't mention trimming or 'dusting' hair ends to prevent split ends travelling up. Is that a lie I've been believing too? 😂
Great question. I am curious too. I saw a video where a lady didn't trim or cut her hair in 2 years. She took good care of her hair and was very happy with her length and ends. Thinking about trying that.
im not sure but as an apostolic i dont cut my hair (-anymore, my hair is actually very short because the last time i cut it was above my shoulders at around end of may) and my split ends are not bad at all ! i expected a lot more of split ends than i have now especially since i straighten it about once a week for church at ~360° and ive got some crazy thick wavy hair lol
When I had split ends, I had the habit of pulling them apart to see how far up they go. They never went more than 3 cm
I looked for a detangler spray while watching this and the (affordable) one that came up had uv protection!
Great video! Pro tip: when using a paddle brush, FIRST brush holding your tool vertically (widens the bite so more hair slips through those now parallel teeth) Then hold your paddle brush horizontal like you demonstrated. The teeth will now be set in a serrated form to add tension. Great job on this video!
Loving these science hair videos! You can just tell that Sarah's doing her research and is very careful to not spread misinformation. For me the best part is how you deliver the information. It turns into an entertaining conversation from a friend rather than a regular science class.
Thank you so much! That's such a compliment!
It's amazing how strong hair can be when you don't use too much heat or chemicals. I remember when I had relaxed hair, I could easily take a strand and break it without pulling too hard. One day at work, I found a hair strand at one of the computers. The strand was long, dark, straight, non-afro textured hair and I tried pulling on it (I know I'm a weirdo) and it would not break. I had no idea how strong hair could be since I had been getting relaxers since I was 5 years old. Now I'm natural and my hair is so strong and hard to break.
As a small hair nerd myself I feel like I died and went to heaven when I discovered your channel 😂
I love how passionate you are about this stuff! Your energy makes other people want to care about there hair. (Like me) After just 1 mouth of using your tips and tricks my hair has been so healthy! Thank you Sarah!!! ❤️ I also have a video idea, you could do a video comparing different brushes and combs! That would be so fun!! Stay safe everyone!!!
Thank you so much! I’m so glad that the videos make you excited about caring for your hair! 💜 Love the brush and comb comparison idea!
I'm a science nerd, not into makeup or anything but subbed anyway because of the hair equation.
Oh my god you're the feminine nerd friend I always wanted to have but never found one :( let me know if you ever come to Greece for vacation
Yes for global nerd friends! Hopefully someday we can all travel freely again 😞
I think keeping strong hair with enough vitamins and protein will allow you to brush your hair while dry, cause brittle hair is more likely to suffer breaking brushing dry
omg this is the channel i've been waiting for for ages. Hair "science" is so full of misinformation from marketing and from people with more non-science-based hair experience so i'm so happy to find someone covering it in the way you are, basing it in science but making it more approachable for a layperson to understand from a practical-ish perspective!
I just found your channel today and am now marathoning a lot so maybe this has already been covered but among the many "trimming tips and hacks" videos out there, among all the "use sharp shears so you don't damage your ends while cutting" tips is the hair singeing "trend". I've got "trend" in quotes bc there's apparently some documentation about it being historical as well, but i can't find a single person take a scientific approach to it, just a lot of people going "this is scary" or "i tried it and the texture freaks me out so its obviously bad" or "i tried it and the result looks un-split to the naked eye so its obviously good". Have you ever come across a more rigorous look at that one?
also somehow knowing that bleach harms hair and also knowing that the sun "bleaches" things in a milder way, i still never put 2 and 2 together to think about UV protection to prevent hair damage, but now i have a new thing to learn about!
Thank you! I’m glad you found your way here.
I haven’t looked into the singeing trend yet. Logically, I have a hard time rationalizing how burning a strand of proteins could be anything but damaging, but I’d definitely want to look into it more before I gave any sort of opinion on it.
@@SarahIngleOfficial supposedly it "seals" the end of the hair so it doesn't let moisture in or out through the ends or expose the cortex to the elements, so the singed end is less prone to breakage going forward. on the one hand burning hair seems bad, on the other, that explanation doesn't sound insane? but i've given up on trusting my intuition on things like this :P if i had a microscope i'd be singeing my own hair to try it myself and see what it's actually doing but im a little broke for that lol
I’m studying to become a hairstylist and I love watching videos like these to see different types of point of views. On the part of brushing/combing, the best way to avoid too much damage and breakage on the hair, you HAVE to start brushing or combing from the ends and slowly going up. You start to slowly remove the knots that way. So imagine it being like a braid, when removing a braid you DO NOT start from the top, you obviously begin from the bottom exactly the same with our hair when you start combing from the bottom up you begin to untangle knots way more gently rather than forcing or pulling roughly on them.
I love how sun lightens my hair colour dramatically so I don't think I'll start to use uv protection... :"D
I have very thin hair and it basically consists of split "ends”😣
Me too😢
Wow Girl! You are amazing! I love hearing about hair breakage and split ends from you more than any other TH-camrs! I love how descriptive and attentive you are to the smallest details. Great advices, will definitely try some of it out!
These are my absolute favourite hair videos on youtube and i take down notes everytime i watch your videos. You're helping so many of us!!!!
Dude, thank you so much for teaching me how to proper brush my hair! I had no idea for all these years that it should be from bottom up. I feel like Im already losing much less hair to brushing each day because Im doing it right and very gentle now. Ive watched many hair videos in the past and no one else has mentioned that. Whoo!
TH-cam recommended your videos to me just yesterday and I'm binging on your content!!
I wonder what you think about burning split ends instead of cutting them.
Loepsie made a video on that topic.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and passion for hair 💜
All my life I've been looking for a video that explains the science of hair! This was reallyyyy helpful. Thanks!
I love you’re videos! I wish science based beauty information was more mainstream. Beauty bloggers should take a lesson from you. It’s great what you’re doing! Super informative! Thank you!
I will day from my experience with long straight fine hair, the brush that has the least snagging is my boar bristle brush. For me it’s a very forgiving brush because it’s has no ball at the end and is extremely flexible. I really ever snags my hair and it can’t get the big tangles (which I use a wide comb for). Plus boar bristle are the best at distributor your hair oils.
I've always had sun-damaged curls, and I never knew there was a product to protect from that! I snatched up the sun bum anti-frizz uv protection spray while watching this video. Can't wait to see the difference at the end of this summer.
I just love you so much and I can't wait until your channel blows up, there's nobody out there on TH-cam like you about hair and I love it!!
I would love to know how scientists categorize curly hair! Yes please! I want to understand all the nerdy stuff about every type of hair. Another video idea if you're up for it is about hair types of people who are mixed (half black half white, half Asian half white, blasian, etc)
Girl, I'm so in love with your channel. I've been following some friends advice on how to grow my hair, but I just kept getting more and more broken hair. After watching your video, I believe tha main reason for this is because all of them told me to brush my hair wet, in the shower. Well, now I know why I have more split ends than ever. Thanks for teaching us. I'm changing my hair routine TODAY.
I never would have thought the sun could be so damaging to hair! We've heard so much about sun damaging skin but not hair.
OMG your videos are so well created!!!! you must put so much effort into your research and editing! you're one of my favourite youtubers I've found recently, instant sub!!!!
Thanks for the advice. I really look up to you and trust what you say when it comes to hair growth!
These videos are so good! I really love hearing scientific hair care tips because internet is so full of nonsense.
Definitely would love to see the curl type classification info and more about CGM
i absolutely love your videos 💗 i’m surprised you don’t have a few million subs! your very kind and likable.💛💛💛
I just want to thanks you SO much for reading ALL of that to make videos explaining the content to us... like, I know what is like to read THAT much, and I love my hair, but I'm not sure I would read all that just to be able to grow it longer, anyway I'm trying to say thank you sooooo much, It's really amazing that you're not just giving 'tips' of what you've heard, but you have scientific based information!
This is one of the more helpful hair videos. Thanks for doing your research and presenting it in such a digestible way.
Would love to hear your thoughts on the curly girl method. Since I've started looking into the science of haircare I've just seen seen alot of flaws in the curly girl philosophy, and I have difficulty finding the logic of that entire method. Great video 👍
Hello I'm a curly girl 😄
The curly girl method is great for people trying to revive their curls after a long time. Plopping is the best! But some of it is weird rules I don't follow
What's confusing for me is that my hair is supposed to look better with the curly girl method and its been 2 years of finding routines and tweaking them and even though my hair softer and healthier, it's still this frizzy wavy/curly mess.
I think I just need to accept that I have coarse and weirdly textured hair that doesn't fit in with curly hair or straight hair types. I'm mixed race so I guess it makes sense that even my hair is confused 😂😂
My hair goes from like 1C, 2A to 2B, 2C, 3A, different strands have different curl patterns, its just all over the place lmao.
Thank you for showing me the different split types! I thought I was the only person in the world getting split not at ends and splits in the middle.
Thank you SO SO much for not only telling me how to avoid it, but also how it happens. It was really interesting to hear how easily the cmc hair-glue (lol) can get destroyed and now I know how to prevent it. Definitely following after this awesome vid 💕
Thank you for your content 😩❤️ We need more truth in this world instead of all the lies
For everyone who wants long healthy hair, but dyes it with permanent color: Use the permanent color only to touch up the roots and use semi permanent for the rest.
I feel like combing my hair while watching this
I love your videos! I am studying to become a tricotherapist and I can say you really show accurate facts... and not every hair channel does that! I would love to chat about hair with you 😂 it is also a passion of mine. Love from Chile 🇨🇱
Currently dealing with split ends and dandruff and hair fall 😭 thanks for information BTW😍
UV protection in hair has been a basic for me for a long time. Like 5 years. BTW thank you for the PH level tip. This has changed my hair so positively.
Wow ur like a hair scientist you deserve more!
yess brushing from the bottom first helps so much ! when my ends are really tangled I hold a small section of hair a few inches from the bottom, but the key is to hold that section higher up or closer to your head so it's not pulled tight. that way if a tangle is hard to get out you aren't subjecting the entire section of your hair, tip to root, to that force. just the small section you're working on.
Omg I'd LOVE to see you do a curly girl method video! I'm a 2nd year hairdressing student in the UK and I just found you and now I'm *obsessed*. Need that book!
I have dry-wavy hair and for some reason I can only brush it while it's wet. After I shower it's so slippery and thanks to the conditioner I can detangle it easily with almost no breakage. Whevener I try to brush it when it's dry it's a nighmare and I end up with loads of broken hair all over the place
Can you tell me which conditioner did you use please???
@@manarbook2053 Le petite Marseillais coconut conditioner (I don't rinse out completely) and herbal essences aloe and mango shampoo. Plus a few drops of almond oil as a leave-in. Right now I'm not using sulfates and silicones. If you like silicones Pantene repair and protect works nice
@@eva_k thank you so much, I'll try it.
I’m exactly the same way, but after a shower I’ll brush my hair damp, then apply oil after detangling (so that I can better control keeping the oil off my scalp and giving my hair a greasy appearance). Throughout the next non-wash days oil will migrate upwards as I brush my hair every day, but doing it that way helps space out time between washes
Please do more! 😭 I always wait for them.
I use the “it’s a 10” for blondes leave in spray. It has uv protection plus many other great things for your hair. And it smells so good too.
Great work Sarah! I aprec8 your science based info delivered in a super fun way! Love this vid! I subscribed! Take care, and Be well pretty lady!
Ur enthusiasm is infectious,love u for that😘
This video made me go back and check to make sure my leave in’s have UV protection. I used Verb Curl leave in which markets that it has UV protection and my research found the protection to be from sunflower seed EXTRACT! I also found that both my leave in and curl cream have ethylhexyl cinnamate which is octinoxate, a sunscreen! They usually are not labeled separately on the list so it tough to look up if there is sunscreen ingredients in your conditioners. The best thing to do is to shoot for at least on conditioner that has UV and color protection advertised for now. Awesome video! Love the hair science with no BS
Currently growing out my hair after a regrettable haircut 😬 Needed this video 😂😂
I’m a cosmetologist and I approve, if you want hair advice I recommend her over brad mondo!

I’m so happy I found this TH-cam channel! Hands down one of my new favs!!!✨
Thank you!! 🙏🏻💜
Informative and enjoyable well done! Thank you queen ❤❤
So helpful thanks you so much
thanks for citing sources!
I love your videos so much I'm trying to grow out my hair and I love the videos you make about hair science!
After going through 3 university exams about electromagnetism and being straight up terrorized about how UV rays interact with our bodies I can't believe I never thought about protecting my hair from sunlight. I will definitely do that from now on
You know what I thought about, and I know someone probably thought about it and mentioned it already, is that a tapered haircut, which should result with less split ends, is actually exposing the under layers to more UV damage. I wonder, therefore, if the UV causes more damage or if the force of brushing it causes more damage. Just an interesting thought.
Found you just now and subscribed too! Love how passionately you talk!! Much love from India💖
Thank you for the advice I am new here.And for surching how to grow hair.If I learn something new I am going to subscribe.
Super duper useful. Thank you, Sarah!
I’m so glad I found your channel! What do you think of olaplex for damaged hair?
I love the wetbrush, soft flexible bristles, and have noticed much less breakage since using it (it’s been years).
Girl! You should have been The Queen Actress in Hollywood. You are so beautiful, funny and lively, have you tried sending them your videos?
Very interesting! I’d love more of these kind of videos!!
Regarding uv protection, I don’t use any on my hair because I have read somewhere that uv filters doesn’t actually work on hair properly! Can’t remember the source unfortunately, but was there anything written about this in this hair book you mentioned?
Subscribed!! Thank you for all your research and dedication! Side note, I love your name! 😄
Hi Sarah! I love your vids so much! Very informative. My dream is to have long healthy hair like yours! I'm following all the steps in your grow long hair guide, but I was also wondering if the rice water trick that people seem to love was good for your hair. Is it damaging? Love you!
I just watched this video again!!! Sooooo helpful!!! You are the best!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for all your helpful information 💜💜 Keep going
This content is Gold!
Never knew a blunt haircut would be more prone to breakage. I think I am going for a layered cut next time :) Thanks for the video!
Very well done. I did learn something today. Split ends. Thank you Miss.
This was a great video idea! Thanks!!!
of all videos about this topic yours ROCKS!!!
Split ends are my Everest. I haven’t coloured my hair in years and never use heat tools but I’m always plagued by split ends. My hair is very fine and straight and I live in a very dry climate with very cold winters. Even with breakage I’ve managed to get waist length hair, but by the time it gets to that point it usually needs a good several inches hacked off to look healthy. I’m trying to get into a more regular trimming schedule (once every 3 months as opposed to once every, gulp, 6-12 months) but I have a feeling my very long hair days are behind me.
you mentioned living in a dry climate and having "very long hair days" behind you. Is some of your hair grey? Do you live in a very sunny place? Fine hair is more quickly compromised by sunlight. Maybe wearing a hat whenever you go out and keeping your hair in braids for as much as you can would be good. Also dusting the hair to catch any splits that are in the midshafts. If the hair is dark, you could use henna to thicken the hair and give it more strength. Curly Proverbs and HennaSooq are good resources for how to use henna. these are just some ideas.
I remmeber when i was 9 i had tangles EVERY WEEK. im not even joking it was SO BAD LIKE A BIRDS NEST EVERYDAY! just feeling my hair made me feel grossed out. And since my hair was up to my thigh/leg, it was very hard to keep it untangled. So we cut it up to my shoulders because i just COULDNT take care of my hair anymore, and my moms hands got red and started bleeding from taking out MY KNOUGHTS. thats how bad it was. Now that its short, it doesnt get tangled easily and is manageable. I also have more hair oils like bioten and collagen oils, leave in conditinor, and i use regular conditioner in the shower now! I also sleep o a silk pillow case and put my hair in a braid before sleeped. I learned that all from you, you literly SAVED my hair because without you, i wouldve never thought of how to fix my hair without cutting it. Now my hair is growing back to my legs slowly, and i love it. Thank you for all your hard work and research!
Your videos are great😄 thank you for your advice and I was wondering if you could make a video about what hair products such as shampoo and conditioner are good for healthy hair
Hi Sarah, I hope your emergency wasn't to bad. This is my new favorite channel! If you get the chance could please put a link about that Wooden brush, I can't seem to find it anywhere 😊 Thank you!
