Split ends

Introduction Some young girls or middle-aged women, when their hair grows to a certain extent, there will be bifurcation in the hair part, commonly known as "hair flowering", medically known as "hair longitudinal cracking", some called " Feather-like fragility." Hair blossoming makes the hair of the original light unkempt, affecting beauty.

Cause

The good hair is "flowering" for the cockroaches? Originally, the reason why the hair looks shiny and beautiful, the hair is like lacquer, because the sebaceous glands that secrete the hair are mostly born with the hair follicles, often secreting sebum through the catheter into the hair follicle. The oil then reaches the scalp along the hair shaft, which moisturizes and protects the hair from bifurcation. When the hair is too long, or the health condition is not good, the oil secretion will be disordered or can not be delivered to the hair shaft, and the hair will naturally "flower".
