I'd never before heard of a machine that removed split ends until one was used to trim my hair at a hair salon, and ever since, I've been looking high and low to get my hands on this intriguing gadget to shape up my hair at home. Understandably, it doesn’t remove every single split end - but it does significantly tidy the tips and help to keep it in a healthy condition. The Split Ender PRO is specially designed to trim the very ends of the hair by 1/8" (3mm) or 1/4” (6mm) depending on the length selected, while leaving the overall length of the hair strands untouched. AT HOME TOOL: The Split Ender PRO 2 (Revolutionary worldwide patented entry level ) by Talavera comes in a stunning Red and Black color.

This machine really is life-changing if you're looking to keep your hair looking fresh without losing inches at the salon. But, if you take your time, you separate your hair into manageable sections, and do multiple small passes, you’ll probably extend the period between salon visits by up to months. Split ends are making your hair look like a hot mess, but you don’t want to throw money out on yet another simple trim or try to DIY it with a pair of scissors, especially when you’re forced to stay home (like, say, in a pandemic). Because I brushed my hair beforehand, it looks a little fluffier than usual, but it's noticeably smoother and cleaner at the tips now as most of the split ends are now gone.It’s pretty bare-bones in terms of features, and this particular trimmer seems to be cutting only about 1/4″ of hair with each pass. Although the machine didn’t get every last split end, we would say between 60 to 80% of our split ends were removed, depending on the hair type.

For very curly or thick hair, it’s better to use thin sections of hair between half an inch to one inch so that the teeth don’t drag or tug the hair.The common denominator is, unless you trim your hair every month, all of us will experience some split ends. Quite simply, it trims stray hairs that have grown beyond your normal length - most likely damaged split ends - without removing from the body of your hair. The thing is, when it comes to cutting our hair, we tend to leave it for as long as possible – because A, haircuts are expensive, and B, unless our hair is short, longer length is goals.
