Grab one strand of hair. Just one. Now, gently pull it. Does it snap immediately, like a grumpy twig? That’s dryness. Healthy hair stretches a little before bouncing back, like a mini rubber band.
If it breaks before you even finish pulling, your hair is basically sending you a text: “BRB, crumbling.” Not a good look. Also, don’t do this test on someone else. That’s weird.
The “Split End Situation”
Okay, look at your ends. I mean really look. Are they splitting into tiny, angry little forks? Like a microscopic fork army planning a rebellion? That’s dry hair’s calling card.
Split ends don’t lie. They’re the gossipy friends who tell everyone your secrets. If you see more than three on one strand? Girl, you are dry. Time for a trim and some deep conditioning—stat.
