How to Use Hair Oil for Split Ends | Quimey Natural Hair Oil

Split ends are a common sign of dry, damaged hair—and once they show up, they can make your hair look frizzy, dull, and hard to manage. While the only permanent solution is a trim, using the right hair oil for split ends can deeply nourish your hair, prevent further damage, and smooth your ends in the meantime.

Why Do Split Ends Happen?

Split ends usually appear when the outer layer of your hair (the cuticle) becomes worn down. This can happen from:

  • Heat styling (hello straighteners and blow dryers)

  • Harsh shampoos

  • Color treatments

  • Sun exposure

  • Brushing too roughly

If you’ve got curls or textured hair, you're even more prone to split ends. That’s because natural oils from your scalp struggle to reach the ends of coily strands. The result? Dry, brittle ends that break off before your hair can grow long and strong.

Can Hair Oil Help With Split Ends?

Yes—but here’s the truth: no oil can glue split ends back together. What the right oil can do is nourish dry, fragile strands, reduce breakage, and protect the ends from further damage.

At Quimey, our oil blend is packed with nutrients that go deep—not just coat the surface. Here's what’s inside:

  • Baobab Oil – adds deep moisture and protects from heat

  • Jojoba Oil – mimics your scalp’s natural oils to restore balance

  • Moringa Oil – rich in antioxidants to strengthen hair and improve elasticity

This combination is ideal for curly, dry, or damaged hair that craves hydration and strength.

How to Use Hair Oil for Split Ends: Step-by-Step

1. Start with Clean, Damp Hair

Wash your hair with a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo. Then, towel-dry it gently with a microfiber towel or soft cotton T-shirt.

2. Warm the Oil in Your Hands

Apply 2–4 drops of Quimey Oil to your palms and rub them together to warm the oil.

3. Focus on the Ends

Smooth the oil into the last 2–4 inches of your hair, focusing on dry or frayed areas. Avoid applying too much to your roots unless you’re doing a scalp treatment.

4. Leave It In or Use as a Night Treatment

  • Daily: Use a small amount as a leave-in on damp or dry ends.

  • Deep Treatment: Apply more generously, braid your hair, and leave it on overnight. Rinse or co-wash in the morning.

5. Repeat 2–3 Times a Week

Consistency is everything. Over time, your ends will feel softer, stronger, and look visibly healthier.

Extra Tips to Prevent Split Ends

  • Get regular trims every 8–10 weeks

  • Sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase

  • Avoid brushing your hair when wet

  • Use a heat protectant when styling

  • Avoid tight hairstyles that strain your ends
