Split Ends, Dryness, or Breakage? How to Know What Your Hair Needs

We all want healthy, beautiful hair — but when things start to go wrong, it’s not always easy to know why. Are you dealing with dry strands, split ends, or breakage? And more importantly, what should you do about it?

At Hair Pro UK in Bexhill-on-Sea, we help clients understand their hair’s condition and recommend tailored treatments, both in-salon and at home. As an official reseller of Matrix professional haircare, we’re here to guide you toward the right solutions for your specific hair needs.

Split Ends: The Telltale Signs

What it looks like: Fraying tips, rough texture at the ends, and a “feathered” or wispy appearance.

What causes it: Heat styling, harsh brushing, environmental damage, or simply waiting too long between trims.

What your hair needs:
✂ Regular trims — even just a light dusting every 6–8 weeks keeps ends tidy.
💧 Matrix Instacure Shampoo & Conditioner — designed to reduce breakage and help maintain longer, stronger hair, making it perfect for those prone to splitting.
💆‍♀️ In-salon conditioning treatments — we can recommend targeted treatments during your next appointment.

Dryness: When Your Hair Feels Parched

What it looks like: Dull, rough texture; frizz; lack of shine; brittle feel when you run your fingers through.

What causes it: Over-washing, heat damage, chemical treatments, or simply the natural texture of your hair.

What your hair needs:
💦 Deep hydration — try Matrix Total Results Moisture Me Rich Shampoo & Conditioner, which restores softness and manageability.
🛡 Leave-in treatments — we recommend Matrix Miracle Creator Multi-Tasking Hair Treatment, which nourishes and protects.
🌿 Hydrating masks — a weekly moisture mask can make all the difference, and we’re happy to suggest the best option for your hair type.

Breakage: Hair That Snaps

What it looks like: Short, uneven pieces throughout the hair, especially near the crown or hairline; excessive shedding when brushing.

What causes it: Over-processing, aggressive styling, or using the wrong brushes or elastics.

What your hair needs:
💪 Strengthening care — we love Matrix Food for Soft Shampoo & Conditioner, designed to reduce breakage and strengthen fragile hair.
🚫 Heat protection — never style without a protective product like Matrix Iron Smoother or Miracle Creator.
