Long hair is something that a number of people are fond of. But a number of people also dread for the fact that it needs a lot of care and attention. Moreover, having long hair also means to deal with split ends which are hard to get rid of. The only solution to repair is to chop them off. But thankfully there are ways that can help to deal with these unwanted and unpleasant looking split ends at the comfort of your home.

You just need to mash a cup of ripe papaya fruit and add a teaspoon of curd and a teaspoon of almond oil. Miss well and apply it to the hair from root to tips. Let it rest for nearly two hours and rinse off with room temperature water.
2. Coconut milk – This is a staple for the South Asian cuisines but also works as a great nourishment for the hair. It contains plenty of vitamin E that helps to reduce the frizz in the hair.
