Prevention of split ends is key.
First, don't wash your everyday. If you can, only wash with shampoo a maximum of 2 times per week. My washing schedule is usually Saturdays and Wednesdays. Also, when you use shampoo, make sure you are only massaging it into the scalp. Shampoo strips the natural oils in your hair and if you strip the oils from the ends your losing all that good hair nutrients that your ends desperately need!
Do not use heat. Let your hair dry naturally. Only use a straightener or curling iron on special occasions. There are a million no heat hair tutorials on Youtube that you can use if you need to style your hair. I never use a brush on wet hair and use a comb to detangle. When my hair is dry I use a wooden brush. The wood bristles soaks up the oils and when you brush through, it evenly distributes your hair's natural oils to the ends of your hair.
My most important piece of advice is doing hot oil scalp massage treatments biweekly. Oils have SAVED my hair! I typically use organic unrefined cold pressed (can be found at your local health food store and some grocery stores) coconut oil. I let it melt by sitting it under a lamp or by the heater. I don't recommend using a microwave to melt it, I read somewhere that it changes the makeup of the coconut oil. I start off by applying it all over my scalp and massaging it in for about 5-10 minutes. I apply the rest to the ends and stick my hair in a bun for the remainder of the day or overnight. You will need to shampoo this out, but again, only shampoo the roots. When the shampoo travels down your hair it will cleanse the ends. I like to switch up my oils or even mix them. So far, I've found the most results from using coconut, argon, and macadamia nut oils.
Once every 2-3 months, I will go in and trim my own hair. I cut my own hair due to EVERY SINGLE stylist not understanding what a trim is. A trim isn't 3-4 inches... so I learned how to trim my own hair. I only snip the tinniest amount of hair or snip a split end when I see one.
I hope this information helps. I went from hair past my breasts, to a platinum blonde (I'm naturally a dark brown). My hair was so damaged that I had to cut over 8" off. Two years later, I went blonde again and had to cut off another 5". The last year I went from a chin length bob to past shoulder length hair. I will never again go blonde, it was fun, but it damaged my hair BAD. Unfortunately, genetics has given me the gift of premature grays... so I do have to color every 6 weeks, but I use a semi-permanent hair color and only do the roots.
These methods are tried and true! Good luck! Long hair is like having a baby. You have to care, nurture and love your hair. It's a lot of upkeep, but it's totally worth it.
EDIT: I forgot to mention one more thing. Swap out your conditioner for a deep conditioning mask bi-weekly or once a week. This one is my holy grail
These are two products I'm currently loving

Careful with this last one, the reviews are saying its a fake but I'm sure you can find this products in drugstores. I've seen it in target and cvs.
Hey!
I have super long curly hair and I am constantly battling the dry ends.
Honestly the best things for me are olive oil (literally, straight olive oil... all night) and this macadamia oil mask. Also I use the Generic conditioning balm from sally's. Super affordable, works wonders.
So this might be news to everyone, but I color/bleach my hair (say whaaaa?!) every 4ish weeks. I've been keeping it up since December of last year and a month or so ago it felt so straw-like and dry from all the damage. I was considering giving it a break so it didn't all fall off my head. UNTIL, on a whim, I bought the travel size version of this leave-in cream. After a week, it felt like it was doing something but that could have been me wishing and wanting it. I decided to buy this deep repair masque in the same line to maybe help the hair even more. OMG, almost a month later and my hair feels the closest to non-damaged hair as it ever has before. I mean it's still drier than what was typical for me, but pretty sure my hair is much happier with me now! :D
My hair is super curly and thick too!
I wash it twice a week so it doesn't dry up like crazy..I use a deep conditioner so it moisturizes them enough (this is available in pharmacies/most supermarkets in Dubai).
But yeah, nothing helps when its this humid and hot, I end up just straightening it at home so I don't deal with it :/
You should try avoiding shampoos that have sulfates/parabens in it, they're very drying for curly hair.
This hair mask would help everyone's hair be silky soft!!
