Gen Z’s Hair Trend – hair Split Down the Middle

Gen Z is leading the trend toward middle parts in their hairstyles. While this look may appear sleek and chic, consider your symmetry and face shape before committing to this hair trend.

Mid-shaft Split

Mid-shaft splits often result from over-manipulation and excessive use of hair products, and must be addressed quickly for their wellbeing. They resemble feather splits in appearance and must be treated immediately by trimming.

Taper Split

Chemical damage usually causes this type of split to appear early and can often be repaired quickly through regular trims. It often seems tapered, with damage evident on each hair strand’s tip and cuticle visible at its end.

Standard or Traditional Split (Long Split)

The standard or traditional split occurs when cortical cells separate in a precise spot yet remain connected at other sites. To help avoid this type of split, it’s essential to regularly use natural oils and moisturizing hair masks and use conditioner regularly in your hair care routine. This will nourish and strengthen your tresses for maximum hydration, while protective hair treatments will provide additional moisture between wash days.

Thickened Split

Thickened splits typically occur due to heat damage, over-processing with dye or perm, frequent brushing, and heat styling tools. You can avoid this type of split by regularly changing your styling routine, doing DIY hair masks, using deep conditioners, or oiling your locks regularly.

Tree Split

Splits resulting from branch breaks often extend from several inches to several feet long, creating cracks in the trunk that eventually grow outward. Such trunk splits can be particularly harmful to trees as they make an area of weakness in their boxes, potentially leading to cracks developing across its entirety and eventually leading to its complete breakdown. Minor splits on branches still connected to unharmed units can usually heal independently – much like a paper cut would. More severe injuries, however, such as splits in larger branches or the trunk, may require stitches and professional help; consult a professional for assessment and guidance.

Double Split

The Double Split watch is an engineering marvel. Its signature lug width stepped case construction, and engineering-inspired design makes it stand out in any crowd. The watch weighs 200 grams without a bracelet and features the world’s first double rattrapante chronograph. Caliber L001.1, the watch’s movement, is a complex masterpiece that requires intricate mechanisms. It also includes a power reserve indicator, a trademark Tachymeter Scale, and gold Roman Numerals for an exceptional experience.
