CV may have caused breakage :(

**GabrielleRose** · July 29th, 2011, 01:16 AM

Earlier at the store today I took a look at my boyfriend's luscious locks and noticed alot of splits! Don't get me wrong, I've seen a few splits here and there but never like this. He had splits so far up and he has very long hair. He takes pretty good care of it and he said that he's noticed the splits with the CV. Poor ba
by!
So sorry for the font color, please forgive me.

What's CV? Chagrin Valley? Cider Vinegar? I'm lost

Also, the bright blue doesn't stand out so well against the forum background, almost impossible to read without highlighting the text.

I tried to read your post, but it was too blue! Sorry!

Help! Serious eye damage on the iPad.

I'd really like to read your post but I can't due to the light colored font you used. It would be very helpful if you would you consider using the standard font in black.

Maybe he needs a different conditioner or detangling method? Try a trim or S & D ?

Ow, my eyes.

*highlights* Ah, much better.

Assuming you mean CV shampoo bars - did he used to use 'cones? They may have hidden the splits more before. A lot of people notice reams of splits when they go 'cone-free; it normally doesn't mean the 'cone-free shampoo/conditioner you've switched to has caused it, it's often that the splits have been there all along merely with silicone camouflage.

Also, is he using the bar directly on the scalp? Does he have rather long hair as well and piling it on top of his head? These things can cause damage. Maybe try lathering the bar in his hand and brushing in the lather with his fingers. There is nothing in the bars that would cause splits, it's just soap.

Don't be sorry, it was my fault for putting such a light font. I have changed the color so I hope all can read it better.

I'm so sorry, I hope you can read it now that I changed the color.

Has been changed, sorry once again.

An S&D would work wonders on him, but I'll have to see if he'll let me do that. I think you are absolutely right about the need for a conditioner change, and I've seen the way he detangles and he is quite gentle, especially when I do it for him.

Sorry about the color.

I did mean CV shampoo bars, and previously he wasn't using much cones. He kept stealing my Aubrey products! :P I did notice splits before, but minor ones and never like this! So, he has decided to stop using them but I'm wondering what he should use on his hair especially since he doesn't care like I do. But I got him some shea moisture, the ones for curls so hopefully that wil be moisturising enough for him.
