Split ends and white dots ugh!

[Aingeal]

So I woke up this morning, took a look at my hair and UGH I had tons of split ends and white dots. I'm so frustrated! I wear my hair up 5 - 6 days a week, oil with coconut oil twice a w eek for 24 hours, co wash twice a week, and use no hair spray. I must be doing something. Wrong to have this many splits. I did flat iron my hair about ten days ago or so, but it was the first time in four months. I don't use heat styling.

What else can I do to prevent this issue? I have been running more lately, but don't see how that would bother anything. Ideas?


ETA: I did a nice long s & d session, so it looks a lot better now.

You can irreparably damage your hair in just one session with the flat iron, depends if your hair is absolutely bone dry ('bubble hair'), the temperature, if you used an effective heat protectant etc.

I'm totally staying away from it. Thankfully I seem to have gotten most of it.
