Brief Answer:
Please follow the guidelines

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX greetings

I had gone through your question diligently and I understand your concern, this condition is also called as Trichoptilosis

I see young patients in my clinic with similar complaints, in such a case I would come up with following possibilities

Any stress mechanical chemical or thermal can cause splitting of hair ends like
pulling a comb forcefully through tangled hair and repeated combing
use of hair XXXXXXX or any coloring agent
exposure to direct sunlight

I would advise you to follow these guidelines
protect your hairs from the Sun, wear a hat or apply any conditioner that contain sunscreen
Washing and drying hairs properly and regularly
Brush or comb hairs very gently and never over brush
get your hair cut regularly because all hair gets damaged after a while

I hope you will find my response helpful and informative if you have any further clarification please don't hesitate to write us I will be happy to help you
Best wishes
