1. Cutting your hair makes it grow stronger or faster This myth may have started in relation to men’s facial hair but there are different kinds of hair on your face and head, they have different properties. Cutting your hair will only make it shorter and hair grows almost exactly half an inch per month, no matter what you do or take.

2. Split ends can be repaired. Not true, they cannot be repaired and should be cut off before the split gets higher

3. Brushing your hair is good for it No it is not, it is very bad for it, brushing is the leading contributor to split ends and breakage, groom your hair but once it is in place STOP

4. Tight hats cause baldness No they don’t, but they can cause hair breakage and to a lesser degree split ends

5. Hair can turn grey or white overnight What utter nonsense. This one was born in literature. What part of "fiction" did they not understand? Hair receives its colour genetically and can only turn grey or white over very long periods of time. Actually the hair doesn't turn white in as much as the hair loses colour, but not over night, or even a wild weekend

6. Pluck one grey hair and two grow back Rubbish

7. Baldness is inherited from the mothers side of the family Male or female pattern hair loss can be inherited from either side of the family, male pattern hair loss usually begins at about 18 to 20 and female pattern hair loss begins between 45 and 55.

8. Dandruff is caused by a dry scalp Dandruff and a dry scalp are two entirely different things, a good shampoo and conditioner will take care of the dry scalp, which is flaking, and dandruff shampoos are not a good idea for a dry scalp and can do more harm than good, Dandruff on the other hand is quite a serious condition and requires treatment, the flakes are actually oily not dry, very few people have actual dandruff and you would know if you did.

9. Dandruff is contagious No you already have the microorganism that causes dandruff, yours just aren’t active. On the other hand, there are plenty of nasty things that can get from one persons comb to another so be careful.
