3 Common Hair Myths You Need to Stop Believing (Right Now)

Let’s be real: the internet is full of beauty tips that sound legit but are totally off. When it comes to your hair, the wrong advice can do more harm than good. So we’re here to shut down the myths and serve you the facts about hair care... Foxy style.

Myth #1: Trimming your hair makes it grow faster

The Truth: Trims don’t actually speed up hair growth (that happens at the scalp level) but they do keep your ends healthy, which prevents split ends from traveling up your strands. Translation? Less breakage and longer, stronger-looking hair over time. Regular trims = major growth vibes. 

Foxy Tip: Schedule a trim every 8–12 weeks and use a deep conditioner weekly to minimize damage in between salon visits.

Myth #2: Heat styling ruins your hair

The Truth: Heat styling isn’t the enemy but unprotected heat styling is. When you use high-quality tools and apply a heat protectant (our Cool AF Heat Protectant Spray is a must), you can still curl, straighten, and wave it up without frying your strands. Style smart, not scorched. Also, a good hair mask can do wonders for keeping your hair in top shape.

Foxy Tip: Our Cool AF Heat Protectant creates a weightless barrier to defend against heat up to 450°F. 

Myth #3: You can repair split ends

The Truth: We hate to break it to you, but once a split end shows up, there’s no glueing it back together. The only real fix? A trim. But you can absolutely prevent them with deep conditioning, protective styling, and being gentle with your hair (especially when wet).

Foxy Tip: Swap your cotton towel for a microfiber one, and never skip leave-in treatments on damp hair.

Healthy hair is all about consistent care, not miracle hacks. Use the right products, protect from heat, stay on top of trims, and treat your hair like the bae that it is.

And don’t worry, we’ve got everything you need to keep your locks looking flawless, from heat protectants to game-changing tools. Now that’s the real hair truth.
