Split ends are the worst. No matter how many home remedies or products you try, the only way to get rid of them for real is with a visit to the hairstylist for a clean chop. Sometimes however, you tend to forget about the raggedy ends until you have an occasion to attend. Hairstyles like loose curls or ponytails only further magnify them so what do you do when you're in a fix like that and cannot get a trim quick enough? Try these 4 hairstyles as they're smart enough to temporarily keep your split ends undercover.
1. Ballerina Bun
While looking elegant as ever, a ballerina bun also disguises split ends easily. Since it is formed by tightly wrapping the hair length, any ends will be hidden well underneath. It's also simple enough to do in 30 seconds flat without any tutorial necessary.

2. Braided Updo
If a basic bun won't do the trick for you, try an updo hairstyle with the addition of a braid. This will create more texture in the overall hairstyle, making it ideal for split ends to remain almost invisible.
3. Scarf Braid
While tied up hairstyles are definitely the best option for tucking up split ends, you could still work those splits in a scarf braid. While the hair end is generally visible in a braid, you can use the fabric of a scarf to wrap it over the end. Plus, a bright printed scarf is a great way to take away attention from it.
4. Chignon
Got a formal occasion coming up but don't have time to get rid of your split ends? Then turn to the chignon. This classic French hairstyle uses a tuck and roll technique to create an elegantly finished updo. A hidden bonus is how split ends will remain hidden under the hair length.
Once you try these hairstyles, don't forget to head for a haircut soon to finally get rid of your split ends.
