lately my hair has been showing little broken hairs and im worried, please tell me that is normal
I am not sure what you mean, but I assume you aren't talking about splits since I am almost 100% sure you are familiar with those. Could you describe said broken hairs?
Hey Ryan what i mean is when lets say you finger comb your hair and i have little bittie hairs that broke off the ends of my hair, i get little broken hairs on my hand that broke my off my main hair
Sorry I am not too familiar with this situation, my hair is only just past shoulder length, perhaps some of the longer haired members of this board will know what you are talking about.
Mark,
It's perfectly normal to have some breakage at the ends.
Those ends have seen lots of wash cycles, rolling around in bed, shirts coming on/off, pony-tailing, wind, finger-combing, etc...
They're gonna wear out sooner or later.
A dab of jojoba oil on the ends I find does help protect the ends somewhat.

i think this is normal, i have some shorter hairs around my face, where they must have broken off some time ago. Maybe from pulling it back in pony tail that i wear all of the time since my hair is now to mid back, I would not worry too much
I have pretty fine hair, so I get some breakage, but there's usually a little twang and a pop when a hair breaks. If it's breaking without resistance, maybe your ends are damaged. I didn't take very good care of my hair for the first year, so the last six inches aren't in very good shape compared to the top.
Pretty normal don't worry.
You should read through Bills "On being a Longhair"
Among other things it addresses your issue.
