split end
Frayed hair tip
Split end has two unrelated meanings.
In hair care, a split end is a strand of hair that has frayed at the tip, splitting into two or more filaments—a sign of damage from heat, dryness, or rough handling: I need a trim to get rid of these split ends.
In American football, a split end is a receiver who lines up on the line of scrimmage, positioned wide from the offensive tackle.
