Thanks for the help ladies, I truly appreciate it. I`m 90% sure that what is causing my see through ends is a combination of only dc`ing once a month and braiding. I`ll add a pic on monday to give you a better idea.
I have very fine hair and pretty much all of my hair was see through not just my ends. My hair has thickened up substancially do to these things:
henna
trimming off damaged ends
cutting back on heat
protecting ends
I trimmed very gradually, a little at a time. No more than was necessary. I needed the length for protective styling and updo's, lol. Eventually it all worked all. Henna and Cassia aided me as well.
before you put a scissor to those ends.. please read this.... I got this Chicoro's fotki

Just by looking at your hair... I don't think you need to trim yet. Unless those ends are really damaged.
I should probably know this by now but what did the Henna do to help with the breakage/ends?
