Paying attention to the time of year will help you to know when to cut the leaves. Banana tree leaves can become damaged for a variety of reasons. Some common reasons include frost, insects and dehydration. These reasons will vary, for instance frost will be after winter while insects tend to be in the spring and dehydration will be during summer. Although, there are different reasons for damage, you will approach any dead leaves the same way. Dead or dying banana leaves are quite obvious. They will appear wilted, dry and brown. Once they are brown, there is no reviving them and it will be necessary to prune them in order to keep your banana tree looking lush. Be sure to make sure your banana plant is getting enough water. If you live in an area that gets plenty of rainwater, you will not need to give your tree any additional water. If you live in a dry area, be sure to water the tree until the soil is moist. If your banana tree leaves have holes, they might have been affected by insects. This commonly happens during spring and summer. If this is the case, you might need to treat your tree with medicine or other treatments. Although banana trees are not often infected with insects, it's good to stay aware of any ailment your tree might have. If you have not prepared your plant for winter and instead decided to brave the cold, you will need to see how your banana tree withstood the low temperatures. Although, banana trees are a tropical plant, many people have said their tree managed to withstand cold weather. A banana tree damaged by frost will have leaves that first look withered before they eventually turn brown. One common way to avoid damage from frost is to actually dig up and move the plant. However, if this is not an easy option, you can cut the stalk down to about one foot off the ground. Then, cover the stalk with a plastic pot, to protect from the elements.

Summary: Check your banana tree during each season. Prune leaves that are brown. Watch for leaves with holes to know which stems to prune. Inspect for damage after frost.

After about 6 to 8 weeks, your roots will start to show considerably, especially if you did full highlights. The less often you wash your hair, the healthier your hair will be. If you wash your hair too often, it will start to turn dry. If you live in an area with hard water, consider getting a filter on your showerhead. This will help preserve your hair color. If your hair starts to feel gross between washes, consider using dry shampoo. Sulfates are harsh cleaning agents found in many shampoos that can make your hair dry. This includes clarifying shampoos as well. Since bleach makes your hair dry, you shouldn't use products that will make it even more dry. If a clarifying shampoo is labeled for dry or chemical-treated hair, then it is okay to use. Double-check the ingredient label to ensure that it doesn't contain sulfates, however. This is something that can happen to any blond hair type. Because each brand of purple shampoo is different, follow the instructions provided on the back of the bottle to determine how to use your shampoo properly. In most cases, you'll need to apply the shampoo to wet hair, wait 5 to 10 minutes, then rinse it out. Lighter, lavender-tinted shampoos are going to be gentler than the darker, deep-purple shampoos.

Summary: Touch up your look every 6 to 8 weeks. Wash your hair every other day at the most. Use a sulfate-free shampoo when you wash your hair. Wash your hair with purple toning shampoo if it starts to look brassy.
