Before beginning the video, the London influencer said those who have curly hair should straighten it.
She penned in her caption, which read: "Stop split ends & means hair won’t break off so easily, trick my mum told me. Curly hair straighten it first".

Stefanie first separated her hair into two sections, tying the top section into a messy bun and then brushed the loose hair through.
From there, she separated her hair again into smaller sections before twisting those sections tight.
The social media star explained that you will be able to see your split ends come out of the twist and it's at this point you can begin cutting.
Using her kitchen scissors, Stefanie trimmed the split ends off and warned her followers to not "go too close to the twist".

The internet star, who boasts over 1.3 million followers on Instagram, said to repeat twisting each section until you've done it all.
Stefanie, who has incredible long waist-length hair herself, then suggested that the split end trim be done every three weeks.
In the comments sections of the video, many of her followers confirmed the hack does work and claimed they saw "instant results".
