Light segments and whole ends not working?

My segment on my light is discolored any way I bend it, I don’t know how to fix, and suddenly as I’m putting up, the whole end blacks out unless I twist it all around itself, for now I’m just leaving it there. The lepro N1 strip

Could I cut it or would that stop the whole thing as well? 

Dear User,
 
Thanks for reaching out.
Please note that the N1 light cannot be cut. For further assistance, please check the direct message we just sent.
We look forward to your reply to that message.

Best regards,
