Why do low mass stars never enter the red giant phase?

It will become a planetary nebula like e.g. the Cat's Eye nebula that was formed by the death of a star with about the same mass as the Sun. It will become a planetary nebula like e.g. the Cat's Eye nebula that was formed by the death of a star with about the same mass as the Sun ~ 1 M⊙:

The Sun, and any red dwarfs above about 0.25 solar masses, will expand into what's called a red giant, a late stage of stellar evolution. At this stage, the star starts to fuse different elements, and eventually throws off its layers as a planetary nebula, leaving behind a white dwarf made of carbon and oxygen.

A red dwarf that is too small to become a red giant will not turn into a planetary nebula: its fusion processes will eventually cease and it will probably produce a white dwarf made mostly of helium. But the main-sequence lifetime of these very small stars is longer than the age of the universe, so this has never actually happened yet. The helium white dwarfs that do exist were formed in binary star systems (and were formed during their complex dynamics).

Red dwarfs are small main sequence stars - the smallest and dimmest that are still able to fuse hydrogen in their core. Brown dwarfs are even smaller (in terms of mass), but cannot even fuse hydrogen - they are thought to be able to fuse deuterium and lithium. Stars smaller than a brown dwarf turn out to be gas giants like our Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

really dont know just need some points
