Grow Long Hair Thicker, Healthier, and Faster
Growing hair long or should it be said as growing long hair is rather really easy. It just takes displine and patience. For many of us, we want instant results. We would like to have long hair as soon as possible but the truth of the matter is that we grow an average of 6 inches of hair a year. We loose about 100 strands a day and on a normal head of hair, there are about 100, 000 strands. If your looking to keep some of the hair on your hair and grow some more consider these tips:
- Drink plenty of water. This cannot be emphasized enough. Water is needed for your hair’s nourishment.
- Eat plenty of foods that contain protein, zinc, minerals and vitamins that are essential for the hair.
- Keep away from hair styles that cause you to wear tight rubberbands as this can cause friction and cause breakage
- Do not wash your hair every day or every other day. We recommend once a week or once every two weeks.
- Always deep condition your hair. Every chance you get, keep your hair moisturized.
- Stay away from chemicals. Try to apply chemicals to your hair as sparingly as possible. Chemicals break down the hair cuticle and weaken the hair.
- Keep away from heating tools such as curling irons and flat irons. These tend to cause dryness and breakage to the hair.
- Protect your hair ends, this being the oldest part of your hair will need to be babied to retain your length.
- Make sure your scalp is healthy. Give yourself scalp massages to stimulate and promote hair growth.
Doing these things will grow your hair out longer and healthier. You may want to use topical aids to help you in your hair growth and thickness, but nothing can grow your hair faster then doing these things.
To challenge yourself, take before pictures and monitor your hair progression every month. Put yourself on a 3 month water challenge, or 3 month protein challenge or even a 2 month of deep conditioning challenge and see if you don’t notice a difference in the condition of your hair or length. Happy Growing.
