Whether your hair is thin or thick, coarse or fine, you can get your hair to grow longer by following a few easy guidelines:
Keep Hair Moisturized
One of the best ways to help your hair grow is to keep your hair hydrated. Wash hair every other day instead of daily to avoid over drying. After shampooing, apply liberal amounts of conditioner and leave on hair for at least 5 minutes before rinsing. To add extra moisture apply a weekly deep conditioning treatment. Also, avoid products that contains ingredients such alcohols, petroleum, or sulfates as they can cause dryness in hair.
Protect Hair from Damage
Hair grows from the scalp, but for hair to grow long you have to be able to maintain the hair that you have already grown! Damage done to the tips of your hair shaft can lead to split ends and breakage. These split ends can spread up the hair follicle leading further damage and loss of length. Avoid split ends and breakage by sealing the tips of your hair with gel or a leave-in conditioner. Wear a satin hair cover at night or use satin pillowcases to prevent hair from snagging at night. Avoid brushing hair with fine tooth combs or bristles that can snag or pull at hair and cause damage.
Another way to protect hair from damage is by limiting the amount of heat applied to your hair. Air dry your hair when possible and if you must use heat to style your hair then be sure to apply a styling product that protects from heat.
Take the Right Vitamins
Your hair needs proper nutrition to grow healthy and long. You can get the vitamins you need from a balanced diet. However, many people don’t get around to eating all of the vegetables, fruits, healthy oils, and minerals required to get this daily dose of vitamins. The good news is that you can supplement your diet with vitamins specifically geared towards hair growth. Some of these hair growth vitamins include Biotin, Pantothenic Acid, Saw Palmetto, Folic Acid, MSM, Choline, Zinc, etc. Taking all of these hair growth vitamins in one supplement is an easy way to accelerate your hair growth progress.
Keep Your Scalp Healthy
The scalp is an often overlooked, but important element in achieving hair growth. Keeping the pores on your scalp clear of dirt and buildup is necessary for hair to be able to grow. When washing hair be sure to massage your scalp thoroughly to clear away dirt from pores. It is a commonly held belief that stimulating the scalp will also aid in promoting hair growth. You can stimulate the scalp either by elevating feet above the level of your head or by massaging the scalp with essential oils (i.e. lavender, rosemary, or coconut oil,).
