What are some good products and techniques to get my hair to grow?

I'm African American. I just cut all of my hair off 2 days ago to a fade for another one of my "go natural" phases. How do I get my hair to grow faster than it does? Does it matter how often I wash or wet it? Does the Marsha Brady brushing thing work?

How Can I Make My Hair Grow Faster?

The subject I want to discuss today is a question that is often asked and seems to concern many women. It usually comes in two forms; 閳ユ发y hair doesn閳ユ獩 get any longer.閳?and 閳ユ窏ow can I make my hair grow faster?閳?br>

I閳ユ獡 sorry to say that, despite numerous advertising campaigns, there are no magic ointments or quick fix treatments that will make your hair grow faster. The average growth rate is one half inch per month. Sometimes hair does not seem to get longer because the ends are breaking off, making it appear not only, not to grow but even to get shorter. There isn閳ユ獩 anything you can do to increase that, however you can take certain measures to keep your hair as strong as possible.

Let me explain.

The longer your hair is, the 閳ユΖlder閳?the ends of it are. Everyday, wear and tear, such as sun, wind, blow drying, curling irons and other heat styling tools, even shampooing and brushing, all work together to gradually erode each hair. This eventually causes split ends that will, in turn, result in the hair breaking off.

The first step is prevention. Care for your hair as you would any valuable possession. Use a mild shampoo that is recommended for your hair type, such as: oily hair, dry hair, color treated, etc. If you are unsure, seek the advice of a hairdresser. I suggest using a conditioner after every shampoo; again, one that is formulated for your hair type. The conditioner will soften the hair and reduce the amount of wear causing friction between hair strands. Reduce the amount of heat styling you do. Whenever possible, let your hair dry naturally.

Finally, get regular trims. If you are striving for longer hair, see your hairdresser at least every ten to twelve weeks to have one quarter to one half inch trimmed. This will get rid of any budding split ends while, at the same time, allowing for growth.

While making sure these things are taken care of, remember that the hair papilla, where the hair begins, is nourished by blood vessels, so concentrate on a healthy lifestyle. Make sure you are getting the essential nutrients required by your body and promote good circulation with regular exercise and scalp massage.

Really all you can do is wash it every night and keep it healthy and clean.Don't use cheap conditoner or shampoo that just distroys your hair.Plus TRY and keep it in a tight pony tail if you can because when it pulls your hair it pulls your skin giving the brain more room for faster blood flow.Check it.

I use Hair Beauty Plus...but be careful...it also makes your hair thicker. I have ridiculously thin hair so it's okay for me, but if you don't want your hair getting any thicker, don't use this stuff.

Being a woman of color myself %26amp; having natural shoulder length hair, I find that washing my hair once a week with a deep conditoner treatment to follow works well. Also lubracatig your scalp twice a week with a herbal ointment. Because our hair is prone to being dry and brittle be sure to cover your hair prior to going to bed with a silk wrap or bonnet, to reduce breakage at night due to friction caused while sleeping...No hon the Marsha Brady thing just doesn't cut it for us to much agitated pulling and tugging

If I were you I wouldn't brush it at all, especially if its in its natural state, it can cause breakage. The main thing is to keep it moisturized. Not with petroleum based or mineral oil based products. Try things like Profectives lotions and water based creams, and hair oil on wet hair. Keep it clean by washing it every other day, like every three days, condition it frequently, comb and detangle with a wide toothed comb. About a year ago my hair wasn't even a full two inches long, now its almost to the middle of my back. I spray it every other night with a leave in conditioner, my favorite is 911, and I take vitamins specifically for hair skin and nails, I also take biotin, vitamin e and c... I use sulfate free shampoos and I'm in love with a conditioner called Paves Un-Damaged Goods deep repairing conditioning milk. I also am addicted to this reconstructor by soft sheen. In my growing out phase I wore wigs under a satin cap to minimize styling and stress on hair, it kept it from breaking off... I also wear a fitted cap at night to keep my hair from rubbing against pillows and becoming dry and breaking off..
