If you’re healthy, & very active, your nails are growing, your hair should be growing RIGHT NOW. My 4 years old grand daughter knows how to let her hair grow. It’s almost down to her waist. If you want perfection, you NEED patience. Even anorexic models have long hairs, and they’re not considered ‘healthy’. http://www.newser.com/story/155031/12-celebs-who-battled-eating-disorders.html I was one, and had long hair when I weighed 85 lbs.

Babies can do that, by drinking their milk. . . . so can you, so can any of us without any help. From your: good genes, good hair care and all the healthy foods from Mother Nature, that’s where you get all your vitamins & minerals for growing from head to toes. Shampoos are meant for cleaning the hair, not for growing.

If you’ve straightened your hair in the past, it may grow slowly or none at all.
Google: “Foods for Healthy Hair” http://www.foodforhealthyhair.com/ http://sg.news.yahoo.com/food-for-healthy-hair.html – or 10 Best Foods for Your Hair.

NO MATTER which link you picked, they all suggest the same foods. Your hair may be the fastest-growing tissue in the body but, unlike the skin, it cannot repair itself. That is why getting the right balance of vitamins and proteins is imperative. Don’t expect to look like you’ve stepped out of a hair commercial the day after you’ve changed your diet. It is likely to take at least three months before you actually see tangible results. Hair is dead, but hair also has electrical energy; the negative charge of damaged hair can lead to flyways and unruly hair.

Growing healthy hair doesn’t come from a bottle or pills and hair products do not speed hair growth. Any hair oil, is another form to keep hair moisturized, nothing more. If you’re in HS, your hair & nails should be growing normally, and as healthily as possible, since you’re eating healthy foods. But when hair isn’t growing as fast, it’s because they’ve been tampered with: chemicals, hair straightening, etc. . .

Cutting your split ends yourself, spend 5-10 mins. on a sunny day so you can easily spot them, using a 2″ scissors, cut strand by strand, section by section, allowing new growth to take over. Then 2x a year, get a good hair cut. This won’t speed things up, but it will make the hair look healthier while it’s growing. Even healthy hair like mine get them, due to normal brushing & styling. Hormonal changes can have a big effect on hair.

Remember: The hair industry is a billion dollar business, they sell products that cleans & condition the hair. They also sell products that damage and causes hair loss. They also DO NOT give money back guarantee for damaged hair or hair loss due to ‘abuse’. Mechanical, chemical, or thermal styling. Hair straighteners and relaxers top the hair products pose the greatest risks. Hair relaxers, related products marketed heavily to African-American women, are dangerous because they may contain powerful chemicals such as lye, a toxic substance also used in drain cleaners.

Man-made products & supplements can do more harm than good.
Beginning in February 2008, they experienced one symptom after another: diarrhea, joint pain, HAIR LOSS, lung problems, and fingernails and toenails that fell off. FDA has received numerous reports of harm associated with the use of these products, including stroke, liver injury, kidney failure, heart palpitations, and death. 3-15-11. Pills like medications ALL have side effects. Beware. Example: “I used minoxidil drug to restore the hair on my head; however, I ended up with unwanted body hair. I don’t know if it is temporary or I have to seek medical treatment.” YA poster 9-27-12. Four men are charged in federal court for selling home-brewed hair growth drugs online. http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/news/54991911-78/ahn-growth-hair-kim.html.csp

“You find people oiling hair every single day, the hair sweats and it doesn’t get washed. What do you think happens? It goes limp and becomes thin because it is not breathing,” Shamillah Mohammed, a hairstylist at SUQA, says.
HAIR TRIVIA:
• The hair on your head grows at about 0.00000001 miles per hour. That’s a half-inch per month. Mine grows 3/4” in 29 days.
• Every day, the 5 million or so hairs on an adult’s body add about 40 yards of new growth.
• At any given moment, about 90% of the hairs on your head are growing and 10% are getting ready to abandon ship.

Step 1: Assess YOUR hair type because this will allow you to realize what works for YOU and what doesn’t.

Step 2: Heat damaged end usually include split ends, dry brillo like hair meaning your hair is lacking hydration. Go for a “light” trim or an “actual” trim. Light trim just cuts some of the split end,but not all ans an “actual” trim will cut of most for the most part. I’m not sure how much you are willing to cut off, so you pick: Light or Actual

Step 3: Try some different hair styles that don’t include you applying heat to the hair. Also try air drying your hair instead blow dryers, roller sets or whatever hear process you use on your hair to dry it.

Step 4: Start taking essential vitamins such as prenatal pills (you can take them even if you are not pregnant, it will no harm you, I do suggest to eat before you take there, for whatever reason if you take them on an empty stomach it gives aches) , Folic acid pill, drink water, Biotin pills, omega 3 pills or eat a can of omega 3 nuts. Vitamin E and Vitamin A. Keep in mind you do not have to take these consistently together or every day and shouldn’t so mix them up and try to remember (lol) to take at least 3-4 3 times a week.

Step 5: Hydrate and Deep condition the hair with a hair mask, hot oil treatment or deep conditioner. ***THIS IS WHEN ASSESSING YOUR HAIR COMES INTO PLAY because some of us can put heavy oils on our hair and some of us can not. Do you have thin hair or thin?

1.You can use all of these together or use what you have or want:
Mix up an avocado to replenish your hair’s natural oils, an egg, olive oil, a banana, milk, honey. Apply the mask to your hair for approximately for about 45 minutes. Take a hand towel (bc it will fit in the pot) and close it up in a twisty with a rubber bands or hair band. Put it a pot to boil. The purpose of this is to generate warmth to your hair so your hair will soak up your concoction.

**Try doing this at least once or twice a month

2. Use hydrating products, Use stimulating of the scalp products, Alcohol free- start reading your ingredients on products you buy. Just bc its expensive doesn’t mean it works, its what’s in it.

3. Leave in Conditioner

4. Dry your hair without using heat: Air dry
