Growing Your Hair

TheHairStyler.com Hair Feature
By Katie Summers, THS Consultant


While there is no miracle cure which will make your hair grow faster, stronger or healthier, there are a few things that you can do to help your hair along while trying to change your hairstyle length.

Be patient. It takes time for your hair to grow. Statistics show that the average rate of growth is only one-half of an inch per month, which means that if you currently have short hair, by the time the ends have grown long enough to reach your shoulders, they are already a few years old.

Getting rid of any damaged strands and split ends will ensure that your hair growth will be healthy and will leave you with a fantastic mane when you have finally reached your desired length.

It is important to have regular trims every 8 to 10 weeks. While some might say that there is no point in cutting your hair while you are trying to grow it. Having regular trims will encourage healthy growth and make sure that your style and hair looks its best while growing.

By eating right your body will receive the right amount of vitamins which will help with hair growth. Protein and vitamin B are essential for hair growth and beta-carotene is great for promoting healthy hair as well as healthy skin and nails.

Look after your hair by brushing it regularly and using a comb when your hair is wet and a brush when your hair is dry. This will help to prevent your hair from breaking.

Washing your hair only when necessary will make sure that your hair can be conditioned and kept in check by your natural oils, which in turn will help it grow. On average, washing your hair about three times a week should be enough.

Exercising your body increases blood flow, which is good news for your hair as the added blood flow through your scalp will keep your locks healthy and growing.

What Affects Your Hair Growth
Outside elements such as weather and toxins will play a big part in hair growth

Excessive stress and some medications can stunt your hair growth. If you have any concerns make sure to speak to your doctor.

Lack of sleep will not only wreak havoc on your body, it will reduce your hair growth as your body won't be functioning properly. Make sure you get at least 8 hours of sleep a night and try to sleep on a satin pillowcase to reduce any damage to your hair while you sleep.




While growing your hair to a new length may take a while, there are plenty of options and styles that you can try while waiting.

• Using hair accessories can add a nice touch to your style and will allow you to pin any slow growing strands into an attractive look.

• Experiment with styling products to give your hair different texture. Adding curls with a curling iron or giving yourself sleek strands with a straightener can give your hairstyle a whole new look.

• Experiment with hair color. A fantastic color will have you admiring your locks while you wait for your length to come in.
