How do you make your hair grow faster?

I want my hair to grow longer faster, any tips on how I can do that?

If you straighten your heair, STOP! [for about 4 weeks] you have to let it breathe. hair care products such as leave in shampoo, to make hair stronger and shinier, HELP!
my hair is just below my breasts and it took me about 3 months to get it that length from shoulder length.

vitamins and go to sallys and get main and tail it works wonders!

shampoos that helped my hair are.. garnier frutis long and strong shampoo and conditioner, pantene pro-v beautiful lengths shampoo and conditioner, or maine and tail shampoo and conditioner (garnier frutis was my favorite though) and also take prenatal vitams! I know A LOT of girls that are not even prego but they take prenatals just to make their hair grow, and it works!!! and its good for you too :] goodluck!!

Dont listen to people who tell you not to trim your hair. The more I cut my hair the more it grows. dead ends wont grow and trimming hair is the best conditioner for that. another thing dirty hair grows fast.

Biotin is a great supplement to take.
It helps your skin, hair and nails.

Personally I think the first comment was the best, and it's pretty much gone downhill from there; but hey, I'll join in anyway!!!

There's heaps of things you can do...

-don't shampoo your hair more than you need to. Using sodium laurete can cause a shampoo build up, and will make your hair less shiny. If you use baking soda, and mix it with an equal amount of water it will help heaps.

-put your head forward so that your hair is facing down towards the ground and brush it from the back of your head. It might hurt the first few times, but it stops hurting after that. This will increase the volume of your head, so it looks hair ad beautiful.

-natural dyes help your hair. Henna improves the health of your hair and helps protect it.

-chlorine kills!!! ...not quite, but it's not good for your hair... this means wash your hair after you go to the pool. Otherwise your hair is likely to become brittle.

-GO NATURAL!!! Natural hair products are sooo good. Chemicals can make your hair look great 'In just 3 washes!'. Can you loose weight in 3 washes? I think not. Think about it 'healthy looking hair' - keyword LOOKING. To make your hair healthy you need to gradually give it the things it needs... :D

-If you drink lots of water and eat right then you're most of the way there. Water keeps you hydrated, so your hair will be too... Food has nutrients. About half of the amino acids that you NEED come from food. Healthy lifestyle = good hair.
This includes less stress... :D

So... to some it up... smile heaps, stay natural, eat right and your hair should be beautiful :D

I dont understand how trimming would make it grow faster. hair grows from the top not the bottom. I can only assume that because the end of the hair is weaker, it breaks easier so if that part is trimmed off, then it will take a while for it to become brittle and so will not break as easily.
basically, with trimming, hair grows at the same rate it always does, but if its trimmed then you may see a difference more because the ends arent breaking off as quick as it's growing.
trimming should be very minimal tho. not whole chunks.

to the people that are saying dont trim your hair: if you have damaged hair or use heating tools or dye it, the ends often split and can easily break off. if you take about a half an inch off every month or so, it will take care of those dead ends so that your hair won't break off. fried hair will do nothing for u. only healthy hair will grow so try to keep your hair as healthy as possible and trim those dead ends whenever it is needed

There is no speed limit to grow your hair. If youd like, trim your hair, and put olive oil on the ends so that the ends wont become dry. Other then that, use certain shampoos.. the best is to stay away from pantene ( if you use it ) and get a lot of sleep, drink a lot of water, stay healthy!

just keep it healthy
get a trim every once in
a while, not a big one just
like an inch or so to get
the split ends off...also you
can get nail hair growth
vitamins at like walmart.

Eat healthy, use hair protectant before applying any heat, get a trim every two weeks, massage your scalp before going to bed, don't wear pony tails too tight, take vitamins.

I am a teacher at a local beauty school and have been for quit some time, a lot of people are saying to not trim youre hair, DO trim your hair because if you have split ends they will keep splitting all the way to the root and eventually will break off at the ends, trim it about every 3 months, there is nothing you can do to make it grow faster, it grows 1 inch a month, but if its not healthy, it will just keep breaking off, a proven self tested method is after getting out of the shower put BioSilk on the ends (avoid root because it will make it greasy) and let it air dry, wash your hair every other day, use minimal heat, DO NOT put any styling products on hair before using heat, use low heat settings, avoid heat on ends of hair, and if you can afford when use that(when.com), if not use Pantene ProV Moisture Renewal! I promise this will work! You will notice a difference in your hair even after doing this for just 2 weeks! after 2 months you will notice a huge difference in length and texture!

Trim your hair.
Obviously some people know nothing about hair.
Unless you want a head full of brittle split ends trim it.
If you don't, the split at the tip your hair you keep splitting all the
way up to your roots. Ultimately causing the hair strand to dry out and
fall out.

prenatal vitamins
I use them and it works
it also makes your nails
grow fast.
your hair grows about 1/2 an inch.
with the prenatal vitamins it
grows about 2inch a month or more
if you take 'em every day.

I've always heard that eating jell-o helps because of the gelatin in it - I suppose gelatin must have some benefits, since you can buy gelatin pills in the vitamin sections at drug stores.
Also, taking a vitamin called biotin will DEFINITELY help it grow faster; my hair grew a half inch in two weeks - average hair growth for most people is about 1/4 a month.
A good sleep schedule, a healthy, low-fat, low-sugar, high-protein diet helps,
As does lots of exercise and steering clear of lots of nicotine.
And before bed, spend about 3-4 minutes rubbing your fingertips firmly over your whole scalp in a massage like way to stimulate blood and such in that area.

Regular trims keep it from breaking off as often, and keep it from getting split ends that make hair go up at the ends and not look like it's growing. Also, Garnier Fructis' Length Strength line helped me a tad bit.

If your hair breaks off easily, try moisturizing products like Aussie 3-Minute Miracle, dove leave-in conditioner, Sunsilk hair masks, Aussie Moist shampoo Conditioner, and putting mayo in your hair twice a month before shampooing. Make sure you scrub that out really well though - you don't wanna let that stench linger!!

I have tried many things for growing my hair but nothin has helped. hair growth is from god.

ok I want my hair to grow too and lately I've been reading a few articals about advice and natural ways to get longer hair much faster and most things I've learnt I never even knew!

-deep comdition your hair to increase the softness and keeps it in better condition for longer.It also stores natural oils needed for the hair to grow!

-healthy food's and drink.Just one piece of fruit isnt going to speed up your hair growth you need a minimum of atleast 3 pieces of fruit to gradually gain a flat stomach and healthy hair meaning longer hair!

-A decent scalp massage for about 20 minutes each day.This gets the blood moving around your hair meaning it'll make your hair grow faster and faster,try doing this to your hair whalst upside down it will allow more blood to pump round your head, dont be upside down too long because it may stop your circulation around the rest of your body!

-got a boar bristle brush? okay they look like this http://www.babynaturopathics.com/shop/pc/catalog/children-boar-bristle-hair-brush_1822_general.jpg
bend over and brush your hair forward so your brushing over your forehead do this for about 10-15 minutes each day to improve circulation in order for your hair to grow more!

-stay away from heating products.Okay if your reading this you proberly use a lot of heat on your hair yourself if you dont then thats FABULOUS!if you do then CUT IT OUT BUDDY! it damages your hair making it week and dry this means it wont progressively get longer and longer if you really wish to continue using heat for your bennifits of looking in the mirror everyday and thinking hmm yes I look lovely then get a decent heat protector you rely on!

-lastly, try and gain more sleep at night eg. go to bed an hour earlier or a little bit less but this will deffinatly improve your hair growth, sleep is extremely good for your body as well as your hair soo try and get as much as it as you can!

okay this it to be honest guy's, I tried all this stuff everyday for about 3 weeks and within the first week I noticed improvement hope it helpss love jadine[:

get garnier frutis length and strength conditioner and use it everyda and your hair will grow real fast. don't even use shampoo just the conditioner

well um I used to have really long hair then I cut it in the summer very short like say up to my shoulders and it used to be very thin now its thick and the trick is to always have it tied up in a pony , in a bun or plaits , now its growing :D also eat healthy!

I've wanted the same thing, so I've talked to my hair dresser and a few people in the chemists e.g. boots. The things that I’ve been told to make hair grow longer faster are:

1. Get a trim (1/2 inch) every 8weeks, to get rid of split ends as that prevents your hair from growing.
2. When shampooing your hair, really scrub into your scalp because that will help for sure.
3. When you get out the shower do not get your towel and proper scrub your hair dry because your hair is weaker when wet, meaning more likely to fall out more often.
4. Hair bubbles, do not use hair bubbles with the metal bit on as that rips your hair out.
5. Eating protein’s e.g. chicken, will also improve your hair to grow faster.
6. Do not have a shower everyday, have it every other day because your hair doesn't like it.
7. Eat healthier, more vegetable and fruit will help more.
8. Don't get too stress because when you stress you tend to lose more hair.
9. With the stress problem, if you naturally stress a lot you can take biotin which helps as well, also sleep well, you need sleep.
10. Also, sunlight will make you hair grow faster because of the Vitamin D.

I hope this helps, because it did for me. I remember I had short hair which was to my shoulder and by following these instructions my hair grew 4-5 inches long within 3-4 months. I know this sounds such a long time but if you think about it, your hair grows an average 1/2 inch a month and I got 4-5 inches in 3-4 months, so it grew quicker by 2 inches.

Hope this helped and good luck!! Xx
