What are hair growth tips for an african-american?

my hair was growing fine until I started to get stressed...wear lots of hats and rub it a lot..how can I grow it back..pls help its like neck lengh short..what should I do .any tips?? I heard mane and tail work s and ill try it soon. thank you

also .how can I make it fuller..thanks!

girl hats arent good thats makes it worse and washing it allot is bad too because it washes out all the natural oils that are good for your hair

what would be a good idea is that every night before you go to bed you condition your hair and leave it in over night and then take it out in the morning do this every night for as long as needed. Dont wear any hats this is not good because your hair needs to be able to breathe. And when you brush your hair make sure you brush from bottom to top!

There are vitamins that can help your hair and nails grow and it also make them stronger. It works, but it takes a couple of months before you see results. They will help the fullness too.
Try to stay away from straightening it to often and conditioning like chinarimmer said, will also help things move along faster.

I used to have that problem but then someone told me that I should brush my hair, and since my hair is curly and looks like the tail of a bunny if I brush it, I usually brush it right before I get into the shower. Another thing is that your hair is growing, you just don't notice it because you see your self every day

so how many times should I wash it? and what types of vitamins.. like a or e??thanks

I want it to get just a little longer on some sides..its uneven ^^

go 2 a doctor or something and ask for some tips. (no offense) my gramma had bald spots and they prescribed to her this hair growth thingy and it seems to be working for her.
I also used this thing called softee herbal growhich really worked for me and guess where I got it? the 99 cents storer!! It has natural herbs and vitamins A, D and E. Its fore all hair types and promotes hair growth. it also prevents dryness, breakage and split ends! purchase it now for like a dollar at your nearest 99 cent store!
Hope I was of help!

I'm not sure of the name of vitamins, but depending on where you live, you can go to a Nature's Way, GNC, or Vita World and ask for a hair growth vitamin. They would be able to lead you right to it!

This sounds really weird, and a bit nutty, but if you mix honey and mayonasise(sp?) together and use it as a conditioner it makes you hair grow faster. lol. I know, sounds nutty, but it works good.

thanks everyone!!! ^^

and no..im not putting mayo in my hair...0_o
