Get Healthy Hair Now – How to Grow Long, Healthy Hair

Growing long, beautiful and healthy hair is not an extremely difficult process. It does not require the upscale hair products hawked by salons, handfuls of expensive vitamins, or any sort of sacrifice to the long hair gods. What it does take is common sense, dedication, and a lot of patience. Indeed, growing long hair is actually more a question of what you shouldn’t do rather than what you should!

If you make the commitment to closely follow the twenty steps below, not only will you grow long hair but your hair will be in beautiful condition throughout the process.

This guide was written specifically for the person who wants to grow extremely long hair – waist, hip, knee-length or even longer, but it will benefit anyone who is seeking longer locks. Keeping your hair in excellent condition, at extreme lengths, takes more caution and conscious effort than it would if you intend to keep your hair shorter, at mid-back length for example. If your goal is to encourage healthy hair growth but not to the extreme, then certain modifications may be made to a few of the steps below and still maintain successful results. If you use common sense and don’t allow damage to occur, you know you’re doing the right thing to promote healthy hair at any length.

It is also important to keep in mind that just about everyone has a “terminal length” which is the longest your hair will grow based on the active growth period of your hair follicles (the growth cycle of individual hair follicles turns on and off as determined by your genetics). Nothing here can help you alter your genetically predetermined terminal length. That being said, you’d be surprised how incredibly often what was thought to be terminal length turns out to be nothing more than hair too damaged to continue to grow… an easily resolved issue!

Hair loss, extreme dryness or any sudden change in your hair’s condition may be due to a medical condition, often thyroid issues. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, it is imperative that you seek advice from a qualified medical practitioner rather than from this guide. That being said, you might want to check out our disclaimer below.

Please feel free to experiment and tweak the below steps to best suit your own hair type and growth goals.

1.  The first step to growing long, beautiful hair is by far the most important. It is absolutely non-negotiable for anyone who wants healthy hair at any length, but it is also by far the hardest step you will have to follow. In order to have long healthy hair you absolutely have to start with healthy hair. You must cut off every inch that is considerably damaged. If you are going for extreme length, from that point on you will have to treat your hair like delicate, antique lace at all times. Remember, once your hair is at your waist the ends can be as many as six years old. Your hair will go through a lot of trauma in six years no matter how careful you are with it. Because there is absolutely no way to repair damaged hair, you must start out with healthy hair to have healthy hair when it’s long, there’s no way around it. If your hair is not very damaged up the entire shaft, you may start with a very healthy trim and then continue to trim monthly to maintain your length until all the damage is gone; however, keep in mind that if the amount of damage does not continue to decrease using this method, you didn’t remove enough of the damaged hair to begin with and another healthy trim is in order. You’ll save precious time by removing as much damage as possible from the very beginning and immediately implementing the steps that follow to your now beautifully healthy hair!  Remember, long damaged hair is never as pretty as shorter healthy hair, and because healthy hair needs to be trimmed less often and doesn’t break as easily, the result is much faster growth overall. I learned this step the hard way and wasted ten years trying to grow damaged hair I refused to cut… hair that started literally growing like a weed when I finally bit the bullet, did the dirty deed and stopped doing all the horrible nasties that initially resulted in the damage. Duh. Learn from my pain.2.  Always trim your hair often. Damage to your hair will move up from the ends and the only way to stop the damage in its tracks is to remove it as soon as it happens. Trim hair a half inch every month or so (the average rate of hair growth) if you are maintaining your length. If you are actively growing your hair, trim it a half inch every three or four months. In between trims it is beneficial to sit in bright light and snip any splits off the ends of individual hairs with a good pair of hair cutting scissors. If you are persistent with this method, regular trims may be able to be postponed even longer. If your hair begins to show damage, it is important to trim it more often! Damaged hair doesn’t grow, it breaks, and damage will only increase with time.3.  If you don’t have someone you trust implicitly to trim your hair for you, find a salon that caters to long hair, has a long hair specialist, or at least be sure to glare at your stylist as menacingly as you can while you clearly explain your hair-growth goals before letting her come at you with scissors. It also helps to ask the stylist to show you exactly their perception of the amount of hair you want trimmed by showing you what they think is the same distance from the end of their comb. It also helps to remember, it is not in the best interest of most salons or stylists if you rarely make visits to their salon, which is definitely a conflict of interest! If your hair is short and styled, you are always there spending money for maintenance. If your stylist tries to convince you that your long, healthy hair should be cut, run screaming from the salon immediately! Make sure that anyone whose advice you consider, be it a stylist, friend or family member, has only the best interest of YOUR acknowledged hair growth goals in mind. Otherwise smile politely and ignore every word they say. You absolutely are not too old, too thin, too short, too gray, too anything to have long hair.4.  Avoid using any heated appliances whenever possible. No blow drying, no curling irons, no hot rollers, and especially no flat irons or crimpers! If you absolutely must blow dry do so minimally, and contrary to popular belief, it is best to let your hair dry naturally for as long as possible and use the blow dryer just to finish it off at the end if you must. If you must use hot rollers, use flocked or soft rollers, not spiked plastic rollers. If you insist on using curling irons, flat irons or crimpers on a daily basis, really long healthy hair isn’t in your future. If you do use heat on your hair, be sure to use a product that will help protect your hair from it and keep in mind that every time you apply that heat you are likely to cause some damage.5.  Don’t use any harsh chemicals on your hair. Definitely no perms and no peroxide! If you must color, use non peroxide color, henna (but not if you have very dry hair… henna tends to be drying but does help to “plump up” fine hair), or even make your own natural hair color. Hair color with low peroxide is more tolerable, but using these products again and again will eventually affect the health of your hair, it is unavoidable. No perming or straightening ever for any reason. These chemicals actually break down the structure of your hair and completely rebuild it… no other chemicals meant to be applied to hair are more damaging. Don’t do it.6.  Avoid chlorine and saltwater. If you go swimming in either, shampoo your hair as soon as possible after exposure. If you are blonde, you may want to consider using a shampoo specially formulated to remove the green tinge that can come from exposing your hair to chlorine. If you swim very often, invest in a good bathing cap (and to be really kind to your hair, apply deep conditioner and take advantage of the body heat that will be generated while you’re wearing it). If you spend a lot of time in the sun, use a conditioner that provides SPF protection against the sun’s rays, or cover your hair with a tightly-woven hat or scarf.7.  Be extremely careful of what kind of hair jewelry you use. Never use metal barrettes (the “French” style) and absolutely NEVER use rubber bands, they will tear your hair when you try to remove them. Avoid anything that has sharp or rough edges, such as plastic combs with rough seams or hair claws with metal hinges. Never put anything in your hair that attaches with Velcro or springs. If you take anything out of your hair and a significant amount of hair comes out with it, don’t ever put it back in your hair. Scrunchies are very hair-safe, and several can be used if your hair is very long. 8.  Never put your hair in any kind of style that will put undue stress on the individual hairs… no tiny braids, no extremely tight coils. If you pull all or some of your hair into a braid or a ponytail to create your hairstyle, make sure it isn’t pulled tight enough to put stress on the roots of your hair. Pulling hair tight repeatedly commonly results in bald patches! If you go after the long hair “quick fix” and put extensions in your hair, be forewarned that your own hair will likely be significantly more damaged when they are removed than it was to begin with. Dreads almost always have to be cut off to be removed and are tremendously damaging to hair.9.  Avoid extreme diets. If your body isn’t getting enough nutrition, neither is your hair. Even if you try to avoid fat, it’s essential that you don’t completely eliminate all fat from your diet. Your hair (and body) will surely suffer for it. If you tend to restrict calories then be sure to take a multivitamin (any comprehensive one will do) to make sure both your body and your hair get the daily nourishment they need.10.  Be very gentle with your hair when it is wet. Don’t rub your hair vigorously with a towel; gently squeeze the towel down the length of your hair.  NEVER brush your hair when it’s wet, this is when your hair is at its most delicate. Use a very wide-tooth comb to smooth wet hair. In fact, it is best to avoid brushing your hair under most circumstances, a wide-tooth comb is almost always a better choice.11.  Be very careful with what you choose to style your hair. When you do use a brush, use only natural boar bristle brushes, which are useful in distributing sebum (your hair’s natural protective oils) to the ends of your hair and to remove loose hairs. If your hair is so thick that a boar bristle brush won’t penetrate, there are several smooth wood brushes on the market that will be kind to your hair. Using a wide-tooth comb is far less damaging but it is important to choose a comb that is molded or has smooth seams (use a bit of sand paper to smooth rough seams if necessary). Comb your hair often throughout the day to detangle it. Work in small sections, always starting close to the ends, combing down in long, smooth strokes until all tangles are removed, and then starting the next set of strokes higher on the same section of hair. Knots are very hard on your hair and it’s best to avoid them at all costs. Tiny knots that absolutely cannot be removed by any other means should be cut from your hair, not torn. Also, avoid back combing or “teasing” your hair with a fine-tooth comb. This lifts and tears the cuticle, destroying even the healthiest of hair in a very short period of time.12.  Comb your hair to ensure all knots have been removed before shampooing. After the knots have been removed, use a boar bristle brush to remove loose hairs, which will also cut down on knotting during shampooing.13.  Let your hair get dirty once in awhile. That’s right… permission to be lazy, what more could you ask for? Don’t shampoo, spend the entire weekend in bed drinking, eating chocolate covered strawberries, all while those wonderful natural conditioning oils work their magic. Don’t forget the boar bristle brush before shampooing to distribute those oils. 14.  Don’t pile your hair on your head when you wash it, that’s just asking for knots. I recommend using shampoos free of Sodium Lauryl Sulphate or Sodium Laureth Sulphate.  Sodium Lauryl Sulphate (SLS) is a harsh (caustic) detergent that can “actually damage the outer layer of the skin, the stratum corneum, causing dryness, roughness, scaliness, fissuring, loss of flexibility and reduction of the barrier functions of normal healthy skin.  The lipid dissolving action of some detergents, including SLS, cause damage to the moisture retaining ability of the cellular level resulting in water loss and loss of water-binding ability” (Cosmetic Science, C. Prottey, 1978).   Apply shampoo only to the roots and wash your scalp, then work the shampoo to the ends. You may find adding a bit of water to your shampoo or very quickly ducking under the shower spray after initially applying it to your hair will increase lathering significantly, making it easier to work the soap to the ends of your tresses. When you apply conditioner, work it through to the ends of your hair, smoothing and detangling gently with your fingers as you go. Continue smoothing your hair as you rinse. This will make combing your wet hair much easier and less likely to tear.15.  If you wash your hair often or have very dry hair, you may want to consider using only conditioner to wash it on occasion. If your hair isn’t very dirty the conditioner will easily rinse away surface contaminants16.  Rinse your hair in as cold water as you can stand. Not only will this make the cuticle lay flat and less likely to snag and break, but by the same token you’ll get the added benefit of very shiny hair that’s easier to comb wet. Yes, you will get used to doing this, even in the shower, and it is wonderfully invigorating for your whole body, not just your hair17.  If your hair is especially coarse, extremely curly, you didn’t heed my stern advice in Step 1 and your hair is damaged or if it is prone to damage easily, you may want to consider using a leave-in conditioner in addition to a regular rinse-out conditioner.  In some cases, leave-in conditioners may replace rinse-out conditioners altogether.18.  Become familiar with the ingredients in your styling products. Once you know what affects your hair positively or detrimentally, you will be able to effectively choose products that contain ingredients that are best for your hair type. For instance, some people find that their hair does not respond well to silicone products (found in most “smoothing” or “anti frizz” products and many conditioning shampoos), if used over a long period of time. Any ingredient that ends with the suffix “cone” in the ingredient list is usually a silicone derivative and should be avoided by those sensitive to it.  Products that nourish your hair with natural are excellent alternatives to the chemical laden, overpriced high-end lines sold in department stores and salons (I can personally recommend HerbalNature Alternative Hair Products). Either way, what matters most is to use whatever works best for your hair, not what is necessarily the hottest trendy product or for that matter, the most cost efficient product. By the same token, it helps to clarify your hair as often as needed by rinsing with a mixture of apple cider vinegar and water. to remove build-up of product in your hair and avoid the damage to the cuticle this can cause if left unchecked. As a whole, this is one step to growing long, healthy hair in which using common sense rather than falling victim to marketing ploys plays a huge role.19.  Deep condition your hair at least monthly, even if it’s in good shape this will help keep it that way. If your hair is dry or damaged, deep condition weekly. Hot oil treatments are a good alternative for very dry hair or for extra conditioning (but be forewarned, to some extent hot oil treatments will lift any non permanent color you’ve added). You might want to try washing and applying conditioner at night, wearing a shower cap to bed, and rinsing in the morning for a really intense conditioning treatment as well. A word to the wise… conditioning nights have been conclusively proven to be detrimental to romantic evenings with the significant other. Use this information to your own best advantage based on the current status of your relationship.20.  Lessen the friction on your hair whenever possible. Don’t sleep with your hair loose or if you must, use a satin pillowcase. If your hair is very long and prone to getting caught in car windows, seat belts, doors, or even under your butt when you sit down, it’s important to remember that all these things can cause damage to your precious locks. Wear your hair braided or in an updo hairstyle whenever possible to avoid daily wear and tear. And we all know, no matter what promises hair product manufacturers claim, the ONLY way to fix damaged hair is to CUT IT OFF… perish the thought!

It is one hundred percent true that Biotin plays an important role in the prevention of hair loss. According to nutritionists biotin is an important vitamin for hair growth. It is also highly advisable to take biotin in addition to other medcial treatments such Minoxidil, Poscar or Propecia.
Most of the human population consider hair loss as a social embarrassment. Occurrence of hair loss in mid twenties of either sex will definitely affect one’s self-confidence. There are various therapies available to prevent hair loss. Most people are having this question in their mind- How to prevent hair loss?
Biotin and hair loss are inter related. Deficiency of biotin may cause unhealthy and breakage of hair, which might finally lead to hair loss. Biotin is an important component not only to new hair growth but also keeps the skin and nails in perfect health.
Try to avoid raw eggs in your diet since the high amount of protein contained in raw egg binds biotin and makes it non-available to the body which in turn causes deficiency of biotin and hair loss. Always use shampoo, which is enriched with biotin and silica for preventing hair loss.
Supplements are necessary to restore B12 levels, which will completely prevent hair loss. Since Biotin and hair loss are closely related, it is highly advisable to include biotin regularly in your food.
Food containing a lot of biotin are egg yolks and liver. You would have to consume thousands of calories daily to get what your hair needs. That’s why I suggest biotin supplements.
People with blood type A don’t have the ability to absorb B vitamins. As we already know Biotin, a family member of Vitamin B, is required for hair growth. Adding high doses of 58 grams to your food twice daily will prevent hair loss extensively. No side effects are known.
Biotin and hair loss are closely related. So good food full of biotin include brewer’s yeast, green peas, oats, soybeans, walnuts, sunflower seeds, green peas, bulgur and brown rice may definitely help to prevent hair loss.
You should be aware that persons with heartburn, acid reflux, or GERD that are taking antacids may absorb biotin less and hair loss may definitely occur.
So avoid over-the-counter medications of antacids for better assimilation of Biotin and hair loss prevention.
Biotin is hair food! If you suffer from hair loss I highly recommend taking a biotin supplement and using a biotin enriched shampoo.

Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is an immune disease that affects almost 2% of the population in the US. This type of hair loss appears in various degrees of severity from small, round patches of hair loss that regrow without medical treatment to chronic, extensive hair loss that can involve the loss of all hair on the scalp or body hair. This type of hair loss affects both genders equally and can occur at any age, although it occurs most often in children and young adults.
Orthodox Treatments for Hair Loss
Doctors aim to treat the underlying cause. If a patient has iron deficiency anaemia they’ll be given iron tablets. If current medication seems to be causing hair loss, GPs may consider prescribing alternative medication or changing the dosage. In certain cases, they may also suggest minoxidil liquid to encourage hair growth or recommend hair transplants.
Thin, fine or thinning hair?
These three terms are often used in the same breath when talking about thinning hair. However, they each mean something different.
1. Thin hair
If you have thin hair, it means you physically have a small number of hair follicles on your scalp. Blondes normally have the most hairs, around 140,000, with redheads having fewer, around 90,000.
2. Fine hair
Although blondes have more hair follicles, the actual diameter of their hair strands are normally smaller, making it appear ‘fine’. Hairs that are coarse have wider, ‘thicker’ hairs.
3. Thinning hair
When hair is thinning, it means that the scalp is in the process of losing hair. This can be due to a variety of conditions. The most common cause is androgenetic alopecia (hereditary hair loss).
Treatment for Alopecia Areata
Treatment of this type of hair loss includes immunomodulating therapies such as glucocorticoids, topical immunotherapy, or anthralin, or biologic-responce modifiers such as Minoxidil. The choice of treatment depends on the patient’s age, as well as the extent of hair loss. Milder cases often see a greater improvement with treatment than severe cases. In no case does treatment restore full hair in patients with 100% scalp or body hair loss.
Due to a lack of credible information, many women are still confused about the reason for their thinning hair and hair loss. So, get your Hair Loss Facts straight at http://www.hairlossfact.info

In general women’s hair loss does not result in total hair loss as like that of men. Even though women’s hair loss is partial, it is devastating for the individual when it does happen.
The psychological impact of women’s hair loss is extensive when compared to men since women consider their hair as a vital part of their beauty and find it to be an important part of their outer appearance.
Women’s hair loss has different reasons. Heredity is one of those. Moreover the treatment of women’s hair loss is entirely different than that of men, because the medication offered for re-growth of hair may cause the growth of hair on other parts of the body such as chest, back, and face. Most women don’t like facial hair growth.
Women suffering from hair loss need to consult a doctor to find out what causes the hair loss. Once the cause has been ascertained, the physician will be able to prescribe the suitable medication. For women’s hair loss, many physicians prescribe estrogen to correct the condition.
Women’s hair loss can be treated with glucocorticoids. Topical application of Minoxodil or Anthralin is the only recommended treatment available for women’s hair loss. Women’s hair loss in the initial stage can be treated well and the response to the treatment is also extremely good. So if you are losing hair, see a doctor as soon as possible.
An important condition called Androgenic alopecia is found to be affecting about 2% of the population. This condition causes complete hair loss all over the body. Women’s hair loss falling under this category is found to be difficult to cure. Doctors may prescribe certain medicines to reduce the symptoms of Androgenic alopecia.
Women which just gave birth to a child also suffer from hair loss very often. This type of hair loss is temporary and may stop within 6 months after birth. This is mainly due to the fact that there is a higher estrogen level during pregnancy, which might result in keeping the hair follicles in the growth phase.
Immediately after childbirth, there is a sudden withdrawl of estrogen, which may cause the hair to enter into the hair loss phase. Hair may grow again after 6 months, but applying hair tonic may hasten re-growth of hair.
Sometimes crash diets may lead to women’s hair loss and also rapid weight loss over a short period. In addition to this, emotional and physical stress may also result in hair loss. Immediately after the alleviation of the stress, the hair falling will be stopped.
Frequent dyeing and chemicals e.g. Perming solutions used on hair may cause hair falling. This condition may occur when a woman uses chemicals very frequently. The hair begins to break off. The hair falling treatment products when applied on the scalp may strengthen the follicles.
Once you have identified the main cause of hair loss, choose the right treatment at the right time to ensure better hair growth. In most serious cases of women’s hair loss, it is always advisable to seek the help of a dermatologist for complete diagnosis and treatment plan.

Hair – the most beautiful asset of human beings and the pride of famous, lovely people. Getting nostalgic about the days when luscious, bouncy and shiny look of your well-kept hair used to invite envious looks? Receding hairline and scalp problems have been giving you anxious moments? Chill out. Modern day shampoos, hair oils, conditioners and other hair related products are vying for your eye to get rid of your hair problems. Dandruff, thinning of hair, its brittleness and graying, slow growth and baldness are some of the common problems which surface in both the sexes as a result of aging and due to genetic make up. Cure for hair loss, cure for dandruff, baldness cure and other such hairy matters have been concerning people for long, and you are not alone in your quest for regaining the lost glory.

We tend to take loss of hair as a result of aging but it may not essentially be so. Hair loss may result due to improper care, stress, extensive use of hair cosmetics which may not be suiting you or even use of drugs. It is imperative to know your hair before you start your hair loss treatment. A visit to a good hair loss doctor is strongly recommended.

While the methods mentioned above may work well, they also hurt your pocket a fair deal. Instead, look around your house and you may find simple items to make home remedies which will do the same job. It may result in regaining a thicker and healthier hair at a fraction of the cost.

Massage to the hair and scalp is as important as that to your body. A regular and good massage keeps your body smooth and shining. So it goes for the hair. A healthy massage with essential oils such as almond or even the humble vegetable oil may work wonders. The oil gets into the scalp and further to the hair roots, leading to increase in blood circulation thus revitalizing the hair and promoting regrowth of hair cells. You may wrap your hair in a plastic hair cover overnight and then shampoo it in the morning.

Rinsing your hair with a mix of apple cider vinegar tea is also known to promote hair growth. A mixture of grinded lime seeds and paper works wonder on the scalp promoting hair growth.

For dandruff treatment, try applying some yoghurt to your hair and scalp. Leave it for sometime so till it dries. Rinse it nicely with Luke warm water. It may result in providing you a home made cure for dandruff.

Try applying 2-3 teaspoons of lemon juice in your hair and keeping it for sometime before rinsing it with water. Itâ??s another proven cure for dandruff.

Augment the above home remedies with a balanced and healthy diet. Again, a quick look around the house may be all you need. A handful of white sesame seeds every morning may give you the desired amount of calcium and magnesium thus facilitating scalp nourishment and preventing loosening of the hair follicles. Regular use of yoghurt as part of diet is also recommended by hair loss doctors.

The best advantage of home remedies is that they donâ??t cause any side effects. All you require to do is to move to the nearest departmental store or to your kitchen and get going. It may be finally an end to your hair complaints.

Everyone talks about massage but did you know there is a right and wrong way to massage your hair, and actually your body but we will concentrate on getting your hair to grow so hair massage is a major issue we must tackle as it is so very important. The right massage not only stimulates growth but can actually even increase the strength of your hair follicles. The wrong massage can actually break your hair, cause no effect from the massage (other than it feels good), and definitely not help you reach your goals. What is the purpose of a good scalp massage? The scalp becomes ‘tightened’ as we encounter stress, etc. therefore creating a loss of circulation which is necessary for good growth. The wrong massage vigorously rubs your scalp AND your hair either by hand or using a tool of sorts, ruffling the hair as the massage proceeds.

The right massage is done using just your fingertips by applying a goodly pressure, keeping the hair from moving but only moving the scalp against the underneath body tissue. The outer skin moves over the inner tissue ONLY. You may need to practice this a little bit in the beginning to understand the principle.

You will notice that when moving your finger tips in this manner, areas of your scalp don’t seem to want to move. They may seem to not move at all but move to different areas of your head and also notice that different areas act different from each other. Don’t become impatient and begin moving the hair as you would in a surface massage. This is a NO-NO. You break hair when you do this. When the scalp seems to not want to move, this is an indication your scalp is STARVING for circulation and needs your attention desperately. So, concentrate diligently on those areas the most and if you can, do this at least 2 times a day for about 1/2 hour. You will find the more you deep massage your scalp, the looser the scalp will become which means of course, the more movement you will be able to obtain using your finger tips. You are causing the blood to move more freely in your scalp and the roots are now getting the circulation it was starving for.

Another big culprit of breaking your hair is combing it. I would tend to just about bet no-one has shared this information with you before as the average person is not told that there is a right way and wrong way to take care of your hair. I always thought it didn’t matter but it really does. As a little girl, with baby fine dry hair, my hair was snarled all of the time. Since I cried every time it was combed, it was cut and I really wanted long hair. It was below my waist when it was cut and kept short. I wish someone had known what I am about to tell you. NEVER use a comb on your hair in the first place unless it is an extreme situation which we will also discuss here. So what do we do?

Do not comb your hair wet. Do not blow dry your hair as it will dry out. Air dry your hair just as much as possible. Heat dries out your hair. Look at how the summer sun can wither things when left in it. When your hair is dry, using your fingers, gently pull your fingers through your hair as if your fingers are a comb but when your fingers get stuck (run into a snarl), gently take both hands and slowly in the middle of this snarl, pull it apart doing just a little bit at a time. In other words, never pull tightly but when it feels it is tightening, go at it from a different direction. This is not as time consuming as it sounds. It definitely eliminates stress on the follicles creating less breakage and when you are done combing your hair with your fingers, you will have no snarls. I cannot say why this works so good other than our body seems to produce oils through our fingers and they seem to naturally remove the snarls rather than forcing the removal of them.

Once the snarls are removed, brush your hair with a very fine ‘horse hair’ brush. Do not worry if it doesn’t go all the way through to the scalp. It isn’t supposed to. Just move your hair so you can cover all of it with your brushing. You stimulate your scalp with your fingertips and not your brush.

Once your snarls are removed, you have completed your massage, and you have brushed your hair, use a natural hair extension so that you do not need to ADD anything whatsoever to your hair to create any damage, i.e.; leave in conditioners, hair spray, any type of additives, no clips, just your natural hair extensions and you will see your hair become healthy and robustly grow. HAPPY hair growth.

First you need a natural hair extensions. Why? Will show you why herein. Make sure you have the right one for you and one that has no clips, glues or things that can further damage your hair. Be Careful.

Hair can be thin and baby fine at birth and naturally appear un-healthy. Not only do we encounter stress, lack of proper nutrients, bad lifestyle habits but hair naturally breaks and re-grows so we need to increase the strength of the hair follicle plus encourage our body to grow new hair.

First our care of our hair is a primary issue. Treat your hair like you WANT it to grow. This is why a natural hair extensions can help us with this. Why shampoo your hair every day and strip it of its natural lubricants? Yes, I know. It looks dirty, right? So, a natural hair extensions can cover up most of your own hair. Instead shampoo your own hair every 3 to 5 days. In fact if your scalp is dry, you might want to go longer. You will find this amazing and notice a definite thickening of the follicle. Research shampoos and conditions and find ones that encourage growth with no breakage. You might even try to contact a ‘hair growth’ clinic to ensure you get the quality you need. Stay away from cheapies. Treat your hair like it is fragile when you shampoo and condition it. Be gentle and use proper massage techniques

Give your hair a ‘rest’. When you are sick, you go to bed so your body can heal itself. Your hair is obviously not healthy so it is sick and needs it’s rest for a time. Again, treat your hair like it is fragile. There are proper massages, proper combings and even other tricks to implement to enhance your good care of your hair. Using natural hair extensions will allow you to give your own hair the rest it needs so it can become healthy again.

Stress and bad lifestyle habits might be things you cannot or dont want to change but you can still grow healthy hair. It just might take a little longer. Using the tips herein will still benefit your hair.

Nutrients are another major factor impacting our hair health. Our lives are so busy there is just no way to eat properly or to take massive amounts of herbs, vitamins, etc. so keep this simple. We can use Vitamin E which is for our skin, hair and nails. A decent amount of 1,000 mg a day should be enough. The other major vitamin is an un-tested theory that has worked well for alot of people and that is a prenatal vitamin. Vitamins that are coated are poorly processed by the body as the acid in the stomach has to firstly dissolve the coating which, by this time, the body is disposing of the vitamin leaving it without the desired affect of the vitamin. Prenatal vitamins usually are not coated and contain extra amino acids which are for hair, skin and nails. I have been told that we cannot overdose on vitamins so they should not hurt us as our body will just simply eliminate the excess. Yes, men too have successfully taken these as it appears there is nowhere else you can get all the ingredients in a prenatal vitamin in one place.

Drink at least one bottle of bottled water per day. Your body needs water for growth and health. If you can handle 3 or a day, that is even better but make sure it is at least one.
