How to make your hair grow faster

   So recently I made the rash decision to chop off all my hair. I LOVED the cut, but after washing it I had no clue how to style it! Sure my stylist gave me a quick lesson, but it was all quickly forgotten and there I was clueless in front of my mirror. So as much as I love my shorter hair, I am trying to grow it back out. At least all my split ends are gone and I get to have a fresh start! There are going to be a few awkward stages I'll have to work through however. Right now, I'm at about the 4th one...

   After doing some research I learned that the most effective way to grow your hair faster is to stimulate the hair follicle. There are a few ways to do this. First off, wash hair in very warm water, and scrub/massage your shampoo AND conditioner into your roots for as long as you can. This will stimulate the hair growth and moisturize the scalp. Hair grows easier through a scalp that is well moisturized vs dried out. Coconut oil on your roots helps too. Massage a small amount into your scalp for as long as you possibly can (I usually do it for around 15 minutes or so).  

  Another trick I learned was to give your hair a good strong pulling on everyday. Yep, pull on it. Not like a painful "yank", but more like a firm pull for a few seconds. I swear it's working! 

   Prenatal vitamins. These are great not only for your health, but also in providing your body the nutrients it needs to grow healthy shiny hair (and nails!). I picked up this brand at Walmart and it seems to be doing the trick.

   And last but not least, avoid using heat on your hair. Heat damages hair like no other and the less you use the better. I've been rocking the beachy wave for about a week now and it's working for me. I just work a bit of coconut oil into the ends to seperate them a little and tone down any flyways.

I've tried all of this and my hair is growing back pretty fast, and healthy too!  Good luck!
