You must maintain a clean and healthy scalp area, maintaining moisture, and conditioning.Always stimulate your scalp by doing manipulation with a brush uniformly around the entire scalp area. You must shampoo your hair at least twice a week always following with a moisturizing conditioner. Your hair should be trimmed(at least 1/2") after each chemical treatment, or every 4 weeks, you need to use a protein treatment one week after any chemical treatment,immediately followed by a moisturizing conditioner.Dont use too much heat in styling your hair. When using heat use protectant as a barrier between the curling/straightening iron, and your hair.There are many protectants over the counter, you may ask your stylist to suggest one for you. Follow the advice given above, and your hair should be sprouting like wild flowers. Good Luck!

Eat more protein, take trips to the salon for a trim every 6 weeks, get a shampoo made for your hair type and they even have new shampoos that can help hair grow longer (garnier frutris length and strength) Also take it easy on your hair products. If you straighten or curl your hair everyday, let your hair airdry or dry it on a cooler or lower setting. Styling and the sun does most damage.

You probably can't really do anything. On average hair grows about 1/2 inch a month. How fast or slow your hair grows is hugely genetic, and diet plays a smaller role. You can try to eat really nutritiously, but it would take months of that to notice a small difference (if any). Sorry, that's just the way it is. Any hairdresser or store that tries to sell you something to make it grow is stealing your money.

You can take the over the counter~prenatal vitamins~even if you are not pregnant or planning on it~it will still help the growth of hair and nails~ also trying washing and conditioning with 'Mane & Tail' products, sounds weird I know but it is actually shampoo and conditioner they use for horses, it works GREAT~keeps hair long, healthy, shiney, and thick!! Good Luck to you !! :)

A tried and tested method is to apply warm olive oil to your scalp the previous night and let it stay. Wash your hair the next morning. Over time this makes hair grow faster. Also use henna time to time. I usually soak henna is tea water and mix an egg with it after its cooled .Leave the paste in the kitchen for one night. Next morning apply the paste to the scalp and leave it for 1 hour for conditioning and 3 hours to get color. Wash it off as usual with shampoo.
PS: Do not use henna if you have completely grey hair--it will make it turn red. Its best for black hair or black hair with little grey.

HERE IS YOUR ANSWER*--BRAID YOUR HAIR SO YOU CAN FEEL IT AT THE ROOTS.
SLEEP WITH IT BRAIDED. IF YOU HAVE A STYLE THAT YOU LIKE, WHERE YOUR HAIR IS BRAIDED (OR HALF BRAIDED), DURING THE DAY, THAT WOULD BE GOOD/ IF YOU CAN, LAY BACKWARDS IN THE BED, WITH YOUR HEAD HANGING OFF OF THE BED. (ON YOUR BACK). YOUR SCALP WILL GET ITS NOURISHMENT FROM THE BLOOD GOING TO YOUR SCALP. IT'S UP TO YOU HOW LONG YOU WANT TO LAY ON YOUR BACK. IT MAY NOT BE GOOD FOR EVERYONE. IT WORKED WONDERS FOR ME. REALLY. MESSAGING YOUR SCALP, ALSO, AND MASSAGE 1OR 2 VITAMIN E CAPSULES ON YOUR SCALP. GET 200 UNITS--OTHER WOULD BE TOO THICK. BITE ONE END-SQUEEZE AND APPLY WITH THE TIPS OF YOUR FINGERS. PUT EXCESS ON YOUR FACE. MAKES YOUR SKIN NICE!

as a hair stylist, i would suggeset a product called nioxin. it helps promote hairgrowth. i have seen results on cancer patients before i have also used it myself. it is a bit spendy, but worth the money. you can buy it at trade secrets or maybe even online. also, prenatal vitamins work really well too, when i was pregnant and taking the vitamins my hair grew at rapid rates!

Massaging your hair near the roots helps to stimulate growth as well as eating high protein.
