Question

is hard because its like..shoulder length, and i dyed it so i have to trim it so it will grow but it ends up shorter..and it takes forever to grow. help me out !!

Answer 1

start growing.

Answer 2

Are you taking a multi-vitamin and eating a healthy diet? Plus, I wouldn't recommend dyeing it until you go gray if you cannot stand it. I dyed my hair red for years after it went from blond to brown. Now I am happy with my low maintenance brunette locks and I have grown them from very short to past shoulder length in 2 1/2 years by being healthy and getting regular trims. Unfortunately, there is no easy solution. It takes some discipline to do it right.

Answer 3

You only need to trim your hair if it's getting split ends. Hair is basically dead once it leaves your body so nothing you put on the outside will help it grow, only a healthy diet (but still limits it to the normal 1/2"/month). Just stop using permanent dyes it so it stops breaking off and looking shorter.

Answer 4

Ikay, I would just get the ends trimmed, less than an inch even, because once you get rid of the bad ends it will grow faster. I would also stop dying your hair, because it isn't helping, it is bad for your hair and then it will be ruined. you just have to be patient. I know that may be hard, but just try it.

Answer 5

Patience--
human hair seems to grow at a pretty consistent rate of about half a millimeter or so per day, or about half an inch every month It may grow faster or slower depending on your age, your genetics and your hormonal state (pregnancy seems to have an affect on hair), but half a millimeter per day is a good average.
That means on average about 6 inches a year.

Answer 7

For the patient:
Wait.

For the impatient:
1. Get into an accident.
2. Be a patient in coma.
3. Months later... TADA!

Answer 8

stay away from heat such as blow dryers, curlers, and straighteners etc... don't dye your hair and keep it as healthy as possible. if u want long hair u have to keep your hair in great condition.
since u dyed your hair i suggest that u do a weekly deep conditioning treatment, with a hair cap. u have to keep the deep conditioner on your moist hair for 30 minutes then rinse off. the rest u have to wait. oh yea one more thing u should buy a hair moisturizer. it keeps your hair soft when u put it on.
good luck
ps. stop cutting you hair!
