Treat your hair good!!! And no matter what, NOTHING, NO PRODUCT OR PILL will make your hair GROW or grow faster. But it will appear to be growing faster if you take care of it and treat it right. Because its growth wont be stunted, breaking or thining. (If healthy, you hair will grow 6-8 inches per year)

Maybe you are using a perm that is too strong????....

Its always better to use a weaker perm for your hair than a really strong one. A perm/relaxer that is too stong is the major cause in hair weakness, breakage & drying (its a sign of over-processing). I advise that you choose the best for you (Your Choice) but make sure its not too strong. Dont buy the strongest one on the market. Start weak and if you need to increase then do it next time around.

Use "Motions CPR" Conditioning Treatment EVERY week. After you wash your hair, use CPR, put a plastic cap on and sit under a hooded/bonnet hard-hat dryer for 10-15 mins, then wash it out. (This is Deep Conditioning) And this is the BEST thing you can do for weak, thin, dry or damaged hair... hint *CPR (Critical Repair and Treatment). It really does seal you hair cuticles and flood them with protein and moisture. It repairs your hair and make it so much stronger and grow at the optimum rate. It also keeps your hair healthy even if it already is. It's great!!!

That will stop the breakage and add moisture. The next thing you need is a Protein Restructurer. Perms/relaxers and other harsh treatments distroy the natural protein-bonds in our hair. This will not rebuild them, but it will resturure the bonds that you do have left. (Thats why its best to use a weaker perm because it doesnt cause as many bonds to break.) Motions has this also and it works really well to start restructuring your hair. Healthy hair will hold moisture better.

I get my hair straighten once every season (fall, winter, spring & summer) so thats also the same time I get my hair trimed. You need to trim your ends too. This is very important to slowly get rid of those dead/split ends which causes moisture lost. Split ends causes your hair to break, because it cant properly hold moisture, which causes your hair cutiles to open wider and break. This makes hair thin from the loss of stands and stunks hair growth. (Split Ends = Dry Hair and Broken Hair !!!)

* Make sure you are being kind to your ENDS, dont use curlers or flat irons unless absolutely nessary (use rollers more). Stay away from the blow-dryers (try to use sit-under dryers). General Rule, "Stay away from HEAT."

You can find all of this at Sally's and any Black hair store and most of it at Wal-Mart.

Also our hair is made of protein (all protein), so you may want to look into your diet and make sure you are getting enough. Taking a women's multi-vitamin (or pre-natal) or Biotin everday will make sure you are getting enough of it, along with calcium which our hair also loves. You have to take care of your hair from the inside and out. Hair products take care of the outside. But you also have to check on the inside... your diet! to make sure your hair has what it even needs to grow and thicken.


If you need any more tips or how-to's send me a note. Good Luck.

I wouldn't suggest using Dr. Miracle products, but that's just my opinion and very few African-American women do use Dr. Miracle. My suggestion to get your hair to grow back is to find a good moisturizering shampoo and conditioner. I would suggest Creme of Nature shampoo and conditioner or you can even use the Silk Elements line as well ( your can find this at Sallys), if you are tight on money. If you have some money to spend, I would suggest KeraCare Hydrating Detangling Shampoo and Humecto Conditioner. Also, keep your ends trimmed and if you get a relaxer, try relaxing your hair every 6-8 weeks. Try washing your hair once a week and deep conditioning it as well every week.

The hair is not just a part of your body and it is a symbol of beauty, status and health. It is important for you to take proper care of your health in order to prevent early hair loss. Learn here https://bitly.im/aMwR2 It is not a very serious problem and with a little bit of caution you will be able to prevent further hair loss. There are certain uncontrollable factors like pregnancy conditions or certain illness or genetic factors that will result in hair loss. But, this does not mean that you cannot do something about your hair loss.

Because of a hair problems, I had to cut my hair that was reaching my hips to the hair that's barely reaching my neck and believe me, I know what you're going though. Sadly. there's very little we can do except to wait for our hairs to grow again.
I'd really like to help you, but I have no solution to our problem... I'll let you know if I find one.

Keep it healthy, if it's full of split ends it'll never get past your neck, sometimes you have to cut your hair (ends) to make your hair longer...go figure! Apply a masque once a week. Condition generously and daily, specially if you use heat to style your hair...

Go Natural!!!! My hair is longer Natural then it was relaxed. All that heat you put on your hair when it's relaxed is damaging.
