will my hair grow more, and be less dry and silkier if I stop using the blow dryer?

Answer 1

If you want to blow dry, make sure you put something in your hair to protect it. Even Mousse can protect your hair

Answer 2

hair dryer has to be used to speed the process up. Heat is a great enemy to hair, however, and that means that dryers must always be used with great care and on a moderate setting. A hair dryer on its hottest setting will reach temperatures well above that at which water boils. As we have seen, this can have a disastrous effect on the hair. Using a 'hot oil' has a protective effect. So too do hair mousses, which contain specially formulated resins.
Curls produced by setting are tight when they are first formed, but they can be brushed out into a lighter style. Using setting lotions or hair sprays gives a firmer effect, and helps to hold the temporary curl in for longer.
Softer, looser styles can be created by brushing and blow drying only, without using rollers. The principle is exactly the same as that of the setting process. The only difference is that the hydrogen bonds re-connect to form the style that has been shaped by the brush.
All hair gradually absorbs moisture from the air, and as the hydrogen bonds break it will in time lose its style - especially in damp weather!

Answer 3

It can help. When you rinse your hair try turning the hot water down and rinse in lukewarm to cool water. The cool water will close the hair shaft up and make your hair silkier looking. Blow drying can result in open shafts and a frizzy or dried out look, and split ends which hinders healthy hair growth. Maintain regular trims.

Answer 4

I don't think so. The key to less dry hair is to keep it moist. So depending on your hair type, if you do use a blow dryer afterwards use a light moisturizer on your hair.

Another thing that may help to grow your hair is to keep your ends trimmed like every 2 months.

Answer 5

yes.

But I say yes, because you probably aren't taking the correct precautions to protect your hair with the blowdrying. Excessive heat is terrible wear and tear on your hair. If you must blow dry, you CAN have silky hair still. Thermosilk is good for that. Sally's beauty supply stores have great products for good prices. Find products that protect your hair. Do a three-minute miracle conditioner on your hair to start out with. that will help with much of the damage that you have already done. After that, take care of your hair.

Answer 6

YES.
I shock the hair dresser whenever I go to them because they dont see such healthy, long hair. I cut my hair once a year, if I did it every other month as recommended it would be much healthier.
My routine: No hair dryer, no chemicals/hairspray, recommend a leave-in conditioner rountine at least once a week, especially during the harsh summer/winter months, and when towel drying, do squeeze dries, not a "scrubbing" motion--that'll cause breakage.

Answer 7

YES.

I don't even need to explain. You got it on the money.

Answer 8

yes

Answer 9
