hair is simply dead cells. the more you die the more your hair will grow.(the latter is a sholin monk proverb)

Hi, Im a student in the field of cosmetology,
Nothing can really make your hair grow longer. Ive looked. But there are things you can do to help it.
One thing is that if you straighten or use irons on your hair, like myself, deep condition your hair ALOT! I do it two to three times a week! Even if you dont have a deep conditioner you can use regular conditioner on your hair for an hour or more, this also works nicely. My hair became really strong after this.
Vitamins help too! Take a multivitamin and a vitamin B-complex.
Do not color your hair alot! It weakens your hair causing it to snap off. If you do need to though, dont forget to condition, condition, condition!!! Dont forget bleaching! That is one of the worste things you could do!!
Cutting your hair doesnt make it grow faster!!! All that does is remove the split ends.
Massage your scalp regularly, this helps with growth!! It helps circulate blood flow in the scalp, with premotes hair growth.
Hope this information was helpful :)

Even though people say it's a myth, ( I am a cosmetologist), brushing your hair 100times 3 times a day does work. When you're brushing you're stimulating the cells on your scalp which helps the growth. Hair is not dead cells. Each strand has 3 layers that are not dead. Using too many chemicals will damage it until you let it grow out naturally.

hair is made up of dead cells,the only way you can make it grow faster and healthier is just take vitamins,trim the split ends if you have any,wash it with shampoo and conditioner and dont keep on combing every now and then.there are also chemicals that are said to be helping but i dont trust them because i think its a risk and not a guarantee.the natural way is the best way.good luck.

Trim the bottom of your hair once or twice every two weeks. Just the dead ends. Your hair should grow back faster.

Proteins can make hair grow fast. Eat meats, beans... Hairs are dead cells. That's why there is no pain sensation in a hair or hairs. Hope, I helped you.

Your hair and nails are both made up of dead cells. Take prenatal vitamins, that should help you out.
