Interesting question! I remember cutting my hair way too short and panicking, so I tried to make it grow faster. I've heard everything from taking nutritional supplements (I've seen some that are made specifically for hair growth), vitamin E, massaging my scalp before bedtime, taking showers more often, even trimming the ends...but that's all just a myth.
Hair, on average, grows a quarter of an inch each month, no matter what you do to it. During more humid seasons (like summer) hair is supposed to grow slightly faster, but not by much. Just hang in there--time will let it grow beautifully! Hope this helps!

Head Massage For Fast Hair Growth
A thorough massage is necessary to improve the blood circulation of the scalp. By massaging the scalp the hair follicles are stimulated and the texture of the hair is also enhanced. Massaging activates the nerves and a sense of calmness in the mind ensues. This therapy is useful for people who have routine stress.
Everyday spend about 5-10 minutes massaging your hair with your fingers. Move your fingers circularly all over the head starting from the temporal parts to the occipital area. Apply the necessary pressure to the areas. Even Yoga exercises such as the headstand are recommended for proper circulation to all the parts, especially the hair follicles to stimulate growth.
There are various types of massaging techniques, which can be followed. Indonesian style is best suited for relieving mental tension and improving the quality of the hair. The massaging steps are given below in detail:
1) Stand with your feet apart and start breathing in and out
2) Bend from the waist till the level of your head falls below the waist area.
3) Bring your feet close to each other and start rubbing your scalp with your knuckles all over your head for about half a minute.
4) Slowly start bringing your body to the normal level and continue rubbing on the scalp.
Be careful that when you are massaging your scalp, do not massage roughly. The hair fibers may split causing you pain and damage to the hair. So massage gently and thoroughly.

i'm in the process of growing my hair out too, and it seems like forever.. i have used horse shampoo for almost a month now and have been taking multivitamins..being at you best heath is a sure plus in hair growth. blood supply is another in hair growth.... if dont get the right amount of vitamins and minerals, then your hair will not grow its normal lengt (1/2 per month)... the fancy shampoos that guarantee faster hair growths are right but it wont make it grow faster than 1/2 or 3/4 more per month.. they just simply aid in nutrition....hope it goes well for you..

Body tissues of all types renew themselves faster when you have three things in balance:
Good nutrition (take a multivitamin every day to be sure).
Water, and lots of it.
And exercise, which helps to speed up metabolism and other body processes, such as cell turnover.

don't damage your hair or highlight, color, or use any of those treatments in your hair. just brush it out daily and don't brush it more than 3-4 times a day
