I usually have my hair 5 or 6 inches below my buttox in lenghth. (I am pretty tall). My cousin is now in cemo thearapy and i donated almost 2 feet of hair, one foot for her and another for locks of love. My hair is now just above my elbows and i would like it to grow out again so i can make a wig for my friends mom. She has had several benign tumors and she might have a melignant one now (results are not in, i just found this out.) I would like to keep a descent lenghth of hair and if i donated it it would be when cemo starts, which is not that soon and i was hoping to grow it as long as possible as fast as possible. What ever lenghth it is i will donate when it is time but is there anything that i can do to make it longer.

Continue to use your products that you have been using. Obviously your hair grows really well. Try doing hot oil treatments before you shampoo and rinse with cool/warm water thoroughly. Also, massage an essential oil (lavender, jojoba, tea-tree, olive...) into your Damp hair. The key word is Massage (5-10 min.). This stimulates the scalp nerves...If you have fine hair, a small amount (5-13 drops of oil) will go a long way. Start with 5 drops and add extra drops as you feel the need. Hair grows about a 1/2 inch per month for most people, but some people who use essential oils on their scalp and hair {along with washing and conditioning} are able to get an inch of growth a month. I am one of those people and I hate that I learned that about myself later in life rather than earlier because I could have had long hair a long long time ago. I use to use certain creamy moisturizers but not since I learned about those essential oils from an on-line friend which allow my hair to grow with little or no clogging of my scalp pores unlike the products I was using.

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.

If you want hair to grow faster or more healthy, you have to take supplements that work on your body chemistry to support hair's growth and strength at its genesis.....once it has grown out, it is just dead keratin
Try GNC, they make a supplement called " Ultra Nourishair" in formulas for men and women..they are HUGE pills and you have to take 2 daily. There is also a "Hair skin and nails" formula from Andrew Lessman that you can google, that has great ingredients and is easier to swallow, made by ProCaps labs. You can also take large doses of Biotin, sometimes called Vitamin H, take no less than 2500 micrograms daily to support healthy hair growth. It may take 6 to 8 weeks to see results.
have taken the GNC pills for 4 months and supplemented them with extra Biotin because they only have 1200 mcg of Biotin and you should try for a minimum of 2500 micrograms.
I am switching to Procaps labs capsules when I run out of the GNC because Procaps formula has more Biotin in a more pure form with more of the trace elements that support healthy hair growth.
I take about 5000 micrograms which equals 5 milligrams of Biotin daily and my hair is growing fast and thick and dark.
