So, you are hoping to be a six footer. Inheritance plays a great role but another factors have great influence as well. Simple things you can do to make your hope into high possibility:
>>Have a good balanced diet with extra good quality protein and calcium.
>>Have enough time of sleeping. The growth hormones are usually released and does its activity during sleeping.
>>Exercise regularly to keep all your system healthy thus growth will be enhanced.
>>Be emotionally stable as much as you can, it has great impact on growth.
>>Stay away from any environmental pollutants as this affects the growth hormones activities.
>>Keep out of smoking and any unhealthy habits and practice.
Do your best to achieve the maximum potential of growth, you are still at the stage where growing is still at its active period.♥

Ask your parents what age they reached their current height take that and add them together and divide by 2. If that number is above were you are now then make a graph of how much you grew from ages 10-15. The peak of that should be when that most growing see if you will grow anymore.

I'm about 5'6 and I already reached that size, when I was 14, so I don't think you will grow much more. I'm happy with my size, and I think it looks nice to be not too tall, for a woman.

Sorry dear, not much you can do. The bright side is most don't stop growing until around 18...you could still grow a few more inches. If not, learn to love yourself for yourself!

it truthfully relies upon on the wellbeing of your hair and scalp how long that is going to take. I recommend going to a salon that does scalp remedies. i've got been starting to be out my hair and those help your hair advance immediately. Then additionally use a salon type shampoo and conditioner to maintain your hair healthful and starting to be. :)
