My names Kevin and im 15. I posted a few months ago about growing my hair out. This is what it looks like currently: http://img365.imageshack.us/my.php?image=1009580zv0.jpg


I'm getting annoyed because it's starting to get poofy and 80's looking. Is this going to go away as it gets longer/heavier? Anything I can do in the meantime?

I want to grow it quite long, about shoulder length. How long will this take, and what can I do to speed it up? Cut the ends every so often? Leave it alone? Get it tightly braided? I can't wait to get some suggestions :)

Also, does my hair look like good quality/will it look good long/does it look like it's good for long styles?

I have been taking hair supplements for the past 3 years and here is what I have found.
GNC makes a tablet called "Ultra Nourishair" in formulas for men and women, the pills are taken daily, 2 pills a day. They are HUGE and very hard to swallow, if you have any trouble at all with large tablets, then I wouldn't recommend these. The 2 pills also contain only 1200 micrograms total of Biotin, which is the main supplement needed for hair to grow faster and stronger. You should try to get a minimum of 2500 micrograms of Biotin daily to improve hair's rate of growth and its condition. Even though I took these GNC pills for 4 months, I wouldn't recommend them because they are not the most high quality pills available.
ProCaps labs makes a great supplement called "Hair Skin and Nails" formula, here is the link for that
http://www.procapslabs.com/pcl/pages/pro...
This is in capsule form and much easier to swallow. This company, ProCaps labs is also extremely reputable and carries pure and effective products.
I took GNC's Nourishair for four months, and supplemented it with extra Biotin tablets daily due to its low Biotin content. I took 2500 micrograms extra Biotin with the GNC pills.
The Procaps hair vites have 2500 micrograms of Biotin in them, and don't really require extra Biotin be taken, but I do take an additional 2500 micrograms of Biotin for a daily total of 5000 micrograms of Biotin.
My hair is growing in thick and dark and quite quickly. My hair used to be very slow growing, but all of these supplements have really made a difference.
The only way to really change the health of your hair is by taking supplements that work internally on the follicle where hair is made, any shampoos or oils or other topically applied things do nothing to change hair's structure, that can only happen with systemically provided support, which means supplements that you take internally.. Keep in mind, regardless of how many or how much you take of any supplement, hair is never going to grow at a "Jack and the beanstalk" type of rate, the most you can hope for is to improve the strength and health of each hair follicle and to see an incremental increase in the rate of its growth.

Baby shampoo makes your hair grow out faster and I use it, so it really helps. It is also proven that it makes your hair thick and long at the same time...it usually works right after you wash your hair. You can find baby shampoo anywhere, like Wal-mart or CVS or Walgreens or Target. GOOD LUCK!

btw: my hair is really thick and long from using it :D

You can use Rogain, and or take Biotin, which is a vitamin that promotes hair and nail growth.
