It depends. If you just got a really bad hair cut, then hair seems like it does not grow at all, while hair that you have to shave every day seems to grow like a weed!
Ignoring these perceptual differences, human hair seems to grow at a pretty consistent rate of about half a millimeter or so per day, or about half an inch every month (this study quotes a specific rate of 0.44 mm per day). It may grow faster or slower depending on your age, your genetics and your hormonal state (pregnancy seems to have an affect on hair), but half a millimeter per day is a good average.
What this means is that the maximum growth rate for hair is about 6 inches (15 cm) per year. If you have short hair and are thinking, "It sure would be nice if I had hair down to my waist," then you are going to have about a four-year wait!

I do know that on an average most people's hair grows approximately a half an inch a month. This does vary. Some people have hair that grows faster or slower. If you go tho Wal Mart you can get over the counter pre Natale vitamins and taking those over a period of time will help your hair pick up the pace and keep you and your hair healthy. It's a win win situation! Good luck!!!

the speed of hair boom is nearly 1 million.25 centimeters or 0.5 inches consistent with month, being about 15 centimeters or 6 inches consistent with 3 hundred and sixty 5 days. With age the speed of hairgrowth would sluggish all the way down to as low as 0.25 cm or 0.a million inch a month.

there's barely anything measurable per day. Hair on average grows 1/2 inch per month. But sometimes it's more, sometimes it's less. It depends on your health and genes.

Hair grows about .25 - .5 inch per month. So, that's about .008 - .017" per day.
