Answer 2

Condition, Condition, Condition. You must keep it conditioned. Also use deep conditioners. The only difference between regular and deep is that the deep conditioners use heat, which opens the shaft and allows the conditioner to penetrate. Hot oil treatments are wonderful. Keep your ends trimmed. Lots of times, people don't like to trim their ends b/c they don't want to cut their length, but it is a MUST! Even if you have to take more than 2 inches off, you must get the damaged ends off. If not, you the split tends will keep splitting all the way up, and you're hair will continue to break off. Also, try to avoid heat as much a possible. I'm not talking about blow-drying. I'm talking about the curling wands/flat irons, etc. It kills your hair. Something I've learned that works GREAT is applying Castor oil to your hair and the damages parts of your scalp. It's wonderful. Lastly, always keep your scalp clean!! Great styles to maintain healthy hair are braids, ponytails and any style that doesn't require too much daily maintenance. There are hair vitamins that I love called Hair, Skin and Nails. It comes in a brown and purple-ish jar. I buy mine at GNC. If you can't find that, use Shin-Min, another vitamin. GOOD LUCK!!

Always keep your hair washed and conditioned. Instead of blowdrying it out comb it out while wet (reduces hair loss) add some conditioner, and wrap it up. When it is finally dry it should have a soft healthy smooth finish. Keep hair moisturized, dryness will break hair. Keep ends clipped (make hair grow). Reduce heat to hair. Hope this helps. Try it for a while and see the difference in health and length.

...it's not that expensive, just buy good products once and use them on a biweekly basis and stick with the same products and eat a balanced diet and your hair will grow...now if you are looking in the mirror everyday to see if it grew then it will seem like it's not...just use products targeted toward your hair type and be consistant and you'll be fine...
...use products geared toward ethnic, relaxed hair because that's what you have and leave the perms or relaxers alone...

Answer 5

Cutting the ends DOES NOT MAKE IT GROW!!!!

It will reduce the ends breakig off, if yours are damaged.

Good shampoo and conditioner will reduce damage.

A good diet & drinking enough water to keep you body hydrated will help. As posted vitamans can help both nails and hair.

Answer 6

make sure you have a proper amount of vitamins a snd e in your diet. get your rest as hair grows fastest in the early morning hours as you sleep and wash well massaging the scalp. but dont over wash or dry so as to dry the hair out.
