I had naturally curly long dark hair that I had highlighted to practically blond over a gradual period of time. Then, once the blond was wearing out, I had my hair permanently straightened. BIG mistake...This was about 6 months ago. Since then, I've been living hair hell. My question is....It's now half curly, half straight and I can see about 3 inches of new growth. Shouldn't there be more than 3 inches of new growth in 6 months time????

P.S. My hair has been cut every 4 weeks or so since then too to cut damage off, so now it is about chin length but in long layers and shorter layers on the top - bad cut - so I've given up on hairdressers and am trying to just get it to grow back out. But, to look human I have to wash or wet and style daily at this bad stage. Is that normal??

nope, that sounds about right. your hair growns about a half an inch a month. if i were you, i would consider cutting it. maybe to your shoulders. start using deep conditioner (joico) a couple times a week too, leaving in for 5+ minutes. stop styling it, and just let it be.

Nope, 1/2 inch a month, you are right on target
