How much time does it take to grow your hair from shoulder length down to your waist?

Question

I asked this question because I wasn't sure what is typically a normal amount of time to grow hair down to your waist. I've known women who had hair down to their waist who said it took them forever to grow it that long. My hair is actually down to my waist now, and it took about three years to get this long from being at shoulder length...it would have taken much less time if not for a hairdresser cutting off several inches at once. I have been growing it out so a wig can be made for a child...it's just something I've wanted to do for a long time. I figure I've never grown my hair this long before and I probably never will grow it down to my waist ever again. So the time is closing in on me for having my hair cut off! I'm a little nervous.

Answer 1

On average, hair grows 1/2"-1" per month. Taking a multi-vitamin every single day will help. Get a "trim" (just the very ends) every 3 months, so that your hair doesn't get too dry, and break off. This will help get your hair to grow as quick as possible.

Answer 2

Trust me, I know hair. My hair is one of my best aspects and all my hair stylists wanted me to model for them. I spend a LOT of money on my hair. First, you need to make sure that you're going to properly take care of your long hair. The worst thing in the world is having long stringy hair. The best thing to do is to have a good, easy, manageable hair style. With long hair I would suggest lots of layers and side bangs and you really don't have to put a LOT of money into hair care products. Use Suave shampoos and conditioners for your hair color or hair type. They work well and are less than $2 each. Also, if you blow dry or flat iron your hair, buy got2b crazysleek hot smooth flat iron and blow dry lotion. It's heat activated and it prevents damage, so it smoothes and protects. As far as growing your hair... I would suggest taking hair, nail, and skin beauty vitamins. It speeds up the process of growing long hair. How long will it take? Well, that just depends on you. My hair grows really fast; I just cut my hair to right below my breasts and it'll be at my waist again in probably one month, if that.

Answer 3

Hair grows a million/4 to a million/2 an inch a month So multiply a million/4 x 12 (months) = the size after 300 and sixty 5 days a million year in the adventure that your hair grows quicker, then do a million/2 x 12 (months) = the size after 300 and sixty 5 days. in case you want to alter the months, you may exchange it. :) wish this helps.

Answer 4

Hair grows at about 150mm or 6 inches a year - so I'd say a couple of years at least.

Answer 5

erm, also, it sometimes depends on ur age and ur diet.
ages between 16 and 24 is the time when hair grows faster.
ur diet is also involved as it may affect the condition of the scalp and hair, and the growing of ur hair.

Answer 8

My hair grows about half a centimeter every to .75 centimeters every 2 weeks, but everyone is different. but i actually wanted to just say how much of a douchebag that frozen cloud is, because maybe you want to grow your hair out for those underprivileged kids that need the hair because of cancer or soemthing. i dont know, but he shouldnt have said what he said.

What are you a hippie? Growing hair that long only makes you look shorter.
