How to Make Your Hair Grow Naturally!

Hey ladies! Long time no post? I am trying! Anyways, today's topic is how to stimulate hair growth naturally. Everytime I go to my hair dresser, she always is surprised at how long my hair is because it grows so fast. I constantly have to trim my bangs because they grow out so fast and within weeks they are down to my chin! I never used fancy products back in the day, but since my perm, I have found my hair growth has slowed a little. So I've been finding ways to stimulate my hair growth without using any harsh chemicals or...the dreaded extensions. I also want thicker hair since the cold season is here, so here are some wyas that may work for you and I hope they do 100%!

TRIM

Every resource I used were very forward about getting your hair trimmed. If you really want to grow out your hair, you need to get rid of your split ends and breakage. It permits a more healthier growth in your hair, plus it makes it look nice and tamed. Not frizzy. As regards to length, just trim off the split ends. Don't take off inches upon inches thinking it'll grow back twice as fast!

TURN DOWN THE HEAT

I am pretty sure this is obvious, but just in case. Heat can do a ton of damage to your hair. Blow drying, perming, straightening, curling. These can all effect hair growth. Not only do it damage the hair, but if you use it every day, it could cause your hair to break. So minimize the heat products to 2 times a week at least. I'm very sure you will see results not only with your hair growth, but with the general health of your hair.

VITAMINS & MINERALS
Our hair is always in need of vitamins and minerals. There are specific vitamins and minerals for your hair, however, that promote hair growth! These vitamins include: B6, folic acid, magnesium, and zinc!

VEGGIES & PROTEIN
I cannot stress enough how the right foods can be beneficial to our skin and hair! For your hair, choose specifically green, yellow, and orange vegetables. They contain beta carotene which promotes hair growth and supports hair health. I personally love peppers such as green peppers and orange peppers. They add color to a dish and very awesome health benefits! You also need to get a good amount of protein in your diet. (Note: A healthy amount!!!) Protein levels a direct to the health of your hair. If you aren't getting enough of protein, there is no way your hair can have the strength to grow. Try eating some eggs in the morning. I eat a lot of bean dishes (especially when my boyfriend's grandmother is in town...) and my hair has grown some since!

DIRECT HEALTH
I want to point out to you guys how your stress can effect your health and beauty. Stress and lack of sleep can stunt your hair growth. Be sure to just relax and get 7 to 8 hours of sleep. If you want beautiful hair, you need to take care of yourself!

MASSAGE & MOISTURIZE
Hair can grow faster if there is proper blood circulation in the head and body. While you're in the shower and using shampoo, be sure to just massage your scalp thoroughly for a couple minutes before you rinse. This will increase blood circulation, allowing hair to grow more properly. Also, your hair may be dry from all the pollutants in the air which can stunt hair growth also. Use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner to help give your hair the moisture it needs throughout the day.

Now that that's settled, I do reccomend some products that I have been using to kind of volumize and help my hair growth by keeping it healthy.

My Shampoo & Conditioner

I use DOVE Damage Therapy Cool Moisture shampoo and conditioner. It has green tea and cucumber extracts which have done wonders for my hair. Plus it's affordable and easy to get. Every since I have been using this, I have seen my hair becoming shinier and less oily. Plus, my hair smells awesome. My layers are a little more defined and I can run my fingers through my hair without a tangle. Always nice, right?

My Hair Mask

Next is my beloved hair mask! Unfortunately, this baby is hard to get for me. I go through sasa.com to get it and I am far from disappointed with it. It is the Essentials Ultra Honey & Shea Butter hair mask. Everytime I use this product on my hair, I see more volume. I love having volumious hair because it helps make my face look...better? (For lack of better words...) Also, my hair just feels so much healthier and softer. It's an awesome product and I highly reccomend it.

Anyways everyone, that is all I have today. I hope you guys found this helpful!!! :) Have a wonderful week everyone! Stay safe and keep well! Be blessed~!!!

Thanks for reading~! <3
