this isnt an question. its an ANSWER to prbly the most common question on here. "hair"?
i've seen soo many posts from people asking how they can make their hair grow longer or be healthier. and im just going to post this in hopes people will get all the answers they need right here.
first off, theres not "proven" way to make your hair grow faster. or so they say. but it never hurts to make it healthier. it just makes sense that healthier hair would grow at least SOMEWHAT faster than non healthy hair. so here are some tips:
1) take vitamins!!! E & B vitamins are especially good for your skin/hair. also try "hair skin and nails" vitamins. and you also might want to try some biotin. but remember, take these all in moderation. don't overdose.
2) chop off those split ends! people say you should get a haircut ever 4-6 weeks, but everyones hair is different. you should just get a trim whenever the ends of your hair seem frayed or you have split ends. that doesn't mean you have to take off 2 whole inches, maybe just 1/2 an inch or even less.
3) try and minimize heat damage. if you can, let your hair air dry naturally. and try and lay off straighteners and curlers. your hair doesnt have to look perfect EVERY day. personally, i just put some mouse in my hair and let it go natural and only use heating tools for special events.
4) eat a healthy diet. healthy you = healthy hair
5) try and deep condition once a week.
6) massage your scalp while in the shower. this stimulates blood flow in the scalp.
7) if you're going out into the sun, add a product that protects your hair from UVA/UVB rays. or wear a hat.
8) find a shampoo/conditioner that effectively moisturizes (sp?) your hair. i used to try and research shampoos before i bought them....but soon realized online reviews are POINTLESS. everyones hair is different. what may work for someone else might be horrible for you or vice versa. so shop around.
9) if you can don't wash your hair everyday. this strips the scalp of your natural oils and can leave your hair dry.
hope that helped :)
p.s. washing your hair with vinegar every few weeks makes it shiny
p.s.s. avocado or maynoise hair masques never hurt either ;)
how long to u leave shampoo on your hair?
I see all these shampoos that they sell at the store come with all the minerals and vitamins and proteins too. But how long do you leave the shampoo on your hair so you can get all the health benefits of the shampoo if any. Usually I leave the shampoo on my hair for 40 seconds before I rinse it off. ALso what is a mane and tail shampoo for, i see the picture of the horse on the label.
what will help my hair grow?
in high school my hair was about 2 inches below my shoulders. I'm going to be a junior in college and my hair is now about 2 inches above my shoulders. When I was in my second semester of my freshman year I got a really cute bob hair cut that was pretty short. my hair has definitely grown out from that but I'm having trouble getting it past my shoulders. I feel like every time I go to the hair dresser and they "trim" my hair it gets chopped off even though i say i just want a trim.
I am currently taking hair skin nail vitamins, I take calcium, a multi vitamin and my hair dresser recently told me to try prenatal vitamins.I'd like to know things that have worked and have not worked so I don't waste time and money. It can be a home remedy or something you have bought. thank you!!!
I forgot to mention that I use Paul Mitchel shampoo, conditioner, heat protectand spray and straightner. I also use redken deep conditioning treatment and I color my hair blonde by a professional but not with bleach. any shampoos or other products that are better please let me know =)
is it better to use matching shampoos & conditioners, or can you mix it up?
well I have NEVER been one to use matching shampoos and conditoners. i pretty much always mix it up, because I like a shampoo but then I already have a conditioner I love, so I'll use one brand of shampoo and another brand of conditioner.
But I always read that for "best results" you should use the whole collection of a hair care line , not just one piece of it. Is that really true, or are they just saying that to get you to buy more of their stuff? will my hair really be affected if I use UMBERTO Beverly Hills Conditioner while using VITAMIN Hydrating Shampoo?
What do i do about my damaged hair?!?
Ugh. Alright well my hair had always sucked. So I started straightening it 2 years ago. Everyday. I also got highlights. Yeah life sucked for me. So I got it cut and started straightening it sometimes and using gel sometimes to have it curly. Only to find out I guess gel dries out your hair too? I have tried to leave it down, but like I said my hair looks horrible when I don’t do anything to it. It’s like wavy, but poofy, frizzy and like a dang afro. It looks great when I straighten it, until you get too close and see the damage! I’ve tried every single heat protectant there is out there and nothing works! I used all the vitamin enriched conditioners and shampoos or whatever. I just got my hair cut again because it got crazy long, and it’s still damaged! Not as bad anymore of course, but still. & at the moment I use this deep conditioner twice a week. I leave it in for 30 mins and then rinse it out after I shower. Also, I use this thing that’s a miracle leave in product after I wash my hair. I put it Redken Anti-snap and Chi straightening guard. When I straighten my hair, I use this flat iron spray, and I use A LOT of it. I’ve been trying so hard to prevent my hair from becoming anymore damaged! I’m not sure whether it’s working or not!
Does anybody have any ideas of what I can do for my hair? Nothing too pricey! I need some serious help. By the way, I die my hair every now and then, the stuff you can buy at walmart. I’m stopping that right away because I bet it makes it worse too. Is there like anything I can do to make my hair look good without using heat or gel/mousse? & no, I don’t wear my hair up, I look stupid with my hair in a pony tail. So that’s not an option for me!

Why isn’t my hair growing? Shampoos?
Hey everyone,
My hair is a little past my shoulders, and I really want to grow it out. I have a healthy balanced diet, and i eat pretty healthy. I have volleyball three times a week and we do intense drills so I get a lot of exercise and I am very in shape. I take vitamins, and I wash my hair every day, if not then every two days.
I got my hair cut on about the 30th of august, but it doesn't seem to be growing at all, if so then not a lot.
Why isn't my hair growing? What can I do to make it grow faster? Are there any shampoos specially for growing hair?
I also keep my hair well trimmed and don't damage my hair much with straighteners and chemicals.
Please help, respond accordingly.
Thanks!
PS - I don't want to take any weird pills or anything, but if there are any regular vitamins that I could just buy at the drug store that help with hair growth, that would be great.
Which is the Best Shampoo to Use?
What shampoo is the best to use for my type of hair (I have African American hair, kinda like Bob Marley, it's black, curley, kinky and nappy) it's not dreaded up but it's locking up itself, right now it's a nappy fro, because I don't pick it nor comb it.
I just want to leave it the way it is, but it is so thick and strong, what shampoo will best clean it and style it.
Should I use Head & Shoulders (They say it removes dandruff but doesn't all shampoos do that if used daily)
how bout herbal essences i am curious cuz i like their design and it smells awesome
and tresemme they say it's used by professionals but does that mean it's good, i used it before and it made my hair look pretty nice, but is their anything better
what's all of this i hear about shampoo with vitamins and nutrients and junk, and what about the shampoo's that say moisture rich or anti breakage, what's all that about
and i don't want to use a shampoo that will make my hair look and smell great but in the end i start to go bald,
what shampoo with keep my hair soft, clean, smelling great, clean, stylish (make my hair look moisture instead of dry) clean and healthy
WHAT IS THE BEST SHAMPOO TO USE
