If you're recovering from a bad hair cut or just simply lust over long locks, let us give you the low down on how to make your hair grow faster. These few steps will help speed up the tedious process of natural hair growth for LONG, happy and healthy hair!
How to Make Your Hair Grow Faster
On average, the rate of hair growth is only around half an inch a month. While theres no miracule cure for immediate or excessive hair growth, their are several steps that will help speed up the tedious process of natural hair growth.
Haircare - Products and maintenance
One of the most vital steps in quickly growing long tresses: haircare. If your hair is dry and damaged, natural hair growth is hindered. Simple, right? To boost hair growth, hydration and damage control will become key elements in your haircare routine! Quick tips:
-
Introduce weekly deep penetrating, conditioning hair masks. The added moisture will promote healthy and hydrated hair to generate faster growth. See our previous blog post on our holy grail, natural hair mask here.
-
Brush carefully! The breakage from aggressive and careless brushing halts the growing process. Try avoid brushing your hair whilst its wet - the hair follicles are open and are more prone to damage
-
Space out hair washes Frequent shampoo and conditioning can remove the natural oils of your hair. As hydration is key - the natural oils your hair produce are actually important to keep your hair from becoming dry and brittle.
-
Go heat free! Stay away from heat as much as possible. For those girls who can't live without their straightener, apply a heat protectant before styling.
Health and wellbeing
Sticking to a healthy diet will not only nourish your body. It will nourish your hair too! Take a look at your diet and water intake - wholegrains, foods rich in calcium and plenty of water will help nurture happy and healthy hair. Not only will this benefit your overall health, fueling your body with a healthy diet and water will help fosture long, lustrous locks. So, what are you waiting for?
Trimming those ends!
Ironically, the practice of regular trims is a common answer when asking how to make your hair grow faster. How, you may wonder?! Of course, cutting your hair will remove length and technically not speed up growth. It will, however, prevent breakage and promote overall healthy hair to make the hair grow at a quicker rate. At ZALA, we recommend getting regular trims to remove those split and damaged ends.
Supplements
Haircare from within! A much overlooked factor when asking how to grow your hair faster. Much like the topical treatments you give your hair, supplements are packed full of goods to foster lustrous locks. Try taking a multivitamin to boost bioton and iron levels. These nutrients have been proven to not only encourage the rate of hair growth, but to add moisture and shine!
And of course, our favourite at ZALA ;) Hair extensions will definitely not speed the growth of your locks, but they will definitely make the process a lot easier. We love the instant added volume and length hair extensions provide. Perfec to give a quick fix of mermaid-esque locks whilst you grow your natural hair to a comfortable length.
