Want to know how to
make your hair grow fast and achieve long, lustrous, sexy hair? Well, so did I years ago when I bleached my relaxed hair and weeks later it fell out in the shower! Naturally, the incident was devastating for me; but that devastation forced me to do tons of research on hair care and has led me to some great tips on how to
make hair grow faster.
Proper Hair Care
Firstly, your hair care regimen should be as 'hair friendly' as possible. This is very important for faster hair growth, as your hair will not reach its maximum length if it is breaking at the same rate that it is growing. For example, if your hair grows half inch per month and you cut half inch per month due to breakage, it would seems as if it is not growing at all. It is therefore necessary to stop any breakage currently experienced and be gentle with your hair to prevent further damage.
Tips to minimise breakage are as follows:
1.Wash hair with a gentle shampoo. Many common shampoos contain harsh sulfates that can strip your hair and should only be used once a month (if at all) for clarifying. These harsh sulfates include; Ammonium Laureth Sulfate, Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate, TEA Laureth Sulfate, TEA Lauryl Sulfate, and Sodium Lauryl Sulfate.
2.Use both protein and moisturizing treatments for effective deep conditioning.
3.Crushed garlic cloves may be added to your conditioner to stop hair shedding
4.Do not brush wet hair
5.Air dry hair whenever possible
6.Use natural boar-bristle brushes
7.Wear hair up whenever possible to retain moisture
8.Do not use rubber bands or metal clips on the hair
Use Hair Vitamins for Faster Growth
Secondly, you should incorporate hair vitamins within your diet. The intake of vitamins and minerals play a major role in
making hair grow faster. Long, healthy hair starts with a well-nourished body and any nutritional deficiencies can lead to a slower hair growth rate and thinning. You should ensure that your hair vitamins contain the proper blend of nutrients such as Biotin, Vitamins A, B3 & B5 and specifically MSM. MSM or Methylsulfonylmethane is a sulfur supplement derived from nature that is required for healthy collagen and keratin, which are essential to fast hair growth. This organic form of sulfur is found in raw fruits and green vegetables and without proper levels of MSM our bodies are unable to build healthy cells. MSM along with other hair vitamins provide the hair follicles with the necessary nutrients needed to grow new hair at a faster rate.

Do a Microscopic Hair Analysis
Thirdly, you need to address any other hair problems that might be limiting your hair growth. A Microscopic hair analysis is an effective tool in doing this as it provides a depth of examination of your hair's current condition and solutions to any problems found. The analysis is made up of four individual tests; Bulb examination, Porosity Test, Elasticity Test, and Cortex Examination. These tests are effective in finding out what your hair really needs to achieve maximum health and growth.
