People's hair grows
at varying rates and is effected by hereditary, health and condition
factors. Some simple checks to monitor if you feel your hair is
exceptionally slow growing are:
- Look at your diet, as it will
affect the health and growth rate of your hair? A balanced
diet will improve and maintain good growth. See
diet
and its effects
for more information.
- Your blood feeds the growth
center of each hair and stimulation or massage of the scalp
will encourage a good blood supply and therefore growth. Invest
in a scalp massage brush
and give your hair and scalp a through brush once a day.
- Regularly trim your hair every
6 to 12 weeks depending on whether you are growing it or not.
Split
ends
are your biggest enemy, once they start, your hair will get
shorter by the day as they break off, making you feel that
your hair never grows.
If the above have been
tried or you don't feel they apply to your needs then a personal
consultation with a
trichologist
may be the way to go for you.
