How to Grow Long Hair Tip No. 3




How to Grow Long Hair Tip No. 3 

Reduce damage from styling. Avoid excessive heat from blow drying or flat ironing your hair. 

Why this tip? Excessive heat to the hair contributes to split ends, frizz and breakage. Heat damages the hair by stripping the strands making them thin, dry, and brittle which in turn leads to split ends and breakage. If you must straighten or curl your hair, using a more gentle method like hair wrapping or rollers is a great alternative. In addition, air drying your hair or drying your hair with a dryer on the lowest heat setting or cool setting works just as well. Yes, it may take more time to achieve the look you want but the overall health and beauty of your hair will reflect upon it, you will notice it and so will others. 

And Second, the key word is "Reduce". We say reduce styling damage because saying reducing rather then trying to eliminate completely is a more attainable approach. Just like dieting, most people do not stick to it because it is simply not part of their normal day to day lifestyle but like dieting, if you simply start incorporating better foods choices gradually into your daily diet, then more than likely, you will stick to it and see significant progress. This same approach is also great for growing longer healthier hair, focusing on a more attainable goal is always best and of course more probable so to achieve a long healthy hair goal, start your focus on practice habits that will keep your hair healthy.

How to Grow Long Hair Tip No. 2




How to Grow Long Hair Tip No. 2

Wash your hair often BUT not too often. A minimum of once a week and no more than twice a week is recommended. For those who have naturally oily hair, you may need to wash more often but don't over do it. 

Why this tip? Maintaining a clean scalp is key to growing your hair. Washing your hair removes any buildup on the scalp that has accumulated since the last wash. Build up on the scalp can block the hair follicle causing the hair to not be able to grow out with ease. If this blockage occurs due to build up, we experience unnecessary shedding. Some shedding is normal due to phases of the hair growth cycle but if you want your hair to grow long, you must keep a clean scalp to prevent unnecessary shedding. 

It is also important to not wash your hair too often. Washing your hair too often will strip the hair of its natural oils and as a result of over manipulation it can lead to split ends, thinning hair, and again unnecessary breakage so if you want your hair to grow long be sure to maintain a clean scalp by washing your hair at least once a week or more often based on your individual hair care need but remember to not over do it.
