Okay, let's get one thing straight. Unless you get hair extensions or wear a wig, your hair will not grow overnight. Hair growth is a slow process, but there are a few things you can do to speed up the process.
Here are 5 tried and tested ways to make your hair grow a little bit faster than usual.
1. Massage
Massage your scalp in the shower when you are shampooing your hair and also massage your dry scalp at least 1-2 times a week. Massaging your scalp will boost blood circulation which will lead to faster hair growth.
2. Rinse with cold water
With the exception of VERY few people, no one likes to take a cold shower. So, at the end of your shower rinse your hair with cold water for a few seconds. Hot water can damage your hair whereas cold water seals hair cuticles thus preventing damage and moisture loss.
3. Avoid the heat
We get it. There is no way around blow dryers, flat irons and curlers if you want your hair to look fab. Prolong the time between using heat tools as much as you can and always apply a heat protectant spray before using a heat tool.
4. Don't forget conditioner
Shampoo is great to clean your hair and get the dirt out, but it's conditioner that replenishes hair nutrients that promote growth.
5. Supplements
Over-the-counter supplements that are easily available in any local pharmacy can also boost hair growth. Look for supplements that contain biotin and do consult your doctor before you start taking them.
