longer hair
In this article I want to show you how Growing longer hair is not only possible but very easy to do with the right knowledge and tools.
In order to understand hair growth, you need to know a few facts. First know that your hair is dead, that is right it is dead and there is nothing you can do to make hair that has already grown grow any faster. We can however encourage the growth of new follicles within our genetic limits. Hair grows at a rate of one half to three quarters of an inch a month. This number is an average and it can be improved if you follow these simple eleven steps.
- Consume lots of vegetables and fruits. You need lots of green leafy vegetables as they contain lots of vitamins and minerals that are great for healthy growth
- Avoid fatty and fried foods as they will hamper your immune system which will slow down the growth of new hair
- To get a healthy mane be sure to consume lots of walnuts, walnuts have been shown to be able to boost the Anagen phase of your mane growing capacity.
- Consume the following vitamins: biotin, prenatal pills, vitamin B, D and C
- minerals such as Silica and Selenium have also been shown to grow hair faster.
- To get a faster growing mane be sure to get some sun exposure, the sun is a good source of vitamin D and all you need is just 10 minutes a day.
- Always use a good deep oil treatment, the best one I know of is Mira oil as it contains herbs that have been proven to promote healthy hair growth.
- Give yourself a scalp massage. A good scalp massage is done by first applying hair oil to the scalp and then massaging the oil into the scalp. Use your fingers and massage your scalp using small circles and movements
- Avoid washing your hair with hot water, hot water weakens the hair follicles and loosens the hair pores which allows hair to fall out easily.
- Wear loose hair styles to encourage your mane to grow as long as you want- the best hair style to use are ones that do not pull at your hair and allow your hair to breath
- Use a boar bristle brush to comb your mane, a boar bristle brush will encourage blood flow to the scalp and this will help your hair to grow faster and longer.
