Many dream of having long, beautiful, flowing hair, but getting there can be challenging. Frustration often happens when the right steps aren’t followed. To guide you on your journey to stunning hair, here’s everything you need to know to make it grow.
Get A Trim
It can be scary to get a haircut when you are trying to grow your hair, so instead, ask for a trim. Getting rid of the split ends on your hair is important, as they can cause breakage and damage to your hair shaft. A trim will clean up any split ends while also getting rid of frizz. Once the split ends are removed, your hair will grow faster since the damage will be removed.
Use Heat Protectants
Heat protectants shield your hair from heat sources, including hair dryers, curling irons, and straightening irons. Not only do they protect your hair from damage, but they also help it grow faster. They are easy to apply, too; you simply spray them on when your hair is damp but almost dry, then brush them through. Heat protectants can also make your hair shinier and healthier, which is a bonus.
Increase Your Protein Intake
Protein is so important in everyday life, but did you know it can also help you grow your hair? Keratin, a protein that makes up your hair strands, fingernails, and skin, benefits from increased protein intake. By boosting your protein levels, you strengthen the keratin, which in turn makes your hair stronger. Consider adding eggs, nuts, lean meats, and chicken to your diet to help you achieve your hair goals more quickly.
Up Your Hair Care Game
Your hair strands are delicate, so it’s crucial to care for them properly. Using a good hair care system is key to helping your hair grow faster. We recommend using strengthening shampoos and conditioners to protect your hair during washing, brushing, and styling. Additionally, adding a leave-in conditioner can keep your hair soft and healthy.
Let Your Hair Air Dry
It can be difficult to avoid a blow dryer, especially when you’re in a rush, but if you have the time, you should let your hair air dry. After you get out of the shower, wrap your hair with a towel to absorb the moisture. Once it’s damp, lightly brush it and let it air dry. While using heat from a blow dryer is acceptable with a heat protectant, it’s best to avoid using it every day.
