Remember that it can’t grow overnight. Unless your scalp unleashes new strands like a Chia pet, gaining new length is going to take time. Hair typically only grows about a quarter of an inch to a half an inch maximum a month.
Although getting regular trims to snip splits won’t make your hair actually grow faster. It will keep tips looking healthy and prevent splits from working their way up strands, requiring you to chop hair off more often. If you wait so long that splits are causing your hair to break off high up on the strand and your hair will actually be shorter than if you get consistent trims.
If your hair is wet, that means you have to condition it. Over time from coloring and heat styling strand starts to get thinner at the bottom. Conditioner helps replace the lipids and proteins inside the hair shaft as well as seal the cuticle to help prevent more damage from happening so that you can get your hair to grow longer and look healthier.
Don’t brush your hair while it is wet. Wet hair tends to stretch and break more easily than dry hair. If you need to detangle it, use your fingers and a wide toothed comb to gently work through the tangles. Doesn’t blow dry your hair except for special occasions? Blow drying often really does cause damage in the form of breakage, frizz and split ends and it is not easy to repair. You just have to wait for fresh hair to grow out. Try natural methods to curl your hair without heat or to straighten it without heat.
