Best tips for Enriching Your Hair with Treatments

Avoid wrapping your wet hair in a towel. Though you may be in the habit of wrapping and twisting your hair in a towel once you get out of the shower, doing this can cause breakage and put stress on the strands of your hair. Wet hair is particularly fragile, so substitute the post-shower towel wrap with a gentle pat down using a dry towel.

• If you like to wrap your hair in a towel, you can try using thin towels and soft microfiber towels. These towels are made of a material that is gentle on your hair and dries it well without breakage.

Brush your hair before bed. Over-brushing your hair every day can actually be bad for your hair and lead to poor growth. Instead, use a boar bristle brush a few times through your hair before bed. This will help to distribute the oils in your scalp onto your hair so it stays moisturized, naturally.

• Start at your scalp and use even strokes to go through each section of your hair at least once.
• Brushing once a day before bed can also increase circulation on your scalp, which can improve its health and encourage hair growth. Though brushing your hair is not scientifically proven to lead to faster hair growth, it can help to improve the overall health of your hair.

Avoid hot styling tools. One of the most common ways you can damage your hair and hinder its ability to grow is to use hot styling tools like hair dryers, hair straighteners, and hair curlers. Try to cut back on your use of them or cut them out of your hair care routine completely. Go for more natural looking locks so you do not get in the way of healthy hair growth.

• If you do use hot styling tools, you should use them on a low heat setting and use a heat protectant gel, cream, or spray to avoid damaging your hair.

Get your hair trimmed. While it may seem counterintuitive, getting your hair trimmed can actually help it grow faster and healthier. Trimming your hair regularly will prevent split ends from working their way up the strands of your hair, which will reduce the need to get your hair cut. Split ends can cause your hair to break off high up on the strand, leading to shorter hair and more trips to your stylist.

• Your hairdresser should trim ⅛ of an inch (3 mm) off your hair every 6 to 8 weeks to prevent the development of damaging split ends. Try to schedule consistent appointments with your hairdresser so your hair stays healthy and free of split ends.
• How often you need to get a trim will depend on how fast your hair grows and how damaged the ends are.
• Your hair generally grows 1/2 inch every month, so if you just trim a little every 3 months or so, your hair will still be growing faster than you cut it. However, getting regular trims will prevent the ends from splitting, so your hair will stay healthier as it grows.

Take hair-boosting supplements. A multivitamin that is formulated to improve your hair may be a good option if your diet is not supplying enough hair boosting nutrition. Look for vitamins labeled “for hair,” such as biotin tablets, which contain key vitamins like biotin, vitamin C, and vitamin B that support hair health. These supplements can help your hair grow faster and healthier.

• Before you take any supplements, you should speak with your doctor to ensure you are taking the proper dosage and the supplements will not interact negatively with any medications you are currently on.
• Biotin and other hair-growth vitamins may work differently or cause different side effects for different people.
• Look for supplements that have been tested by third party verifiers, such as USP, NSF, or Consumer Lab.
• One of the best things you can do to make your hair grow faster is to take vitamins. In particular, look for vitamins that come in liquid gel caps or gummies to get the nutrients your body needs to help your hair grow.

Eat foods that are high in protein. Increasing your protein intake will promote healthy hair growth and ensure you do not start to shed or lose your hair. Make sure your diet is a balance of meat, fish, beans, nuts, and whole grains.  If you are vegetarian, ensure you get enough protein through soy based foods, beans, nuts, and grains.

• If you would like to follow a high protein diet, it’s important that you choose your protein sources wisely. Avoid processed meats or full-fat dairy products, as these can lead to other health issues.
• Make sure you are also getting enough healthy carbs in your diet that are high in fiber and full of nutrients, such as whole grains, fruits, and vegetables.

Try the “inversion” method. The “inversion” method is when you invert your head so it is below your heart, stimulating blood flow that can then encourage hair growth. Lay on your bed and allow your head to dangle off the edge of the bed so your neck is supported on the edge of your bed. You should try to remain in this position for 4 to 5 minutes a day. Though there is no scientific proof that this method works, it is a harmless method you can try to encourage hair growth.

• You can also do yoga poses like downward dog, shoulder stand, or head stand. The idea is that your head is below your heart, leading to blood flow to your head.
• You can massage your scalp with coconut oil before you invert for 4 minutes a day to encourage hair growth.
• You may also want to measure the length of your hair at the beginning of the week so you can chart your progress.
• Come out of the inversion slowly so you do not feel faint or dizzy. At the end of the week, measure your hair again and note how long your hair has grown in just one week.
• On average, hair grows about .5 inches (1.3 cm) in a month. Even with these methods, you will probably only see a very small amount of growth (just a fraction of an inch, or a few millimeters) over the course of a single week.
