Long flowing locks are back in fashion, but the fashionable amongst you may not understand the science behind getting the elongated strands of hair that you need in order to attain the ‘in look.’
It is as much about looking after what you have as growing great hair anew. Any hair, even if what you currently possess is lifeless, dull, broken and thin can me made great with ample care and attention to detail. The evidence shows however that caring too much can have a worse effect than not caring at all.
Do you think it coincidental that the persons described in popular culture (Not PC culture obviously) as; ‘The bum on the street’ happen to in general have the fashionable hair you are seeking out? Excessive anything is bad, too much washing (Try not to wash your hair on a daily basis) excessive chemical usage (Use none if possible) Use of heated hair straightening devices, wearing your hair in contorted positions that place a degree of torque at the root (You will know when your scalp gives that pinching feeling.) All of these have a negative effect on hair growth, but besides doing nothing wrong, what can you do right?
Treat your body well and it will treat you to the best it has to offer. There is no more pleasurable experience than your loved one giving you a head massage, use this to good effect, and know that you are doing your future hair growth a welcome favour by promoting blood flow to the scalp, and giving your scalp the oxygen breathing block it needs to exhale with growth.
Cutting your hair at regular intervals removes the energy exertion the body wastes in maintaining damaged hair, what will grow back will be fresher and stronger so long as you are putting into your body the nutrition it needs for healthy hair growth. Taking part in fad diets that may make the pounds fall off but come with health negatives should be avoided. It is proven that quick weight loss has a negative effect on the vitality of the dieter‘s hair.
Staying active in particular being anaerobically fit, will lead to increased oxygenated blood flow throughout the body with the aforementioned positive effects. It is all about balance, yes of course you should not remove all of the little hair pick me ups you already have at your disposal, but do ensure that you use them more sparingly than perhaps you have been.
You do not have to flatter the world with drop dead gorgeous hair everyday, and if you go out to do that each day by unnatural means, chances are you will have less of it to work with in the future. Getting a healthy balanced diet is perhaps the most effective advice that I can give you here for getting the very most from future hair growth. With balance comes a lack of excess, with a balanced diet comes the nutrition your hair follicles need to produce effective growth spurts in their growth phases.
Consumption of B and E vitamins in particular will elongate the longevity of your locks, meaning that shedding is disrupted long enough for new growth spurts to add to your hair volume per square inch. Remember that treating your hair is one and the same with mistreating your hair, think like a ‘bum on the street’ for best effect.
If you cannot wait to get great hair there is always the option of getting implants or extensions, but that is not what you want now, is it? Hair only grows at an average rate of a quarter inch per month, so it is inevitable that patience must be applied to the game of getting great hair growth.
You can expose your hair to the sun which will make it grow faster, but be careful not to overdo it as thanks to our industrialised world the Ozone layer is no longer protecting us from harmful UV rays in the way it once did.
Above all remember this one tip and that is that less is more, unless of course you are going to go all out and eat healthy food or take additional vitamin supplements, in which case go right ahead on the right track to getting the growth of great hair up to the highest speed your body can muster.
