The hair on your head grows 1/4 inch per month. It feels like it takes forever and ever for your hair to become long again. There are so many myths out there of all the ways that we can make our hair longer, faster. The secret to long hair is keeping it healthy!
Here are some healthy hair tips!
❥ Do not, I repeat DO NOT rip through your hair with a brush while it's wet! When wet, the outermost part of the hair strand, the cuticle, is swollen from being wet and ripping through it with a brush will damage your hair. After your nice warm shower, use a wide toothed comb or pick to comb out your hair! You'll notice it even dries faster when you comb it out!

❥ Do not bleach/lighten your hair a lot. Bleach or lightener will also damage your hair. This one is hard because I absolutely love lightening my hair and putting in some highlights so this one, if you're like me, you just have to deal with a little bit of damage or breakage.
❥ Keep heat to a minimum. Constant straightening or curling can also be a factor in hair breakage.
❥ Be gentle when towel drying your hair.
❥ When you notice that your hair is dead at the ends or they start to split, schedule a trim. Yes, pulling your split ends apart in the middle of history class is more entertaining than which is actually going on but doing this splits the hair and damages the whole strand. A good trim will get rid of dead ends and make your hair healthier so it will grow!
❥ Scalp massages will stimulate your scalp, help your hair to grow and it will also keep your hair and your scalp healthy! And who wouldn't want a nice scalp massage? They're the best!
❥ Take Biotin. Biotin is a vitamin for your hair, skin and nails. I recently stopped taking it because I ran out and never bought more but it really works!
❥ Unless you have very fine, straight hair, there is no need to wash your hair every day. Washing your hair every day or twice a day will get rid of the natural oils on your scalp that maintain the health of your scalp. But of course when your hair starts to look greasy then yes, it's time to wash it.
❥ Don't wear your hair slicked back in really tight pony tails or buns all of the time because this strains your hair and will definitely cause breakage! Also, having your hair pulled back too tight will give you a headache and no one wants that!
❥ Using products like leave-in conditioners and argan oils will help your hair look and feel healthy. Especially if you lighten your hair these will help with the dryness.
❥ Pay attention to the hair ties you buy. Those new rubbery ones that they recently came out stay in your hair great but they also cause hair breakage.
I hope these tips will help you keep your hair healthy! In the mean time while your waiting for your hair to grow, follow my blog! See you soon! xoxo ❤❤❤
