How to Make Your Hair Grow Longer and Thicker

How to Make Your Hair Grow Longer and Thicker Long lustrous female hair is generally considered attractive in many cultures. Although today women in most countries aren’t necessarily required to grow their hair long, many of them still prefer to. Unfortunately, it is extremely difficult to grow long hair if your hair isn’t healthy. Here are a few tips on how to take care of your hair for it to grow longer and thicker.

Let us make it clear from the start: if you want your hair to grow 10 or even 20 centimetres a month and believe that there is some kind of “magic pill” for this, then you will be severely disappointed. Natural hair growth rate is only about one or two centimetres a month, and there are no ways to speed it up tenfold. But if you have realistic expectations and are ready to wait until your hair grows long naturally, there are a few ways you can help it along the way.

To figure out how to make your hair grow longer, you should first learn about its growth cycle, which consists of three phases: the anagen phase (the growth phase, lasting three to five years), the catagen phase (the transitional phase, lasting about two weeks), and the telogen phase (the shedding phase, lasting from one to four months). The rate of hair growth, the exact duration of each phase of the growth cycle, and the maximum length of your hair are genetically programmed; this is why some people can grow really long hair and some struggle to grow it beyond shoulder length.

As a result, to make your hair grow as long as it can, you need to do everything that’s in your power to make the most of its genetic potential. This means sticking to a hair care routine that is tailored to your hair’s needs, as well as taking care of your health in general (eating a healthy, balanced diet, getting enough sleep, reducing everyday stress, etc.).

Your hair care routine should be consistent and include products that provide hair follicles with all the nutrients they need, protect your hair from the environment, and prevent brittle hair, split ends and excessive hair loss. Here are a few tips that may come in handy while figuring out the perfect hair care routine.

Cleanse Your Hair and Scalp Properly

Washing your hair may seem like no rocket science, but if you want to make your hair grow longer, you should follow a few simple rules to make your hair washing routine more efficient. First, you should buy a shampoo that suits your hair type and will cleanse your hair and scalp effectively, but gently, without irritating your scalp or dehydrating your hair and making it brittle.

You should apply shampoo only to your scalp to remove excess sebum, dirt and product build-up; your strands will get cleansed naturally when you rinse the shampoo off. The water should be neither too cold nor too hot. And, of course, you shouldn’t skip hair conditioner (which, unlike shampoo, is applied to the strands, but not to the roots) because it makes the hair smoother and more manageable, prevents breakage and split ends.

Minimize Blow-Drying

If you want long hair, you need to forget about frequent blow-drying, since hot air damages wet hair, and subsequent intensive combing leads to hair breakage and even excessive hair loss. When you finish washing your hair, gently squeeze out excess water and blot it with a towel. After that, let your hair air dry. When you brush your hair, start at the ends and work your way up to prevent tangling (and please don’t brush your hair while it’s still wet).

Use Nourishing Hair Masks Regularly

As we’ve already mentioned above, if you want to grow long hair, you need to make sure that your hair follicles get all the nutrients they need. This is what nourishing masks are designed for; they are formulated with various natural ingredients that make the hair healthier and promote its growth. These ingredients include, but are not limited to, vitamin A, B1, B3, B6, B7, B12, C and E, natural carrier oils (especially burdock oil and castor oil), ginseng extract, ginger extract, red pepper extract, and chamomile extract.

Massage Your Scalp

Scalp massage is good for reducing hair loss and stimulating hair growth, because it improves blood flow to the hair follicles and helps to nourish them and strengthen hair roots. You can massage your scalp with your fingertips or a hair brush. To make the procedure even more effective, you can use various carrier and essential oils during the massage. For a noticeable effect, massage your scalp 5 to 10 minutes every day.

The desire to have natural long, lustrous and healthy hair is relevant and understandable, even though hair extensions are easily available and affordable these days.
