Hey buddy!, tired of that hair you've got that keeps on falling off or maybe grows really slow? . What ever the case may be, put a smile on that face cause your in the right place. Getting your hair to grow won't come as fast as you think. This is something you should have in mind, hairs take time to grow, sometimes a week or more. But don't let this weigh you down. Your case may differ!.
Getting your hair to grow real quick is all about fixing what makes your hair slow down at first, it may be hereditary, or maybe a deficiency, or something else. Different factors may cause this. Simultaneously, they'll be discussed here. Just access yourself, your solution will definitely be here!.
YOUR DIET
1. Consume enough protein:
Hair is composed of keratin, a protein made up of amino acid, if you wish for your hair to grow, you'll need an adequate amount of amino acid intake which is gotten protein. So consume enough protein if you wish for your hair to grow faster. Sources of protein includes milk, egg, fish, beans, there are so many things that gives the body protein. Just find out.
2. Eat vitamin C rich foods:
You need vitamin C in other to build up collagen (a fiber needed for development of new hair cells). You should also note that deficiency of this causes a dry, dull and weak hair. For better results, I'll advice you combine your vitamin C rich foods with iron rich foods. You can get vitamin C from fruits like orange, guava, strawberries and pepper.
3. Eat adequate amount of zinc and iron :
Zinc helps your body to repair tissues, this includes hair too, they also help to keep the oily glands around your hair follicles at optimum condition. Iron too do play a vital role when it comes to hair grow, it transfers oxygen to your cells, in this case, your hair follicles. This helps your hair to grow quicker. You could get iron from sources like lean meat, egg and protein. If your a vegetarian, tofu, lentils and beans would do the trick. For zinc, taking peanut butter, lean meat, oyster would be ok. Deficiency of these can result in poor hair growth and may even result in hair loose. However, if your suffering from deficiency of iron and zinc, I'd advice you consult a health professional so you don't worsen the case.
4. Take vitamin B:
This prevents hair loose. It's best you consult a medical professional to be sure if you actually have a vitamin B deficiency cause, there are other factors that can cause your hair loose, it may not be vitamin B deficiency. Although vitamin B is not scientifically known to increase air growth. But, it has been a solution to many, so just give it a try, you may be fortunate too. Get vitamin B from lean dairy, lean meat, lentils, potatoes with pill and banana.
5. Include fat to your diet:
Healthy fat!. They are really important when it comes to hair, cause without it, your body cannot maintain a healthy hair. It is also important because, it helps the body to assimilate vitamins like A,D,E and K, which are essential for hair growth. As always, "too much of everything is not good", so limit the amount of fat you take, I recommend unsaturated fats and fatty acids like Omega 3.
MINIMIZING STRESS
1. Avoid stress and maintain good healthy :
Stress both physically and emotional can slow hair growth, in severe cases it may cause hair loss. Eat well and exercise regularly accompanied with enough sleep. Because, if your body is stressed it won't have enough energy to use for hair growth and development. Rather it will use it to repair organs and maintain more important body parts rather than grow your hair. This will make your hair malnurished and unprotected from diseases. Trust me you don't want this, so better get enough rest and food.
2. Manage your emotional stress:
Learn how to be ahead of emotional stess like loss of loved ones, change of work, or worrying too much about anything. When this is resolved, you've opened up a new ground for your body to produce new and healthy hair.
3. Patience:
Like I mentioned earlier, hair does take long to grow. So, be patient, even after adhering to the things above, it'll take your body up to a week or even more to show signs of improved hair growth. Unless you barbed off your hair completely, then you'll notice it!.
STYLING DAMAGE
1. Moderate your styling :
Too much styling of hair may result in slower hair growth. Probably because the means you used is too harsh for your hair. Techniques like perming, crimping, curling, bleaching, adding of colour and straightening of hair either chemically and physically should be done at a reduced rate, maybe twice a month would do, as overdo can result in poor hair growth, loss and even thinning of your hair. Also, combination of these techniques can damage hair too or make it thin. Although it is reversible, it'll take time since hair grows slowly. Prevention is better than cure!.
2. Do not brush your hair too often :
Twice a day is just perfect. When brushing, take your hair as if it were an egg or gold. Dragging it may result in pulling it out completely from its root. So, take it easy on your hair. Try as much as possible to stay away from anything that'll result in pulling your hair, just. For instance things like, using of rubber band to hold hair backwards, making of hair styles like tight ponytail as they'll pull your hair too. You can ask your hairdresser for alternate hairstyles that'll not pull your hair too much.
3. Use hair products :
You should condition your hair more often and do little of shampooing. But you should note, overdo of this can cause hair to lose moisture, making it prone to damage. You should also apply oily products gotten from coconut, avocado, almond and olive. I would recommend argan oils as there are known to condition hair without leaving remains. You should also avoid rapping your hair in towels.
