5 Tips to Growing Hair Faster

December 11, 2009

Although the scientific jury is still out on making hair grow faster, there are several tricks of the trade that may work for you.  Many have advocated that these methods work, while others have had little or no success.  You may wish to try these safe methods to accelerate your hair growth.  If your hair is already thinning, what do you have to lose?

1. Drink Plenty of Water

Water is essential for the body.  It is also essential for hair follicles to receive nutrients from blood flow.  Most people do not drink enough water.  Try increasing your water intake.  Drink at least eight 8-ounce glasses every day, which is the same as three liter size water bottles.

2. Take Vitamins Supplements

Vitamins are important for hair production, and vitamin B is especially pertinent for hair growth.  In addition, vitamin E is recommended because it is an antioxidant and helps with the blood flow to hair follicles.

3. Eat a Healthy Diet

Eating healthy cannot be stressed enough.  If you want your hair to look healthy and continue growing fuller, be sure to eat well.  Your diet should have plenty of protein and iron.  These elements are needed for the production of hair.

4. Scalp Massages

Don’t underestimate the value of scalp massages.  They not only feel great, but they also stimulate blood flow to the scalp.  Many have claimed that scalp massages are only a myth to stimulating hair growth.  However, until this myth is proven wrong scientifically, it certainly is worth the effort.

Scalp massages can be given by yourself or by a loved one.  You can also brush your hair gently for about 5 or 10 minutes.

5. Trim Hair

Trimming your hair can also stimulate further growth.  You should consider a trim every four to eight weeks.  Trimming may not only help stimulate growth, but it eliminates split ends and also helps your hair look fuller.

Faster hair growth may not be everyone’s desire.  However, for those with thinning or fine hair, a faster production can certainly help keep hair looking fuller.  Try these tips and see which ones may work for you.
