How to grow your hair faster

Hair grows on average a little less than half a millimeter, which is about a monthly centimeter and a dozen centimeters a year. However, not all people hair grow at the same rate since there are several factors involved in hair growth.

How to help your hair grow stronger and stronger

Beyond the many remedies that  advertise hair growth 2.0 from their website  portals, recommeding the  use of  very expensive products that have no influence on  the growth or strengthening of hair follicles, the truth is that there are a series of habits that  can determine both the speed at which our hair grows and its  healthiness.

The first  is closely related to our health. Often,  hair loss hides some unknown internal problem or appears as a result of a treatment or after taking  a medicine. Hence it is fundamental  to consult  a specialist at the slightest symptom that our hair is not growing at the same rate at which it falls.

In the same way that our state of health influences our hair look, so do our daily habits, such as food and hydration. Indeed  the lack of vitamins or Omega 3, among the other substances that are  contained in  food, causes a  weakening  of our hair  growth.  The  same thing  happens with hydration, since the water deficit seriously damages  our hair’s  health.

It should be noted  that also the intake of pre-cooked products or foods with  hydrogenated  fats does not help in this sense.

Another  habit  we should avoid is the  use of  hair dryer or curling iron.  They are tools  that damage the  follicle roots, causing them to grow weakened, to  fall earlier and, in the most severe cases, to damage the structure that  hosts and feeds our hair.

One more thing that  damages our hair  is the use of hair dyes.  We particularly refer to those industrial that are more aggressive, since lately they have appeared  new natural dyes that are able to offer the same service as the old ones, but without attacking our   hair follicle core.

Nor   does it   help  to  wash  our hair every day and use  very hot water, since an  excessive  washing and very hot water weakens our hair health. Hence, specialists recommend washing  hair every two days and  scalp every three days, as well as using warm or cold water.

Another of the  habits that  helps  to take care of our hair and grow strong is to perform daily hair massages  for  about 15 minutes. These should always be done gently and with   fingertips.

If even with these daily habits we cannot stop hair  fall, we  have to consult  a specialist as soon as possible to know  what is the best way to recover the strength of our hair and,  if  it fell, to recover it.
