Top 10 Tips On How To Make Your Hair Grow Faster - Part 1

The rate at which your hair grows is genetic and it normally grows at around a quarter to a half an inch every month.

You can, however, do things to increase the growth rate of your hair and improve on the thickness and the healthiness of your locks.

If you want long and luscious locks of hair, then read these ten tips on how to make your hair grow longer, faster and more beautiful:

1)      Using Hair Masks

As your hair grows, it is important to keep it in good condition, so you will be trimming your locks off again to get rid of split ends.

Using a hair mask is a great way to keep your hair looking wonderful.

Hair masks come in various combinations:

a.     Egg yolk hair mask

This is an extremely great and efficient hair mask, that will not only help your hair grow faster, but also will make your locks look shinier, healthier and even more beautiful: 

How To Make An Egg Yolk Hair Mask

Mix in a small bowl – one yolk of an egg with a tablespoon of honey, one tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil (or linen oil) and a tablespoon of Vodka (or Cognac).

Massage this mixture into the roots of your hair and then, spread to the lengths; wait for about thirty minutes.

For better results you can put a shower cup on your head and cover it up with a towel, but make sure that your special someone doesn’t see you wearing this extravagant construction on your head, as this might not look very seductive.

After the thirty minutes, wash and condition your hair, as usual. You will be astonished with amazing results, especially, if you do this mask regularly, once a week or once every two weeks, during one month or two.

b.     Coconut Oil hair mask

If you don’t find an egg mask too appealing, then try a coconut oil, sweet almond oil and honey hair mask. Simply mix these three ingredients in equal proportions, warm it slightly in a pot and massage the mixture into your hair; leave for about thirty minutes before washing out.

This wonderful natural hair treatment will nourish and rejuvenate your hair, making it shinier and glossier, while also boosting hair growth.

c.     Onion Juice hair mask

Onion juice hair masks can be really great in helping to boost your hair shine, as well as hair growth, but it smells pretty horrendous, and that smell won’t go anywhere for weeks!

This is the main reason why, I don’t suggest you using onion juice masks for hair growth, nor for any other hair treatments!

d.     Potato Juice hair mask

Here is another simple hair mask that will help your hair grow faster; for this treatment you’ll need some potato juice! 

Yes, I know, it might sound bizarre, but it works! Isn’t it the most important?!

At least, potato juice smells better, than an onion juice, for example. 

So, how do we make our potato hair mask?

Juice two big fresh potatoes, add a tablespoon of raw honey and one yolk of an egg.

Apply this mixture to your hair (mainly apply it to the roots), wait for half an hour and shampoo your hair, as you usually do.

This hair mask is amazingly effective and, most importantly, it’s all natural!

2)      Diet

Do you want to know how to make your hair grow faster? Eat protein! Not only our outside beauty efforts, massages and sophisticated hair masks are important, but also, if you really want to have thick and beautiful locks, then watch what you eat!

Did you know that food can make a tremendous difference in how fast your hair grows?

Protein provides a building material for your hair to grow quicker, look healthier and be stronger, as protein is the very stuff that hair is made from, so the more protein you eat, the more your hair can grow; so make sure to include eggs, nuts, fish, chicken, red meats, etc., into your balanced diet.

Eat healthy and your hair will say: ‘Thank you!’

3)     Brush Your Hair Daily

Brush your hair every day for 1 or 2 minutes, do it every morning and every evening to stimulate circulation in your scalp. 

Make sure to massage your head gently, it’s not working by the principle ‘the harder you brush, the faster it grows!’

Gently brushing your hair twice a day for, at least, two minutes stimulates the blood circulation in your scalp and spreads your natural oils evenly over your hair.

Healthy blood circulation is essential for hair follicles to work efficiently and grow new healthy hair. 

Remember never to forcefully brush your hair when it’s wet, because it can damage your locks and cause breakage.

We don’t want it, because we love our hair, right?! Instead, gently brush through your hair with a wide tooth comb or use a special detangling brush for a smooth and pain free detangling.

4)     Shampoo Your Hair With Deep Massage Of The Scalp

Massage your scalp every time you shampoo your hair; do it gently, use your fingers, massage your head for about a minute or two, push and move the skin around your head, and it will stimulate the blood flow in your scalp and help your hair grow faster.

5)    Keep Your Scalp Healthy

Healthy and beautiful hair starts with a healthy scalp…It’s logical, isn’t it?

This is why it’s extremely important to take a great care of your scalp.

Here is one easy tip: never apply a hair conditioner to the roots of your hair! 

Not only  will it cause the loss of volume and your hair might get oily very quickly, but also, some hair conditioners contain waxes and silicons and, if you apply them to your scalp on a regular basis, it can prevent the skin on your head from breathing and clog pores.

Conclusion: apply your hair conditioner only on the length of your hair.
