Is my hair growinf ridiculously fast?

[ugh-why]

Most of my family's hair grows at most a few inches a year, but for me, it grows muh faster. I recently donated my hair and it brushed my collarbone in a picture I took no more than 5 weeks ago, and now it's over an inch longer. I tend to have lots of natural fats and oil in my diet, my family has salmon and avocado on salads a few times a week. Does this influence my hair growth? It does nothing for my mother or siblings.

Your age helps a ton. You're young, youthful and your body just wants to grow lol. Hormones can also be a factor of growth and by your age, most likely! A healthy diet also promotes healthy hair and hair growth as well as exercise. Your own genes help as well, you're probably lucky haha

A good diet definitely promotes hair growth however could just be genetics, and you are young too. You don't do anything damaging to your hair.. therefor your hair will grow faster.

"a few inches a year" , hair in your family must grow very slowly lol
Anyway, An inch longer in no longer a week , ehk , you're a teenager , things tend to grow faster.
