How to increase hair growth?

[Anonymous]

i already drink a lot of water, take yeast, silica and biotin tablets, I also massage my scalp and I read making a headstand will also increase it a little bit because the scalp is better supplied with blood. does anyone have more tips?

Here's my answer: Stop believing that topical treatments are the answer. The problem you have is internal. Hair growth is related to hormones, which means you probably have a hormone inbalance. This is also a symptom of polycistic ovarian syndrome (which is not hormone-related). Either way, don't go to a regular physician. You need to see an endocrinologist. Blood tests will tell you why this is happening and then you can proceed with treatment. It sounds like you'll be given a prescription- but I also recommend acupuncture for this problem. Good luck!

-Take a multivitamin,it will provide a balanced amount of vitamins and minerals.

-Stop taking the yeast and silica,they won't do much.

-Eat a well balanced diet.

-Avoid stress.

well you are on the right track to growing hair

when I was not eating so much red meat and eating a lotta fruits and veggies and working out A LOT my hair grew like weeds

also your hair grows much faster in the summer time

oh yeah and eating foods with onions in them helps too because of the chemical in it

I think it has to do with genetics. Not much you can do sorry )=

But I've heard about that shampoo that makes your hair grow long in like 7 days? I don't know if it works, but it's worth a shot..

You can't really change it. Some people naturally grow hair faster than others and vice versa. Of course keeping a healthy balanced diet is important, but you can't change anything significantly.

Take prenatal vitamins, sounds weird but I take them also. They have high folic acid which helps hair growth

working out helps hair growth alittle too

Avoid conditioners.

Really?why? I just use natural cosmetics and my hair would look terrible without conditioner

Last line got cut.

As long as the product contains zero paraffin and all the ingredients are natural you're not causing any significant damage.

Did you know your hair needs to breath? It's actually an extention of the epidermis or skin.

So why do you think conditioner would be a problem?

Conditioner coats the hair in order to tame it.

There are really no ways to force hair to grow beyond pre-natal vitamins, also good for your nails....which by the way is hair of a stronger sort.
