Why does hair grow slowly

I often hear some women say with regret that their hair grows too slowly. It has not grown longer after a year, and it is not easy to change their hairstyle, so they are very distressed. But some people say that their hair grows fast and they always have to trim it to keep it stylish. Why does hair grow so slowly? This is of course related to various aspects, even to physical constitution. But there is one aspect that needs attention, that is, when choosing a shampoo, you must find one that suits you and is healthy and safe.

Why do girls' hair grow slowly?

The main culprit for slow hair growth: using harsh chemical shampoos

Good shampoo and conditioner have a lot to do with the quality of your hair. The scalp is like the soil, the hair is like the flowers and plants, and shampoo and conditioner are the fertilizers that provide nutrients to the scalp and hair so that the hair will grow well.

Currently, most of the hair care products on the market contain lauric acid hydrochloric acid, which is a chemical cleaning ingredient. Although it can wash away the grease on the head, it will also damage the scalp and hair. Long-term use will cause problems such as dry scalp and hair loss.

The conditioner containing silicone oil will leave a film on the hair. This film needs to be washed off with a stronger shampoo, but it is not guaranteed to be completely washed off. Here you can imagine what it feels like to have mineral oil covering your scalp? If this continues for a long time, it will form a vicious cycle of damaging the scalp and hair. How can hair grow in such an environment?

Solution: Use organic shampoo and conditioner

Create a safe and nutritious growth environment for the scalp and hair, and the hair will naturally grow quickly. I have been using Austrian organic shampoo for several years. If this type of shampoo contains rosemary, which can promote hair growth and nourishment, it will be better for hair growth and can also prevent scalp aging. This type of shampoo is relatively rare in China and costs more than 290 yuan.

What to do if your hair grows slowly

Change the way you wash your hair

Bad hair washing methods can affect hair length, such as the frequency of washing and the temperature of the water. Washing your hair too frequently and using very hot water will dry out your scalp and hair, causing your hair to become brittle and deteriorate, hindering hair growth and causing frequent hair loss.

Solution: Wash your hair three times a week, and the water temperature should not be too high.

Be gentle when brushing your hair

After washing your hair, do you wipe it dry with a towel? Do you rub it very hard? Then use a hair dryer to blow it dry at a very hot temperature? In fact, you are damaging your hair! Your hair will not grow long, and it will fall out easily and not become thick.

Solution: Do not rub your hair hard when it is wet. Instead, wrap it in a towel and press it gently to dry it. You can refer to the picture below; then let it air dry naturally, or use a hair dryer on a gentle setting to blow it until it is half dry.

Use conditioner twice a week at most - this is also the key to fast hair growth

There was once a research test: tracking and investigating the hair growth of people who used conditioner and those who did not use conditioner; over a one-year period, the hair of those who used conditioner grew twice as fast as those who did not, their hair was also much better than those who did not use conditioner, and they were not as prone to hair loss.

So I have been using conditioner all the time, I use Austrian organic conditioner, which I mentioned in the previous section about shampoo. The organic conditioner I use can be applied directly to the scalp to replenish moisture and repair damaged hair. If you use conditioner regularly, your hair will become healthy, soft, and smooth, and it will grow quickly. Avoid those silicone-containing conditioners from the supermarket.

Protect your hair from the sun

Ultraviolet rays can damage and decompose the protein, amino acids and lipid components in hair, and take away a lot of moisture. Excessive exposure to the sun can cause hair to lose its elasticity, become brittle and split, especially for hair that has been permed or dyed. The hair scales on the surface are open, and the area in contact with ultraviolet rays is larger, which can more easily cause hair to become dry, yellow, messy, and dull, and can also damage the pigments in the hair.

Pay attention to protein supplementation on a daily basis

Protein is the basis of hair. If you want your hair to be long, shiny and healthy, you need to supplement it with a lot of protein. When you eat, you need to eat more protein. Not only will your hair be good, but your skin will also be good.

What to eat to make hair grow faster

Supplement iron - eat more iron-rich foods, such as soybeans, black beans, eggs, hairtail, shrimp, cooked peanuts, spinach, carp, bananas, carrots, potatoes, etc.

Eat more vegetables and fruits - eat less liver, meat and other foods, because the acidic substances in these foods can easily cause excessive acid toxins. Vegetables and fruits are alkaline foods that can neutralize acidic toxins, so you can eat more of them.

Supplement plant protein - eat more foods rich in methionine and cystine such as soybeans, black sesame seeds, and corn.

Iodine supplement - good for healthy hair. Women with hair loss can eat more foods such as kelp, seaweed, and oysters.

Supplement vitamin E - because vitamin E can resist hair aging, promote the division of hair matrix cells, and make hair grow.

The fastest tips for growing long hair

Beer Shampoo

The correct way to wash your hair with beer: first buy some beer. It is best to choose fermented beer with wheat as the main ingredient, which is sold in supermarkets. Then put an appropriate amount of warm water in the basin, not too cold, but slightly hot, because you will also pour beer into it. Pour half a bottle of beer and mix it with hot water. This is done to reduce the concentration of the beer.

Now start washing your hair. Wet your hair directly with warm water mixed with beer. Then pour shampoo into the palm of your hand and rub it into rich foam, then apply it to your hair. Gently scratch your scalp for 1 minute, then rinse it with warm water mixed with beer. The second wash should follow the same method as the first wash. After washing both times, rinse your scalp and hair together with warm water to wash away excess beer. Note that it is best to wash 2 to 3 times a week. Then wring out your hair and apply conditioner, massage for 3 minutes and then wash it off. Finally, apply essential oil. As long as you do this, your hair will really change a lot!

There are many benefits of washing your hair with beer. In addition to removing dandruff and controlling oil, it can also make hair flexible and shiny. Beer contains rich nutrients for hair growth. Long-term use will make hair grow very fast. Many friends who have persisted for several months have said that their hair volume has increased.

Get your hair cut regularly: Getting your hair cut regularly is good for hair growth, because the longer the hair grows, the more damaged the hair ends will be. At the same time, the damaged hair ends will absorb nutrients from the hair and affect the rate of hair growth. Therefore, actively getting your hair cut off the damaged hair ends is good for rapid hair growth.

Keep combing your hair: Combing your hair two to three times a day can help promote blood circulation in the head and accelerate hair growth. It is worth mentioning that you should choose the right comb for yourself. It is best to choose a horn comb or a wooden comb to avoid damaging your hair.
