Question about long hair%26amp;split ends???

The only way to really make your hair grow faster is by (1) lay off overprocessing [coloring, drying, straightening, etc] (2) get regular trims to take the damaged ends off [hair will keep break up the shaft if you don't get it taken care of].

When I was trying to grow mine out I read that you can take kelp supplements [you can get them at health food stores]. I noticed a little difference but it's nothing dramatic. Just take care of your hair with trims and limiting processing.

If your hair is highlighted or not its natural color, dye it as close to your natural color as you can and let it grow out before you do anything else.

Good luck! But remember that your hair only grows 1/2"-1" every month... so as long as you take care of it it will have steady growth.

Trim it every six months and make sure that your hair stylist does not trim too much. They have a tendancy to do that. Eat healthy food like avocados, and your hair will eventually become healthier. My hair is at my bellybutton. People ask me all the time if it is hard to mainatin it, but it really isn't. I'm used to it. I love to take care of my hair. i suggest you do research on good shamppos and conditioners and healthy food for your hair. I did that, and my hair is just fine.

Yes you should trim it. There is no way to fix split ends. If you don't keep them trimmed up, they will just keep splitting which means you will have to get more trimmed off later. You should trim your hair every 6-8 weeks.
