Hair growth is based on genetics, the health of you & your hair. so the only way to promote growth is to keep yourself & your hair in good health.

Do not just go taking pills (including biotin). You can end up with side effects serious enough to put you in the hospital. always ask your doctor first.

Some tips to promote growth:
get trims regularly (split ends will go higher up the longer you wait & then you'll have to cut off more hair)
drink a lot of water
use as little heat as possible
always use a heat protectant, I recommend It's a 10
don't brush your hair while it's wet
do hot oil treatments (I use coconut oil)
use a deep conditioner (I use Aussie 3 minute miracle)
use hair masks (store bought or diy)
try a leave in conditioner

keep in mind that there are no miracle products or methods. good luck in growing your hair! :)

I'm the same hair type
Unfortunately nothing can change the thickness of your hair. The rate of your hair growth depends on your health

Just remember to trim split ends, use mild shampoo, be gentle when combing and take care of your body

Do not take any growth pills like biotin, prenatal pills or ferritin without consulting a doctor because the body only needs a certain amount of these vitamins and you can overdose.

I am a hairdresser and it depends on your personal health that makes your hair healthy. Some medications can affect the health of your hair too.
