I had thin, extremely damaged hair that was about shoulder length- now it's past my waist and incredibly healthy!

I take folic acid, have my scalp massaged daily (that's what boyfriends are for! Haha), only wash every second day and on each second wash, use coconut oil as a treatment

The easiest way to make your hair grow faster is to keep it healthy. Don't mistake me, the rate at which your hair grows is determined by genetics, and nothing you can do will make your hair grow faster than it naturally would at its healthiest.

First, trim any split ends. If you don't, they will keep splitting up the shaft and ruin even more of your hair.

Second, invest in a sulfate and sodium chloride free shampoo and conditioner (I like the L'oreal EverStrong, as well as Pureology, because my hair is constantly died and Pureology is great for maintaining that. Occasionally, I use the Garnier Fructis Pure Clean Shampoo, which is neither sulfate free nor for dyed hair, but it makes my hair feel SO clean, and that's not the worst thing once in a while), and a hair mask or deep conditioner (I like Macadamia Deep Repair Masque and the L'oreal Power Moisture Mask). In the shower, wash your hair first thing, shampoo only the roots and condition from your ears down. After that, apply your mask, focusing on the ends of your hair. Finger comb until you don't feel any knots, and then put your hair in a bun. Leave it that way for the rest of your shower, washing it out should be the last thing you do. I wash my hair around 3 times a week (with dry hair I can get away with it) and do the hair mask every time. If you need to wash your hair more than that, reduce your hair mask usage to 3 times :) make sure you're finger combing your hair in the shower so that you don't have to brush it, because brushing it can break it off like heck.

Third, in terms of heat protectors, I like the Tressemme and It's a 10 Leave in Plus Keratin. However, I advise you to cut out heat styling as much as possible (It's not the worst thing as long as you take care of your hair, so if you can't I wouldn't worry).

That's my hair routine, my entire head is bleached and it is just as healthy as it was before I dyed it.

I'm growing out my hair and it's about 6 inches from my waist. I started growing it out around July (that was my last big hair cut) and at that time, it was just above my boobs (sorry if that offends anyone). You just need to keep your hair healthy!
take biotin and fish oil (check with your doctor first)
I also take collagen but that's because I have a college deficiency.
Never brush your hair when it's wet. If you need to, invest in a sturdy wide toothed comb.
Use heat sparingly and always use a heat protectant.
Natural hair masks and store bought hair masks should be used every week for normal hair and every other day for damaged hair.
Moroccan oil and olive oil are amazing for your hair.
Drink lots of water.
Wash your hair every other day.
Wash your hair with cold water, helps close the cuticle.
hope I helped! 💋

What Hannah said. there is no miracle product or way to make your hair grow fast. it's growth depends on the health of you & your hair.

Real quick: check with a doctor before taking any supplements, including biotin, folic acid, prenatal vitamins, etc. At best, you are wasting money (if you are not deficient, your body will not absorb them and you are paying for vitamin-enriched urine); at worst they can cause dangerous overdoses or interact with prescription drugs. Some studies have found that taking prenatal vitamins for extended periods outside of pregnancy can actually hurt fertility.

Like Hannah said, the best you can do is be healthy. A healthy diet and exercise will help your hair more than any pseudoscience folk "remedy". Avoid damage, get adequate nutrition, and your hair will grow. Just be patient.

Really though, don't start ingesting random supplements without seeing a physician, you are putting your health at risk.
