How can you make your hair stronger?

Question

I used to have such thick strong hair a few years ago(im 16)
and as soon as i got a good straighter for a long time that's all i used,
but i haven't used it in ages cause i stick my my natural wavy locks now.
I haven't had a hair cut in ages which is probably part of this
but its just stopped growing and it feels like straw,
also: whenever i brush it, so much comes out. (Ive got alot of hair though)
i play around with my hair sometimes, and i whenever i do strands of hair just falls outta because its got SO weak!
im getting a hair cut soon, is there any advise on how to get my strong thick hair back again?
I dont want to cut it short even though that would be best.

try hair oil; it really works! put it on at nite before bed and wake up and shampoo it off. usually coconut hair oil works the best but try others to suit ur hair

Answer 2

Yeah mine did that..try shampoos such as head and shoulders for damaged hair or any shampoos for heat damaged hair. Mine was back to normal in no time. Alternatively, you can try that olive oil mask, but I dont recommend it (sounds a bit disgusting to me).

Hi,

My hair was like this for ages, until I invested in some leave in conditioner, by pantene I got it from poundland (I'm not sure if you are from the USA or not..) My hair is lovely now I really recommend it , and it smells really nice :-)

Good Luck! :)

Answer 7

so try this...regular trims are a must, about every 7-9 weeks.(if your hair is really healthy then up the trims to about every 12 weeks, a trim is just a snip off the ends) if its been awhile since you have had a trim then inches may be called for to get to healthy hair. i use vitamin e on fresh washed hair.(its a vitamin that can be purchased where you buy vitamins, cut open capsule, squeeze into hand, rub hands together and apply to hair) dont message into scalp. if you get too much then just rewash it. hair will feel slightly sticky until dry then it will be nice and soft. it tames the frizzies, deep conditions and makes hair grow about three in a month. it takes about a month for the growth part of the e to kick in. the other benefits are instant. dont brush your hair but maybe once a week to message the scalp, i use a wide tooth comb at other times. brushing breaks off hair. i just started biotin vitamins going on three months ago this sat and notice and big growth spurt from that. biotin is cheap and also promotes hair regrowth and growth. i also have the biotin shampoo that i got from a vitamin store online. five bucks for a big bottle and a big bottle of E is about 8 bucks. the biotin is about 3 bucks. i now take my fingers and message my scalp about five times a week, along with the brushing thats a good way to do it without damaging your hair. apply two or three capsules of e to dry hair and message into scalp and hair really well, put damp towel in microwave for 1 min to get hot, then quickly wrap head, a dry towel can be placed over that to help hold in the heat, leave on for 15 min, makes an excellent hot oil treatment. good luck

u have to treat ur hair to deep mask every 3 days give olive oil a try for 30 min. hot mask will do u wonders.
what promotes growth -
not washing ur hair everyday but also not keeping it dirty more that 3 days. so the hair folicles can breathe but also get an anough amount of natural oils that come out of ur scalp to promote healthy hair growing.
castor oil massaged into the roots and tips 30 mins b4 showering works also.
try the shampoo like mane n tail maybe u will see difference but just dont over shampoo and make sure the shampoo has a balanced PH fomula
u can buy Biotin vitamins - great for hair growth
eat alot of protein, coz hair is all about how much protein u got coming into ur body everyday, trust me take good care of ur locks and they will grow.
never comb ur hair while wet just finger comb it while u got conditioner on yet.
sleep with a loose pony to prevent breakage. if ur hair breaks alot it means that when it grows from 1 end it breaks from the other so u never notice a difference so u gotta opt 4 anti breakage shampoos and conditioners and masks. good luck.
