Any tips on growing my hair?

I have naturally curly hair and I am looking for ways to help me grow it out.

@harperf2 I also have naturally curly hair. Some things that have helped me are to get trims at my hair salon and tell my hairdresser that my goal is to grow out my hair. I started to use less heat on my hair. I stopped bleaching my hair. I take hair vitamins and use a satin pillow case. I also use scalp oil. I try to avoid putting my hair in tight elastics often.I hope this helps!

I found scalp oils very helpful in growing out my hair. I love these two,

#The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Serum for Hair Density 2 oz/ 60 mL 

Or

#OUAI Hydrating Scalp Serum for Healthy, Fuller Looking Hair 2 oz / 60 mL 

I have used both of these (not at the same time) and my scalp felt more healthy, less itchy and I don't shed as much. Just two drops every evening. 

Out of the 2, The Ordinary's one is more affordable.

Another thing that has been helping me keep my hair long, is treating it more carefully when wet. You hair is much more fragile when it's wet and more likely to break. I try too leave my hair alone until it dries.

I hope this helps @harperf2

@harperf2  Are you using any scalp oils? I noticed since I started using a scalp oil my hair has been growing so much faster! My favourite is OUAI Hydrating Scalp Serum for Healthy, Fuller Looking Hair 2 oz / 60 mL
