What is good to help black women help grow out their hair?

my friend told me that there is this pill called Biotine, that you can buy over the counter and take and it helps hair grow. I am trying to get it back healthy and long. I once had it that way. I have a good grade of hair, I useto go get it done like every 2 weeks. Some say stay away from heat, some swear by getting it wrapped, washed and ends cut every 2 weeks also. I have heard of every 6 weeks getting my ends cut, wrapping it up before I got to be and using a silk scarf. Like I said before I have a good grade of hair, I useto take good care of my hair and useto drink water all the time that is why I think it grew long. Any advice as ro what to do for my hair to grow out?

You don't need to take any special pills to make your hair grow. If you're taking a multivitamin for general health then, that's okay but it probably won't make much of a difference. Unless you're malnourished or something, a healthy head of hair will grow about half an inch a month or more. You can use Biotin shampoo if you want. I did when I first cut my hair and found that it was good for getting all the residue out of my head from the heavy product that I was using. I no longer use that product or shampoo. Right now I'm using Motions shampoo. Just make sure that you get a moisturing shampoo and a clarifying one to use once a month for the residue. I use suave conditioner because it's cheap and I use so much of it. I usually try to condition wash my hair twice a week or every 3-4 days. I use shampoo about every 2 weeks. Alternate between the moisturizing shampoo and the clarifying one. The key to growing your hair is making sure that your scalp is healthly. Never scratch your scalp with your nails. Make sure that it's always clean, but don't overdry it. Just do what I said about the washing and you should be okay. Try out different methods and find what works for you. If you work out, you sweat more and will need to wash more often.

Good scalp care is just the beginning. A lot of black people don't realize how much their hair is growing or has grown because of breakage. A lot of breakage can be eliminated with proper handling of your hair. Don't be rough. I'd don't know if you're relaxed or natural, but healthy hair can be achieved either way. Whether you're relaxed or natural, you must have a big toothed comb and some detangler. (especially if you're natural) If your hair is natural, never comb it dry without detangler with a small toothed comb. You would just be pulling your hair out. If you're relaxed, wrapping your hair is a good low maintenance style that will help if grow and will call for you using less heat on your hair. Heat does damage your hair, so stay away from it as much as possible. Ponytail holder and rubber bands break hair too, so be careful how you use those. I actually never use rubberbands. Try to us scrunchies and make sure your hair is moisturized (not wet) if you must put it in a ponytail. There's a lot of other things I could tell you, but I've written a book already so I'll stop now. Good Luck :)

stop straightening your hair, and go natural for awhile. THen when it is long enough press it straight instead of creaming it straight. It will look better feel better, move in the wind, and wont be all greasy and grows.

This is coming from a black guy that hates black chicks ugly straight hair.

Do you moisturize the hair? That's a big thing when it comes to having a hair growth. If I would have known that oils by themselves don't moisturize I would have long hair.
