There is no real miracle that can help you grow your hair thicker and/or longer. You can help by using really good conditioners and deep conditioning treatments, to help your hair grown longer and stay healthy. Frequent trims (about 1/4 of an inch every 3-4 weeks) will also help keep you hair healthy, which you will want if you are growing it long. Don't do too much heat styling (blow drying, curling, etc.). For the thickness, maybe try products like Nioxin. Or before styling after your shower, use KMS's Volume/Thickening cream products. They seem to work well. The main thing about it is keeping your hair healthy and free of split ends and dryness. Use good conditioning products if you must use heat on your hair on a regular basis.

Here is more advice:

  • Use Nixon it will thicken your hair and make it grow faster. Also take a vitamin called biotin good for hair, nails and skin.
  • Eat and drink tons of vitamins. What helped me SO MUCH was Yoplait nouriche SuperSmoothie. It's Amazing! My hair is a lot thicker, longer and shiner. People have even pointed it out. My nails have grown much longer to.
  • While products may make your existing hair LOOK thicker, there isn't anything you can put on hair to accomplish your goal. Hair is composed of keratin. That is the same substance as your fingernails. Both are actually dead tissue, but the hair roots and nail beds are living. So, like all living tissue, they can be nourished by vitamins minerals and other nutrients, which are carried by your blood. There are specific products on the market which target hair growth, but any quality multivitamin will help.
  • Trimming the ends (also filing the nails) stimulates growth and increases circulation. But the tip that works best is to INCREASE CIRCULATION, either by standing on your head, brushing vigorously or by massaging your scalp. Doing this in several 10 minutes segments throughout the day will yield the most benefits to anyone wishing to improve the quality, thickness and texture of their hair. It does wonders for your complexion too.
  • Actually too much brushing cases hair to break... so I wouldn't do it. By massaging the roots helps a lot.
  • Use Mane-N-Tail shampoo, its suppose to be used for horses but humans use it to, you can find it at Wal-Mart, it makes my hair grow really fast.
  • Take a protein content food and do regular trimming avoid chemical based shampoo and treatment avoid hot iron rollers and curlers
  • You can make your hair thicker by keeping your hair in braids and not putting so much heat in it. Too much heat will cause the hair to break off.
  • It is best to eat a healthy diet consisting of fiber and calcium. It is also key to exercise regularly and stray away from consuming alcohol or smoking. Regular trims are important (about every 6-8 weeks.) It is also important to massage the scalp and do not over shampoo! This cleans out your sebaceous glands and restricts the natural flow of your own oils.
  • Cutting off the ends of your hair doesn't actually help. What you need to do is take a multivitamin. They make Hair, Skin and nail vitamins that help your Hair grow. If you consistently take those it will help. Also try not to wash your hair everyday it will strip your hair off the oils and nutrients that help it grow. And if your gentle with your hair that will help for example instead of putting your hair in a tight ponytail try a braid.

No matter which hairstyle one adopts, the fact is that more than 95% of men and women admire long beautiful hairs. Although many give up the desire to grow their tresses long, most women struggle throughout their lives to get their hairs long beautiful and lustrous. While doing so most of us are in a hurry, trying to get locks straight down the waist within months or even days. In fact this is not a matter of days. One has to be patient and consistent. This may take years to get what we dream and we can be proud of. Here are few tips and practical guideline to grow your hairs long, beautiful and glossy.

First Rule for Better Hair Growth - Start Loving Your Hairs

Though most of us already love our hairs, even if you have never, start doing so. Do not compare them with others and degrade them. Love them just the way they are. Always remember hairs differ from person to person and there are so many factors that are responsible for their looks, promote their growth and determine their life span. These factors include genetics, diet, age, metabolism, hormones, ethnicity, medication and above all the care you show to your lovely locks. Try to surmount the ones you can, like your diet, medication (if possible) and your hair care.

  • Always be gentle to your hairs. Use good quality hair products and hair accessories. Brush you hairs gently and try to put minimum trauma while brushing and styling. Read more on proper brushing hairs.
  • Properly remove excess water from wet hairs with a towel (but remember to be temperate). Don't rub your hair vigorously with towel. For untangling wet hairs never use a brush. Always use a wide tooth comb to untangle wet hairs. Again the quality of comb is important, use natural bristle hair combs and brushes or alternatively you can find smooth wooden combs and brushes.
  • Start brushing or combing from the bottom of the locks then work toward the top. This way you can minimize the damage.
  • Allow your hairs to dry naturally whenever possible. If you are in a hurry, use a blow dryer at lowest possible setting. The intense heat from blow drying can cause split ends.
  • Do not use too hot water for hairs and scalp. It can damage the roots and promote dandruff. Furthermore too hot water can wash away natural oils from scalp giving your beautiful locks a dry fizzy look.

Second Rule for Better Hair Growth - Be Selective

Do not put what so ever you find. Always be selective. First step towards good hair care is to determine your hair type.Once you know what type of hairs you have, select the proper shampoo and conditioner that is "really" suitable for your hair type. Never use cheap or low quality hair products that can do more harm than any benefit. It is best to use all natural hair care products that contain natural oils these will help to restore their moisture. Do not skip the conditioner, it is important to maintain the beauty and shine of hairs. Though you can get many natural conditioning hair products, the beat option is to use a natural homemade hair conditioner. You can get a long list of kitchen items that can condition your hairs naturally and give them beautiful lustrous look. Never use any harsh chemicals on your hairs like dyes or styling products. If you want to grow your tresses really long and get them fast, forget these chemical based hair products. These products harm your manes more than any thing. If you want hair dye try to do it with natural products like henna. Again no hot irons or curling irons, these will weaken the hair roots promoting hair loss.

Third Rule for Better Hair Growth - Keep Them Tidy

Always keep them clean. Tangled hairs with unhealthy, clogged, and dirty scalp can never promote good hair growth. To keep them clean;

  • Shampoo your manes at least twice a week if they are thin and fine. For dry and coarse hairs just washing them once a week works best, while oily hairs may need to be washed daily to look healthy and glowing.
  • Another important step to give your hairs a clean and healthy look is to trim them properly and at proper time, for most hairs this time is once a month but if you have really healthy hairs you may do not need to trim hairs before two months or even more. But it is best to do so before split ends start peeping out of your pony or braid.This will help to promote faster hair growth.

Forth Rule for Better Hair Growth - hot oil treatment

Hair treatment with natural oils have enjoyed a prominent place throughout the history in almost every civilization. Although nowadays some researchers do not believe the efficacy of hot oil treatments for proper hair care, yet we must consider that thousands of years of folklores can not be false. In fact a good hair oil massage works as

an excellent hair conditioner, giving soft, shiny healthy hairs. It prevents the formation of split ends and promote hair growth. There are a number of massage oils that can be worked on scalp and hairs to get good results, the most popular ones are;

  • Jojoba oil
  • Olive oil
  • Almond oil
  • Coconut oil
  • Mustard oil
  • Sesame oil
  • Castor oil.

You can use them alone or in combination, except for castor oil that is too thick to use alone on the scalp and hairs. After applying hair oil, massage with finger tips throughout the scalp. This improves blood supply to hair follicles, making them healthy, preventing their loss and promoting hair growth. Let the oil work for at least one hour (over night is a better option), then shampoo as routine. You may need to wash your hairs twice or even more to remove oil properly. If you really want to grow your hairs long and healthy, give them a hot oil treatment no less than once a week.

Fifth Rule for Better Hair Growth - Eat Healthy

Our hairs are equally influenced by the food we eat just as any other part of our body. If we eat a healthy well balanced food full of proteins, all essential vitamins and minerals, we are promoting our hairs to grow fast and healthy. However an unfortunate aspect of globalization is the growing trends of fast foods which are high-fat, high-animal protein and high-salt diets that damages the kidneys and creates acidic blood, thereby leading to hair loss, according to Paul Pitchford's Healing with Whole Foods These junk foods also lack vitamins thus leading to vitamin deficiency, which is another obstacle to shiny longhairs.

Thus to make your hairs grow long and fast, you need to take lots of juices, fresh fruits, nuts, fish and green vegetables. A good vitamin supplement can help a lot.

Sixth Rule for Better Hair Growth - Protect Them

  • Avoid chlorinated or salty water. If you are crazy for swimming, always use a swimming cap or at least shampoo your hair after swimming.
  • Always wear a cap with brim or a scarf to protect from sunlight. You can also use a conditioner with SPF protection but these are usually not very effective.
  • Use good quality fabric covered ponytails to avoid any trauma caused by elastics. Always be very selective for the hair accessories you put to style your locks as much of the damage is caused by unsuitable clips and ponytails.
  • Braid your hairs and tie them in a pony tail before going to bed to avoid any breakage during sleeping. This also helps to decrease hair loss.
  • Never use electric appliances to your hairs, like electric rods, curling irons, hot rollers, or flat irons. Similarly avoid other chemical based hair treatments to prevent unnecessary trauma.

How Fast does Hair Grow?

This is the question that most youngsters are curious to know? While you are trying to grow your hairs long, they seem to be never growing, while if you want them short, they appear grow really fast. Is it true? In fact no, it?s just the illusion. The reality is the hairs grow at an average rate of about;

  • 0.44 mm per day OR
  • Half an inch or 1.25 centimeter per month OR
  • Six inches or 15 centimeters per year.

Your hair growth can also depend a lot on what you eat. Obviously a healthy diet helps a lot but there are certain foods that will encourage more hair growth, and also some that may inhibit it. By cutting out or adding certain food to your diet can have a huge impact on hair growth. A good guide you can buy can be found here

I would write on here some of the tips the guide gives but it would be copyrighted material. But although the speed of hair growth may not be quite as much as the guide says, its will definitely be significantly improved. It also costs a lot less than any 'miracle' hair products and will also last a lifetime. Strongly recommended for more good tips.

xOr you can just use a good conditioner. and try not to put heat and/or other heating products such as:blowdrier, curling iron, straightening iron, etc. The best thing to do is give it a trim every 3-4 weeks to make it long lasting and healthy. If you use a heat product to your hair on a regular basis be sure to condition it well.

Eat a well balanced diet with a combination of complex carbohydrates, protein and low fats. At the same time you need to avoid high sugar snacks. There are also good hair supplements out there like Reloxe that could help people with hair loss problem.

A bit more:

Hair grows at a rate of about 1/2 inch per month, and there is really nothing you can do to make it grow faster. But what many women think is slow growing hair is actually breakage due to damaged hair. When damaged hair breaks off, it can give the appearance of shorter, thinner hair. However, there are things you can do to help prevent damage to your hair.

Don't overprocess (color or perm too often), use the lower heat setting on your hair dryer and styling tools. Also, using heated styling tools on 'bare'hair (hair with no styling products in it) can contribute to the damage. Many styling products actually help protect the hair from the heat of the styling tools.

Use a ph balanced shampoo for dry/damaged hair, then follow with a good conditioner. Avoid products with alcohol as this can dry your hair and lead to further damage.

When combing or brushing your hair, work from the bottom up by first combing out the tangles on the ends of the hair. When hair is tangled, combing from the top down will make it harder to get the tangles out. But if you first comb out the tangles on the ends and mid way up the hair, it will make it much easier to comb without breaking the ends. Applying a leave in detangler first will help, too.
