Best Hair Growth Products to Make Your Hair Grow Faster

If you've dared the chop and are missing your long lengths, are just stuck at the same length, or are struggling with hair loss - using a treatment designed specifically to encourage and promote hair growth is the perfect way to get thicker, fuller hair and speed up hair growth.

How To Make Your Hair Grow Faster

Keeping your scalp healthy and creating the optimal scalp environment is essential to healthy hair growth. Using a hair growth treatment as part of your haircare routine will improve hair density, thickness and fullness. You can also try these six tips to help your hair growth quicker, and thicker.

1. Use Caffeine Infused Hair Products

Not only can caffeine give you that much needed boost in the morning, it can also stimulate hair growth! Caffeine works by boosting blood circulation in the scalp which stimulates the follicles,  delivering essential nutrients for you hair to grow faster. Caffeine is also known to help with hair loss, blocking the hormone responsible for root hair fall, and therefore ensuring that healthy growth is maintained.

2. Use a Sulphate Free Shampoo

Sulphate found in some shampoos can strip the hair of it's natural oils that keep it hydrated and growing healthy. To avoid drying out your hair and scalp unnecessarily, use a Sulphate free shampoo that will hydrate and cleanse to maintain moisture levels that contribute to healthy growth. Water is also one of the main culprits in drying out hair, therefore to keep hair hydrated and balanced, try to use a dry shampoo in between washes.

3. Brush Gently

If not done properly, brushing your hair can cause breakage in the strands and pull on the roots, irritating the scalp. To avoid this, make sure to brush gently, avoiding pulling and tugging and taking extra care when hair is wet and at it's most vulnerable. Doing this will not only keep hair growing healthy, but will prevent against frizz, making hair sleeker and more manageable.

4. Take a Hair Vitamin

A hair vitamin or supplement can help to boost hair growth from the inside, providing your body with the nutrients and proteins needed for that extra length. Vitamins A, C and E along with Biotin not only protect the hair from damage but help with Keratin production, the protein essential for new hair growth. The formula also contains Coconut oil that hydrates from within, adding shine to your locks.

5. Use Less Heat

It's no secret that heat can damage hair. Exposing the hair to extreme temperatures and on a regular basis can dry out the hair and leave it burned and broken, causing strands to snap and reducing your length. Try to cut down on heat styling if you are trying to grow out you hair and opt for an up-do in between to give it a break from the heat. If you do choose to straighten or curl, apply a heat protector to your hair beforehand to prevent moisture loss and damage.

6. Use a Silk Pillowcase

Similar to a Microfibre towel, a Silk pillowcase is a much softer and gentler alternative if you are trying to grow out your hair. Not only does the material feel amazing against your skin, but also reduces friction, allowing your hair to glide across the surface whilst you sleep, preventing it from dangling or pulling which can break strands.
