I have short and curly hair. And ive been cutting my hair short ever since I was 7. And now Ive decided to grow my hair out. And it seems like it takes forever for it to grow out. And when it does grow out it still seems like my hair is to short. So my question is

1.What can I do to make my hair long?
2.How do i know what length I should straighten my hair?
3.How long will it take to grow my hair out?

Hiya
Curly hair does take ages to grow, sadly you can't do anything much other than wait.. eating well will help to maintain good condition for the hair as it does grow, but for the curly hair, there's not much that can be done other than straightening.
It's a sad thing really, those I know with curly hair would love straight and I've straight hair and wish it was curly. I guess the bottom line is to learn in time to love what you're given, cause someone else adores it.

Wavy and curly hair is prone to dryness more so than naturally straight hair and therefore the cuticle layers often tend to separate. Keeping your hair moisturized, getting trims on a regular basis, and not over-processing your hair are big factors in keeping your hair healthy, shiny, and frizz free.

While washing your hair, use a good conditioner.

When you are finished, gently squeeze the water out of your hair with a towel, and if you use a hair dryer, use the coolest setting possible along with the air diffuser attachment. Dry your hair one small section at a time while using a comb or brush to keep it from moving around too much.

Depending on how thick your hair is, secure a section of your hair in between the iron at the roots, and in a smooth steady motion, move it down the length of your hair. It takes a little practice to know how much hair to section off and how slow to go, but practice makes perfect.

Finish it off with a silicone based hair serum. The serum adds shine and also keeps the cuticle nice and smooth, but be careful - a little goes a long way!

Your hair will stay smooth and straight until it gets wet again.

Taking vitamins is really important to help your grow hair faster. Vitamin B and E are proven to help your hair grow. It is important that you search for products that contain it. You can check Fortified Amino Scalp Therapy Shampoo. It combines amino acids and natural herbs with Vitamin B and E to help grow hair faster.

There is a natural limit to how long hair will grow. Some people never cut their hair and it only comes down to their shoulders - others can grow it below their waist.

Curly or straight is decided by the shape of the hair follicles .

I agree with the advice an=bout diet and conditioner. - but like many other me people you may just be stuck with being less than happy with your hair. Mine is straight and grows really fast. I am sure that sounds like heaven to you - but I hate my hair it always looks so lifeless ........

I did, but that's cos I banned them, as they're a spammer. However, it's interesting to see people's responses, so I was leaving it going. 🙂

Oh well, I'll add a bit then.....

And don't forget a Protein Mask, once a month. You can make your own [url]Protein Mask[/url]. Although, personally, I prefer the salon masks for results.

Growing long curly hair takes more patience than growing straight hair.
