I have been growing my own hair since 1986 and I have personally tried every possible "fast hair growth" method available. While I have managed to grow very long hair below my waist that is healthy. I have learned the following secrets over the past twenty years:

1. Growing long hair takes a commitment.
2. Hair, except in rare cases, when it is growing at its optimal genetic rate - will only grow 6-8 inches per year.
3. If your have hair that is currently chin length and want it to be below your bra - take a ruler and measure the space between where your hair is currently and where you want it to be.
4. If you need 6 inches to reach your bra strap, plan on it taking 10-12 months for your hair to grow to your goal length. Every person is different and it may take you a longer or short time depending on a wide variety of factors.
5. It is very important if you make the personal commitment to grow your hair long that you do all the right things which includes the following things:

• Proper nutrition.

• Drinking enough daily fluids.

• Minimizing unhealthy hair care habits (chemicals, hot tool use, damaging hair care product use).

• Eliminating hair growth retarding lifestyle habits (excessive caffeine, sugar, nicotine, alcohol, junk foods).

• Getting enough sleep, rest and relaxation.

• Taking vitamins, minerals & herbs. Because of the current condition of the earth and exhausted soil, human beings must take nutritional supplements to operate at their maximum hair growth rates. Whether you take a good multi-vitamin or a product designed to grow hair - this is an essential component for growing hair at your maximum potential.
