I am Bahamian and I just got my hair relaxed. My hair is really short and have been wrapping it and I want to grow my hair faster and healthier. So what should I do?
***************
After your hair has been permed or relaxed, its especially fragile. Be extremely careful with your hair after any chemical treatment! After you've reconditioned it, you can be a bit more aggressive with it, but you should always treat your hair with the respect it deserves!
Your hair is made of protein (keratin) so it's essential for healthy hair. Eat lean meats or consume protein shakes or protein bars to help with hair growth.
Healthy hair is a sign that you've been eating the right foods. Eat healthy foods more often and cut back on the amount of fatty foods you consume.
Always comb wet hair and brush dry hair. Handle your hair gently and it will reward you!
If you want your hair to grow faster, take biotin supplements every day. Taking Super Biotin is a fantastic way to jump start hair growth, strengthen your nails, and regenerate your skin. Its packed with 5000 micrograms of Biotin which speeds up hair growth.
Omega 3 fatty acids are also essential for hair growth. If you eat fish at least twice a week, you're probably getting enough. (Fatty fish like salmon or anchovies.) If not, you may need take supplements. You body cannot produce Omega 3 fatty acids so you have to get them from outside sources. Taking fish oil or flax oil supplements are recommended. You might also use cold pressed olive oil in your dishes and on your salads for more Omega's.
If you're having a hard time growing your hair out, you might also need other hair vitamins. These vitamins are essential for hair growth and should be included in the foods you eat or by taking vitamin supplements.
