I hope this can be of help. This is a lucky time for you because you can definately grow your hair past your shoulders with the products that they have available now.

I`m going to give you the advise that I used and that my clients used. After using this system for about 5 years my clients have hair to the middle of their backs and they have relaxed African American hair.

1. Shampoo your hair at least once a week, but perferrably 3 times a week. Believe it or not every day is best.

2. Use a botanically based shampoo, conditioner, and cuticle sealer every time you shampoo and condition your hair. I recommend Biosynthesis system. Biosynthesis.com I`ve seen it work. It is great because it has amino acids, proteins, and moisturizers. If not Biosynthesis, use a botanical producut because they grow your hair faster.

3. DON`T SLEEP ON COTTON SHEETS! This is most important. Cotton sheets are like velcro to your hair. Make sure your hair is touching satin and silk!

4. Take a hair vitamin supplement. It`s best if you take one that has a good amount of Biotin in it.

5. Have your ends trimmed every other relaxer touch up with SHARP JAPANESE SHEARS. You want it every other because it will accumlate length faster. You want Japenese shears because you trims will last longer.

6. Have a positive attitude and relax. Stress can create a chemical in your body that is very damaging to your hair

7. No permenent color and relaxer.

There may be a few more things but those are the most important things. Your hair is growing right now. Once you arrest breakage you will see your length accumulating.

Also, if you have relaxed hair it is best to reduce heat, but with the D. Low System I mentioned and the Nubian Naturals, you do not have to worry about that as much. Your hair will be protected. I have heard great results from using both.

Yes, sister you can grow your hair to great lengths despite genetic factors. Check out sisters like Cathy Howse, Wanakee, and Kenya Moore who have back to waist length hair!! All they did was properly moisturize, condition, and wash their hair on a regular basis. (For me, natural hair grows waaay faster because I do not have any chemicals)

For relaxed hair, check out Cathy`s book Ultra Black HairGrowth II the site is http://ubhpublications.com , where she explains about washing and conditioning our hair every 3 to 5 days. (Condition once a week for 30 minutes, and I have noticed tremendous results with my hair. )
Also read some books by:
Mr. John L. Jackson "A Black Woman`s Dream: Growing Your Hair Beyond Your Shoulders" and "Mr. John`s Technique for Successful Holistic Hair Growth" his address (this was in another post) 13826 W. McNichols Rd., Detroit, MI 48235.
**Another great, great system for relaxed or natural hair is http://www.dlowshampoosystem , http://www.dudleyq.com , and http://www.nubiannaturals.com

Peace, and hope this helps.
