Watz Up Everyone...I'm 16 years old, Dominican with good hair (supposedly curly...says my mom)...but I wouldn't kno cus ever since I was 4 years old, I've had a low cut. I take pride in it and at this age I now get a haircut every 5 days because I cant stand to be without a fresh cut and shape up. However, I've been longing for a change for a while...I tried waves and it didnt work out. Now I have a new goal in mind...growin my hair out long...real long.
 
Here's a Pic of my hair now (just got a hair cut yesterday):
 
 
And I want it to be at least as long as rapper J Kwon's hair is in this music video at around 2 minutes and 38 seconds (best example I cud find):
 
 
 
So...how long would it take me to grow it that long and what could I do with it in the meantime while its growing to stop me from grabbing a pair of clippers? Thanks for reading...any advice would be great.

Hello,and Welcome!
 
You will find loads of info here.
 
 For motivation, I would say, just to keep picturing yourself with the hair you will have when you reach your goal.Tell yourself," I can do it!"
Take a mulit vitamin,if you don't already. Lots of protein will also help greatly.I take a multi, flax seed oil, cod liver oil, biotin and zinc, and when I can remember, I take a probiotic( beneficial bacteria, helps with digestion),And I eat tons of protein. But don't forget about your greens.TongueI hope this helps somewhat.

also do a lot of excercise and scalp massage. that way blood can get to the cuticles to ensure faster growth. oh and don't use stuff with harsh chemicals such as sulfates those are bad
