Hi!I would like to know if anyone has any tips on growing out hair. I want my hair long again, being I've had the same short hair cut for some time now. Is there a way to grow it out faster? What are good trimming techniques?Thanks,Julia

Hiya, Julia. I have some time on my hands this morning, so here's /everything/ I know about growing out your hair.1. Most people will tell you that there's no "magic pill" for hair growth, and that the best you can do is exercise, eat right, drink plenty of water, and get enough sleep each night to maximize its potential. But several months ago, some of us got all worked up about Viviscal, a hair-growth supplement from Finland (?). For most people, it was a letdown. Now hopes lie with Hair Formula 37, which you will see advertised on this site. Check it out. It's not too expensive.2. The most helpful thing you can do is take /excellent/ care of your hair so that you can trim less length, less often. This means using good products, deep-conditioning regularly, and handling your hair with great care and gentleness. Heat styling is bad. Rough brushing is bad. Brushing wet hair is very bad. Consult this site for hair-care tips.3. Even though you're growing your hair out, you still need regular trims to prevent split ends from moving up the hair shaft. You also want to keep the lines of your style clean and even. Every 6 to 8 weeks, have a stylist "take the tips off" your hair. This means a microtrim of a quarter inch or so.4. Above all, be patient, and don't go running to the salon on your first bad hair day. This is why some people never attain long hair.Best of luck,Ally
