| A few sections of my hair are broken off and are shorter than the rest of my hair. This problem is making my hair look thinner than it really is. Can anyone tell me how to make the shorter areas catch up with the rest of my hair's length fast! |

Ah, I'm sorry to hear that. There really is no way to make your shorter hairs 'catch up' because as they grow, the rest of your hair is growing as well. Exactly how drastic is the difference? A few inches, or more than five? ------------- Make every day you have count, before the time comes for you to count every day you have. |

| I would say that it's about a 3 inch difference |

| i am going to recommend doing ends treatments. Prior to shampooing apply conditioner to the bottom 2-3 inches of your hair. Leave in for 10-30 mins. then rinse out and shampoo/condition as normal. Also at nite- 3-4 times weekly apply profective- the anti-breakage one(it's green_ from root to end then apply a thin, plastic processing cap. rinse in the morning. After a couple of weeks , you will notice a difference. |

the only thing you can do is get all of your hair cut off and let it grow out even. You could try wildgrowth hair ol or surge spray 14 that will probably make your hair grow faster. Visit:www.wilgrowth.com ------------- |

| The same thing happend to me this year. My hair finally grew to a beautiful and long legnth (past my bra strap) and all of sudden, i noticed my hair was short in the middle of my head one day. I did not pay it much attention, but it just got worse. I could not figure out what the problem was. I finally found it to be my draw string ponytail comb that was causing the damage. Even though my hair was very long, for convenience i would just wear a weave ponytail during the weekdays. It would only break where the drawstring ponytail comb was placed daily. So now i pin my ponytail in with round tip bobypins, oil it EVERYDAY with carrot oil and use a leave in conditioner daily. I wash it every week, and keep it trimed, even trim the short broken off spots. My hair is growing back just fine now, but the damage caused my hair to break off so short in some places, i know it will take my shorter spots a least a year and a half to get as long as it ws before. You need to find the cause of why your hair is breaking off. Hair does not break in select spots for no reason. Take a good look at what you do to your hair everyday, and what you put in it, once you know what it is then you can stop it, and start the process of repairing those damged areas. |

I have had sections of my hair break off at the ends also, so went I went to my beautician and she suggested that I go ahead and cut off the hair that was breaking off. My hair is a little past shoulder length and my beautician gave me cute but not to drastic layers. I'm loving the hair cut and it also makes my hair look thicker. ------------- leale |

Thank you all so very much. I did finnd out what the reason was for the breakage. I The thing is I started Washing my own hair and BLOW DRYING it every week and the heat was burning my hari and making it break off. I've started back going to my beauticina once every two weeks like I was doing befor and my hair is doing 100% better. Its stronger and its getting thicker and thicker every time I go to my beautician to get my hair I'm soo glad I rigured out this problem and I just want to thank everyone for their help. God Bless each of you
