sounds like you are doing all the right things now. Your hair often will grow its own pace and until then you might consider hair extensions.

There is no real way to grow your hair really fast the key is to keep it healthy while it grows out. I went to the hair salon once and they fried my hair and I was forced to enjoy an new short cut.

This is my advice to grow your hair out nice and healthy:

-Get a trim every month to two months.

-Do not wash your hair every single day. Try every other day. And try not to use a product that will strip your hair. (Love the Dove products)

-Avoid using a lot of product. (The best hair spray is Shaper Plus)

-And by all means take your Omega-3 and other vitamins!

-Don't go on any strange diets.

The steps you are taking to maximize hair growth is not worth the effort. Because hair is dead, there is no actual supplement or treatment that can make the hair itself grow. Instead, the source of hair growth does not lie in the hair strand, but in the hair follicle, which is WITHIN the scalp. So technically, you putting mayonaisse, and extra virgin olive oil and wearing a scarf, is not really making your hair grow faster.

So with that said, here are some tips that will actually help make your hair grow faster:

- Eliminate or cut back on smoking, caffeine and carbonated sodas which weaken the body and block maximum hair growing potential.

- Eat a healthy diet. Focus on taking in foods high in antioxidants such as fruit, veggies, nuts, etc.

-.Since hair is protein, a diet that is too low in protein may cause some thinning in hair or a retardation in the growth cycle. The converse is true, If you eat a protein-rich diet it will often result in improved hair growth. Foods rich in protein are fish, eggs, beans, yogurt, and even soy tofu.

-Treat your hair like a piece of fine old lace. Treat it carefully avoiding any unnecessary brushing, combing or handling.

Avoid use of hot water, hot blow dryers or other hair care tools that may stress the hair.

-Have a weekly scalp massage to provide stimulation to the hair follicles.

-Do a series of ongoing hot oil treatments to protect the hair's shaft.

-Have regular trims to eliminate split ends and allow the hair to look and feel healthier.

-Get plenty of rest and sleep to allow your body to grow hair. Sources have shown that excessive stress and exhaustion can produce chemicals that block hair growth. The more happier and healthier you are, the better chance youre hair will grow faster.
