How fast does men's hair grow on their heads and how often do they need to be cut?

Many men who want to change the length of their hair are interested in how quickly the hair on the head grows, what is their average speed and how to increase it in order to see the result in a month. There are answers to all these questions.

An unsuccessful haircut, a desire for an image change, or other urgent circumstance can be the starting point for a man to grow his hair. Knowing the general rules for the growth of male hair, as well as your individual characteristics and genetic predisposition, you can achieve a good result in this matter and even speed up the process. The main thing is to adequately assess the condition of the hair, be patient and tune in to systematic work on your appearance.

The recommendations of this article will be relevant for those men who want to grow their hair longer than it is at the moment. And it doesn't matter if their length is 3 mm or 30. If we grow it, we grow it.

Pay attention to your natural background and take a closer look at your next of kin. If neither you nor your relatives have had and do not have such problems as hair loss, their extremely slow growth or loss at a fairly young age, then consider that everything is in order with the genes - you can safely join the adventure with regrowth.

Pick up a penny to visualize 1.5 cm of hair growing back. Its diameter is 15.5 mm. And don't be confused by the tiny size of the coin, because 1.5 cm / month for hair growth is a very good rate. Just imagine: at such a speed in six months your head of hair will become equal to the width of the average man's palm - 9 cm!

There are factors that a man should exclude from his life, at least temporarily, so as not to inhibit natural hair growth.

It will be very useful to give up smoking and alcohol (or at least significantly reduce their amount), sugary and carbonated drinks, as well as abundant carbohydrate foods and animal fat. There is no need to walk in severe frosts without a headdress, but in a thirty-degree heat create a greenhouse effect on your head by wearing caps and bandanas made of synthetic fabrics.

Replace animal fats with vegetable, sugary drinks with water. Strengthen your diet with vegetables, fruits, good meats, quality cheese, and whole grain breads. And include different nuts on the menu: walnuts, peanuts, cashews and many more.

The good news is that there are proven ways to influence the growth of hair on your head. There are not many of them, but they work.

A competent pharmacist will show the assortment and tell you about the advantages of various dietary supplements and vitamin complexes that will be effective precisely in solving the problem of accelerating hair growth. Among them there are both synthetic and natural in composition. Which one to give preference depends on your personal choice.

It is no secret that the physical effect on the hair follicle "revives" it, activates the growth of strands. To do this, you can use mechanical massage and increased blood circulation around the hair follicle using special means.

Mechanical massage can be done with every brushing (at least three times a day). To do this, just massage the brush along the hair growth from the forehead to the neck and against the hair growth from the neck to the forehead. Back and forth several times. So the scalp is massaged, the blood rushes, the nutrition of the bulb is enhanced, hair growth is activated.

In addition to massage with a comb, be sure to use another method to activate blood circulation in the scalp - applying hot spices, namely, make masks with mustard and red pepper.

Separately, we will focus on two trendy products that significantly improve the appearance and especially the quality of hair during their intensive growth (and not intensive too). These are coconut oil and flax seeds.

Coconut oil, when applied as a mask, works well for the quality of men's hair.

After exposure to coconut oil, the curls become silky, and this quality comes to the fore when the task is to grow chic curls. When the hair is actively growing, it needs more vitamins and minerals.

Flax seeds should be added to food in small quantities. They help strengthen the hair from the inside out. And will also work as a moisturizer for long strands.

As soon as you want to go to the hairdresser, do not deny yourself this. The master of his craft will remove the length only from those hairs that stand out in their length from the total mass. But at the same time it will update the cut, remove dry and brittle ends and give the hair a fresh look. And growing your hair won't be so boring anymore.

The main rule is not to forget to devote your master to your plans for growing hair. With the support of the hairdresser, many questions will be removed, and it will be morally easier to go through this stage. It is even better if the specialist has a “light hand” (acquaintances can tell you about this, or you yourself know about it, having repeatedly previously turned to him for transformation). Then the hair will grow rapidly, not as long as it may seem during the growing process. In addition, make it a habit to cut (trim a couple of centimeters) curls at least once a month or two. In this case, you will immediately see how the hair is added in length. This is due to the fact that there are no more split ends, creases that interfere with healthy hair growth.

There are a few more secrets that will help you become the owner of a gorgeous head of hair in a short time.

• First, don't wash your hair overnight.... Drying at night on a pillow, hair crushed by the head or hand is wrinkled and wrinkled. By combing them in the morning, you simply carry the length along dry creases.
• Second - do not comb completely wet hair, let it dry, especially if it has already grown back. Tangled and wet, they easily roll into knots and tighten with a string on the ridge, and then come off at the root when you pull them with a comb. And - goodbye hair and vain labors!

Try to adjust the air of the hair dryer to a temperature close to room temperatureso that there is no difference either in the direction of hot air or in the direction of cold air. And choose the smallest power.

And remember that as your hair grows, you need to buy the following accessories that will make it easier to care for your growing hair and will not spoil the result:

• for shoulder-length hair, you will need to purchase a special comb that detangles the curls;
• pinning hair (for example, for a shower or as needed) preferably with rubber bands, which are commonly called "telephone cords".

Buy shampoos mild action, sulfate-free, shallow cleaning, replace it with a mixture of yolk and mustard once or twice a week.

Forget about balms and conditioners after shampooing: they mercilessly dry hair and scalp, make curls brittle and thin, and shorten them. Shop hair masks will be your best friend here - they also smooth and remove static electricity, but do not dry out the hair.

And finally, we advise you to be inspired by the transformations of Hollywood stars, actors and celebrities. For example, Tom Hardy, Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Vincent Cassel ... They repeatedly changed their image, sometimes growing their hair, cutting it, then growing it again, each time proving that it is possible to get the desired length, and even faster than experts promise. And the age of these beautiful men suggests that after 30 and after 40, you need to experiment with length at least in order to indicate that some special period has come in your life.
