Are you making progress with your 2023 hair goals so far? Whether you want thicker hair, longer hair, or healthier hair in general, all these goals have one thing in common: hair growth. Continue reading for our top tips to ensure that you are maximizing your hair growth and getting the results you desire. 

1. Stop Fearing The Hairdresser

Let's get this one out of the way first. Yes, trimming your hair seems counterintuitive, but it's really not. We promise! Trims get rid of accruing damage and the split ends that end up screwing you over in the long run. There is no cure for split ends rather than cutting them off, and once you start doing so consistently you'll be on the road to healthier hair in no time.

2. Study The Products You Use

This goes without saying at this point, but ditching the use of modern chemicals (such as sulfates, parabens and silicones) on your hair will go a long way. These harsh ingredients can build up on your scalp, clog your hair follicles, and sabotage your big hair-growth goals.

3. Refresh Your Hair Brushing Skills

If you need to brush your hair, do not do it in a rush. Please! Only brush your hair gently when you truly need to, and make sure it’s with a brush that's kind to your hair. Opt for a wooden brush with rounded, soft pins to help prevent any additional breakage. Whether you’re brushing, combing, or detangling, always start from the ends and work your way up to avoid snagging your hair! Shop our collection of wooden brushes and combs here. 

4. Eat A Balanced Diet

Ensuring you are eating enough vitamins and minerals can be essential in the pursuit of healthier hair. Some of the best vitamins for hair growth include B vitamins, vitamin D, vitamin E, zinc, biotin and iron. If you are unsure of what vitamins to incorporate to your diet and how, always speak to your doctor or a professional. 

5. Massage Your Scalp Regularly

Scalp massages can help hair growth by stimulating and improving the blood circulation within the hair follicles. Scalp massages cause blood vessels to expand under the skin, generating more blood flow. The stimulation stretches out the cells of hair follicles, which causes them to produce thicker hair strands. You can massage your scalp when you brush it daily, or even in the shower! 5 minutes a day will do the trick. 

6. Don't Be Afraid Of Hair Oiling

Oiling your hair on a regular basis helps to rehydrate it, soften it, prevent excess hair fall and keep the scalp healthy. All things which will result in more rapid growth. Thanks to all the vitamins and minerals present in natural hair oils, you can nourish the hair from the roots to the ends. Not only that, but these hair oils have the ability to penetrate into the hair cuticle in order to help protect your hair from damage. You can read our full hair oiling guide here!
