| HOW I GOT MY SHOULDER CUT HAIR, LONG AND THICK IN ONE MONTH: ALL ABOUT HAIR GROWTH |
Many people dream of having beautiful long hair, but they are often too busy with work and other things to look after their hair properly. Their usual questions are how to get long and thick hair naturally and home remedies for long hair. That is why I put together this article about my secrets on how I got my shoulder-cut hair long and thick in just one month by myself at home!
First, we should know the nutrients that help hair grow long and thick.
Nutrients Required for Hair Growth
You will be surprised to know that vitamin A is a key player in healthy hair growth. Vitamin A is essential for your body to produce sebum, an oily substance that lubricates your scalp. Without enough sebum, your scalp gets dry and brittle, making it hard for hair to grow. Many foods are rich in vitamin A, like spinach, egg yolks, etc.
Another nutrient required for hair growth is omega 3- fatty acids. These fatty acids are present in salmon and other fish, walnuts, and flaxseed. Also, Omega3- fatty acids help maintain healthy cells and support blood circulation, which helps nourish your hair roots.
HOW TO GET LONG AND THICK HAIR NATURALLY?
Here are some techniques that you can use to grow your short hair long and thick in just a few weeks.
Consume healthy food:
Rich nutrients are especially important for healthy hair growth. While many people think about what to eat for length, few consider what to eat for thickness. If you’re trying to grow long and full strands at home (without using harmful chemicals), focus on improving your diet first.
Nuts are a great choice; they’re easy to store and contain plenty of healthy fat.
Avocados help strengthen strands while providing essential fats that keep your body hydrated.
Consider adding protein to your diet as well. Eggs and lean meats are found cheaply at any grocery store; mix them with fiber-rich foods like fruit or vegetables. Increase your intake of fresh produce by making salads a regular part of each day.
Most importantly, drink plenty of water every day—as much as possible!
Add Protein to Your Diet:
When you lose weight, your body slows down its production of natural oils (sebum) that help keep your scalp healthy and your follicles lubricated. By adding more protein to your diet, you can support healthy sebum production (which is essential for growing longer locks).
Good sources of proteins include fish, eggs, lean meat, and yogurt.
Massage hair with oil:
The fatty acids in oil contain properties that promote healthy blood flow, which helps nourish every cell in your body. It boosts hair growth by getting nutrients from deeper layers of your scalp down to its roots. You can use many hair oils like castor, olive, mustard, coconut, etc to make your hair grow faster.
No matter how much you use, don’t rinse the oil out after applying—leave it on all night, then wash your hair thoroughly in the morning as usual.
Use a heat protectant when straightening hair.
Use cold water to wash your hair:
You should also wash your hair with cold water when you are trying to add length to it.
Coldwater is ideal for long hair. Use it to rinse your shampoo. It will close your cuticles, preventing them from shrinking or becoming brittle. The less frequently you wash your hair, the longer it’ll grow naturally (think of a lion’s mane). Just be sure not to use ice cubes!
Hot water opens up your cuticles to clean out any buildup that might have occurred since your last wash. This makes it better at detangling than cold water but leads to a faster drying time due to more exposure to oxygen.
Hot water is fine for giving curly hair shine and definition by gently opening up its curly pattern so that moisture penetrates each strand evenly instead of sitting on top, which gives the kinkier curls a frizzy appearance.
Skip harsh shampoos and serums:
There is a rate at which your skin can absorb how much moisture. Harsh chemicals in hair products can dry your hair and damage its natural oils. One should use shampoo no more than twice a week. Try to choose gentle conditioners the rest of the time, to keep your strands healthy and shiny.
HOME REMEDIES TO GET LONG AND THICKER HAIR FAST
Many people like to use natural home remedies to make their tresses grow faster and healthier.
Here are some great ones!
A teaspoon or two of coconut oil:
Rub it into wet hair (you may want to heat it for 15 seconds or so first) as if you were doing a deep conditioning treatment. You should cover your head with plastic wrap or saran wrap and leave it for 20 minutes before rinsing out well (I usually scrub between my hands under running water) and shampooing.
Mayonnaise and yogurt mask:
Yogurt is an all-natural hair conditioner. It promotes new hair growth and improves hair appearance. A yogurt wash is a simple and efficient home cure if you have dry, frizzy, or are suffering hair loss.
Mix a cup of yogurt with a tablespoon of mayonnaise and olive oil (or almond oil). Let it sit on your scalp overnight—no need to cover your head, just put it all over your scalp. Wash it away in the morning.
Coconut milk treatment:
Onion water treatment:
Onion is rich in sulphuric compounds that stimulate blood circulation, which helps break down fatty acids to produce natural oils that can make your hair grow long. Its antibacterial properties help you fight dandruff and prevent scalp infections. You need to extract some fresh juice from an onion and massage it into your scalp. Wash it away with water after 15 minutes.
Conclusion:
Following these methods and remedies in your hair care routine might help you in getting your dream of having long and thick hair like a horse mane.
