    I've got a friend who was on a soft food diet for a long time and ate LOTS of Jello. Her nails & hair grew like crazy and the dr told her it was from the Jello. Can't hurt to try a 10 cal treat to grow your hair while doing other stuff too.

    Dont you have to be pregnant to take prenatal vitamins?

    No. From what I understand, women are encouraged to take them during their entire child bearing years, whether you have kids or not. I guess the idea is that you take them BEFORE getting pregnant, and during pregnancy, to ensure that you are not deficient, and reduce birth defects. It just happens to have a side effect of making your skin, hair, and nails very nice.

    I do not know this from experience though. My mom told me about it. I am terrified of anyone catching me in the store with prenatal vitamins because I don't want them thinking that I want to become pregnant. I get teased enough about that as it is.

    I keep my hair long by keeping it up.
    I had the same problem as you couldn't get much past my shoulders. I was just breaking it off sitting in the car, in bed, anywhere that you can come into contact with it my shoulders pressed against it and it started to break there. Now I were it in a folded pony tail most of the time and let it down when I want to show off my lovely locks. My hair is going gray and I love it!

    I haven't read the responses...however, I think you should take a good daily multi vitamin, eat as healthfuly as possible, air dry, make sure your shampoo/conditioner are natural and contain no sulfates or alcohols. My hair is half way down my back at the moment and it has been as long as past my butt. Proper care and diet are all that is needed. I'll change my pic to one from before I cut it 'short'...aka boob length for me, lol.

    *edit- I do dye my hair...but no other chemicals. I also never use any other process or heat on my hair.

    Timely topic for me. My hair is in good condition despite all I do to it (keratin treatments, dye, heat, etc)... but I'm wanting to grow it back out again. My husband sorta hinted that he misses me having longer locks. I've had a chin-length bob for quite a while. Ugh... I hate growing hair out. I'm going to try some of these suggestions to see if any of them help! Thanks yall...
