My hair is to my butt. I found that it is very important to get all your vitamins and nutrients as well as taking care of your hair. I hate pills so I have vitamin gummies and calcium as well as B-12 lozenges. My hair grows insanely fast as well. In 2007, I cut my hair to about 2 inches short from mid back length, I have had my hair cut several times and I still sit on it now. Another thing is I try to use the best products possible. I currently use a vegan shampoo and conditioner called "Abba" it is expensive as hell (30 bucks for a liter) but it lasts way longer than the stuff sold at wal-mart and way better for your hair as well. I think I go through a liter of conditioner in about 3 to 4 weeks since I have to use so little. Also, I very rarely blow-dry or straighten my hair. I use a spray in protective spray by Davines (it will hurt your wallet a little as well.) and my hair isn't frizzy or damaged as much as it used to be. The guy who does my hair when I do go to the salon said that I only need to shampoo my scalp and condition my length. I don't ball up my hair and try to keep it from getting tangled. I usually comb my hair with a wide tooth comb before I shower and I don't ball it up. Never rub your hair with a towel, only squeeze to get the moisture out. Also, be very careful on how much hair product you use, especially hair spray. Less is more and the more you use, the more damage it causes.
