How to Regrow Hair Faster: Triggering Hair Regrowth

But first, let us know about a few reasons why your hair isn’t growing as fast as you’d like.

Understanding the Hair Growth process

Factors impacting Hair Regrowth

Impatience

When we decide to grow our hair, we try and look for healthy methods to achieve that goal even when we know that it won’t happen overnight. Our wanting results quickly, we start to feel like our hair isn’t growing and have no difference from day to day or week to week.
To achieve the desired length while feeling motivated, try to check your hair length once a month. Take pictures if you want to see the difference. There might not be much difference for a few months but remember that slow and steady wins the race.

Cutting your hair too often

Are you someone who goes for a once a month trim? If yes, then you might want to look into this.
Think about it, your hair is growing, and with the trims, it goes back to the same length as before making you feel like there has been no change whatsoever.
So to have good hair growth, don’t try to cut it too often.

Breakage

We all know that the longer the hair, the older the tips. Having said that, our hair has gone through quite a bit of stressful changes throughout our lives.
If your hair is damaged enough, the breakage can be a bit more, making you lose as much as you gain at the roots.
If your hair has a dreaded white tip or a super blunt ending, those might be signs for your hair breaking off at the tips. To protect your hair against that, try to change a few things like using a silk pillowcase while sleeping, don’t tie your hair up too much and try to stay away from styling tools.

Medical conditions

Trying every method but still can’t achieve steady hair growth? For a few of them, medical conditions seriously slow down the hair growth, ending up being the same length. There can be several reasons like scalp issues, hormonal imbalance, lack of physical activity, etc.
Another reason could be a lack of nutrients in the diet. Taking too many wrong vitamins can lead to hair loss more than hair gain, so consulting a doctor can help you understand the loopholes.

Tips for Hair Regrowth

Sulfate-free shampoo

Sulfate is put in our shampoos to help strip oil and dirt out of it. However, our hair needs a little bit of moisture and oils to remain healthy. Sulfate causes the hair to be oil and dirt free, which takes away the moisture leaving the hair dry and leading to dry scalp and prone to irritation.
A few examples of sulfate-free shampoos for damaged hair are: Moroccan Oil Moisture Repair Shampoo; for oily hair: Kératase Aura Botanica Bain Micellaire Shampoo; for dry hair: Body Shop Rainforest Moisture Shampoo; for a soothing scalp, Vichy Dercos Ultra-Soothing Sulphate-free Shampoo.
For hair growth, you can use Olaplex No 4 Bond Maintenance Shampoo or Forest Essentials Hair Cleanser Bhringraj & Shikakai.

Hair oils

Oiling hair to resolve scalp issues and boost hair growth is a tip shared with us by many people. However, not everyone has the same hair texture and scalp, so there are a few things to consider while giving yourself an oil massage.
Different types of oils have their own functions to help us out with our hair troubles. Keep in mind that oiling hair does help but it is not the only cure.
If you have dandruff due to overactive sebaceous glands, oiling may not help as it will block your pores, preventing the moisture from entering the scalp and causing more dandruff. Oiling can work if the scalp is dry and causes dandruff.
Oils help with the hair quality, but they do not give guarantee for faster or thicker hair growth. Coconut oil (no need for any other things to mix it with, warm it up and apply to the roots and length), castor oil(the extracted oil is sticky so might be harder to wash it off so make sure to do a few repeat rinses), olive oil(using once a fortnight. To condition the hair, and olive oil hair mask with 1 tsp honey, 2 tsp olive oil applying it on the length. Wrap it up in a hot towel for 30 minutes, rinse it thoroughly with lukewarm water), and Argan oil (rich in vitamin E) are some oils you can use to make your hair healthier.

Fermented rice water

Rice water promotes hair growth while nourishing the scalp. It also improves the elasticity of the hair and smoothens the hair cuticles. It is a home remedy protein treatment that will strengthen your hair and reduce breakage. Use it a few times to avoid protein overload.
To prepare rice water, you will need ½ cup of clean rice, 2-3 cups of water, and 5-10 drops of essential oils. You can also use orange peel instead of essential oils.
Place the rice in a container and add the water, stir it well. Cover and leave the rice water to sit at room temperature for 1-2 days. Strain the rice and add the essential oils (or orange peel) to it. Keep it for one hour. You can apply the rice water from a spray bottle. Rinse it with lukewarm water.
You can also use the rice water to make a scalp treatment mask by adding green tea, 2 tbsp of coconut oil and applying the paste-like mixture to the scalp using a cotton ball.

Everyone has different hair, different reasons for stunted hair growth. The tips and reasons mentioned are just a few hacks to help you get the desired results.
