I just got my hair cut not to long ago, my hair was pretty long and I got it chopped off to my shoulders. Im not missing it all due to it was over processed and dried out, due to using a flat iron everyday, since I have a natural weird wave in my hair. I thought getting it cut I could start over with some nice fresh hair, since I had my old hair forever and it seemed to be getting shorter and not longer and falling out. My cue for a nice cut, even though the hairstylist did a poor job of cutting it in style wise, I manage anyways. Since Ive got the cut my hair seems to be growing faster, even though this is not true so to speak, but for my experience it seems to be working for me so I would have to differ a little, if you are experiencing no hair growth and dry hair and tried everything else, maybe a good nice cut will start you off right. I am back to flat ironing again so I know Im not starting my hair off great, and I chemically process my hair alot, so cutting for me is strengthening when you constantly using heating products. This is the case for most people who have that annoying wave or frizz or thing that just has to be treated before going out in public, other than that agree with the rest for those with perfect hair.

Damage and split ends are caused by too much wind, sun and the most common is brushing hair when wet.

Wet hair is at its weakest. So gently use a wide comb if thick and tangled.

NEVER BRUSH HAIR WHEN WET!!! This causes damage and split ends. Good brushes found at web site.

Brushing hair gently from the scalp with a good quality brush when dry stimulateing the scalp and follicles. Never brush when wet. Can massage the scalp when wet.

If hair is cut with blunt scissors the hair will grow back unevenly. When the hair (hair shaft) is cut with sharp scissors the style cut when growing out will look better and will be consistent.

I don’t know what any of you guys are babbling about, but this article is half right (and uninviting to say the least)…

No, cutting your hair will NOT make it grow faster, HOWEVER it will prevent further breakage by removing already damaged hair, making it stronger, which will result with healthier and longer hair.
The hair outside of your scalp is psychologically dead, it has no blood, nerves or muscles.
However, for a dead fiber, it is quite remarkable. Healthy hair can be stretched up to 30% of its length, can absorb it own weight in water, and can increase its diameter by 20%.
Meaning TAKE CARE OF IT. Eat good, wash as recommended by specialist, exercise (if you’re into that) and most of all REMOVE DAMAGED ENDS! The ONLY way to remove bad ends are by cutting them. Sorry. But trust, it will sooooo be worth it!

If you’re worried about losing length, trim your hair in increments. You don’t have to chomp it all off in one sitting. Let your hair grow as normal, and TRIM your hair every so often (Maybe once a week, or twice a month depending on how fast your hair grows). But dead ends must go. You will not get the full effect of fuller, stronger, and longer hair with damaged ends consistently breaking off, making your hairs progress harder to see.

Hope this helps

Well Mallory, I am no expert in hair care (my bald head is proof of that) and have no valuable input to the comments you made. But I think you and the writer of this articel are saying the same thing. Cutting your hair does not make it longer it just makes it healthier by stopping slit ends.

You are obviously someone who knows what they are talking about when it comes to hair. What tips do you have for maintaining healthy hair?
