A healthy diet will increase the length of your hair faster than poor nutrition would. Protein and calcium are really good for your hair. They make your hair stronger so that it will not have split ends. Use hair products that are natural because they will also help your hair.

I tried the homemade recipe. All you need 1 or 2 egg yolks, 1/3 of a small bottle of AD drops and a teaspoon or two of castor oil. Mix that together and apply it on your hair roots. Hold for a couple of minutes, 5 or 10 minutes maximally and wash it off.

There isn't any scientific way to make your hair grow faster. However there are ways to reduce the amount of hair that you lose the more you will have growing to your desired length. One important tip is trim your ends every month. Nothing drastic just enough to snip off frayed ends. Also yoy should take multivitamins daily, replinish oils.
