TIP #1. Hair goals should be personal as we all have different hair textures, utilize different length retention techniques. Also, Have realistic goals- realistic and personal goals go hand and hand, as there are some factors that are beyond our control. For example: hair growth due to genetics. On average hair grows half of an inch a month however some have managed to grow a little more and others a little less. Yes, you can take vitamins and incorporate couple of ‘faster hair growth techniques’ but those only help so much.

TIP #2. Moisturize, moisture, moisture! Well-moisturized hair is soft and is less prone to breakage. Finding the right hair products that works for your hair texture is key. They would not be natural hair growth tips without moisturizing.

TIP #3. Protective styling- any style where the hair is tucked away. Sew-ins, twist, braids, buns, up-dos etc. The low to no manipulation to the hair strands prevents breakage hence increases length retention. All of these tips are important, however, I tell people if you want to know How to grow natural hair and serious about implementing my natural hair growth tips that really work—do this “leave your hair alone”. Chill with the excessive combing,, brushing and usage of heat.

TIP #4. Keep away from knots and tangles- over combing will cause breakage however, not getting red of tangles and knots will cause further damage. Natural hair coils can easily get tangled so always detangle to get red of shredded hair.

TIP #5. Trim Regularly — I personally trim my hair every 6 months with occasional dusts in between. Factors such as the state of the hair, the health, heat usage and level of manipulation determine how often a dust or trim is needed. Length retention and healthy hair growth are not possible without health ends.

TIP #6. Use your fingers- hair tools such as combs; brush and such can be very damaging. Always opt for finger combing and detangling whenever possible as you are in control of the force and tension on the hair strands.

TIP #7. Have patience — patience is one of the main reasons some women refuse to go natural. Patience is needed whether you are dealing with chemically altered hair or not but especially natural hair. The detangling process requires patience. Also, length retention takes time and patience. be patient with your hair it will grow!

TIP #8. Don’t be a Product Junkie — when people ask how to grow natural hair, I sometimes mention products and they want to go ahead and try all the products I mentioned. I tell them, products don’t grow hair. Try testing one product at a time and stick to what works for you.

TIP #9. Get to know your hair and listen to it—your hair will tell you if it has to much or a lack of something.

TIP #10. LOVE and ACCEPT your hair! Everyone was not mean to have type 3 curls. Our hair textures are unique and we should embrace and love our as is.
