There are two ways to go about growing out your hair.

Growing Your Hair Out

Many people make the mistake of not getting their hair cut regularly when trying to grow their hair out. It’s also a common myth that regular haircuts will make your hair grow out faster. Let me set the record straight. Regular haircuts do not make your hair grow faster. Rather, regular trims will prevent your hair from breakage and split ends that will make your hair appear to grow slower. The most important aspect in growing your hair out is to communicate with your hair stylist and have the ends of your hair trimmed slightly at regular intervals. This will minimize hair breakage, and maximize your growth potential! Check out these great tips for growing your hair out.

If you notice more breakage or split ends, it could be cut as frequently as every 6 to 8 weeks. Be specific with your hair stylist when you’re getting your haircut. If you’d like your hair to grow longer, ask your stylist to trim a half an inch or less off the ends. If you’d like your hair to stay the same length, you’ll want to ask her to trim more off the ends. Remember, hair grows one half inch per four weeks. Take that into consideration when talking to your stylist about how much hair to cut off.

Knowing how often to cut your hair has a lot to do with your hair goals and the chemical processes you put your hair through on a regular basis. This guide should help you set up your own haircut schedule, without making you want to pull your hair out.

It’s important to know that hair grows on an average of one half inch every four weeks. Of course, some people’s hair grows a little faster and some grows a little slower.
