How to Grow Out Your Hair

Step 1

Coat your hair with a leave-in strengthening conditioner after each wash to prevent hair damage that can hinder growth.
Step 2

Avoid brushing or combing wet hair, which can easily break. Wait until hair is damp or dry before attempting to untangle it.
Step 3

Trim your hair every eight weeks. Be sure to take off a minimal amount, which will help rid your hair of split ends and encourage healthy growth without significantly shortening the hair.
Step 4

Make zinc, found in meats and dairy products, and vitamin E and B supplements--all of which help to stimulate hair growth--a regular part of your diet.
