How to grow my hair long"A hell of a fun time."
How I did it: It started growing when I was little and I just never stopped it. I've only had a handful of minor trims, an inch or less each, in my life. My hair is now 48" and still growing. I encourage anyone who wants long hair; just take care of it, and have fun. Lessons & tips: Be patient with your hair; don't rip out tangles, or cut it short in frustration. It might seem tempting, but whatever knot is there, you can fix. Resources: http://longhaircommunity.com/ which I discovered recently; helpful, fun community who are giving me tips on how to make my hair even nicer than it is now. These people KNOW hair. And they will celebrate with you every time you get to a hair length goal, if you're a person who makes those; personally I never was, but a lot of people do.

How I did it: I just let my hair grow. When my ends had appeared to be split or dry, I'd just snip it off by about 5mm. Right now my hair is about 5 cm about my crack. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Didn't cut it... ever! Eat well, exercise, keep hair clean and combed vs tangles and knots.I have been growing my hair since I was born! I have never had a dramatically short hair cut. I try to take good care of my health, eg. I eat vegetables and fruit and I don't smoke. I wish my hair would grow longer though. It is curly and reaches my cleavage, but I'd like it to reach my waist, but no such luck. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I started with a very short haircut, think army recruit. I was able to get past the awkward phase where it sort of looks poofy on the sides and your bangs haven't quite gotten heavy enough to crest and fall down onto your forehead. After that it was relatively smooth sailing. I was able to come up with several different styles for each stage that I was happy with. After about a year and a half, after it's down way past my ears, I usually … Read how I did it…

How I did it: When my son born i have the hair really short like 2 inch long and i let it grow and when my son have 3 years old my hair was a little longer than him and the people used to ask me if i have hair extensions because i have alot of hair and i dye my hair black plus long hair; doesn't look too real hehe. I really miss my hair long, i cut it months ago because i bleach my hair and i want my hair healthy again. It's growing now :) Read how I did it…
How I did it: I just let it go. It was torture waiting for my hair to get long enough to tie back out of my face and I had a hard time resisting the urge to just hack it off. It went through some ugly phases, but definitely worth growing it out. Read how I did it…

I haven’t decorated it yet or anything. Don’t have time right now, but will get on that soon. Hopefully, this weekend.
So far, the biggest thing I’ve learned is to wash and deep condition weekly, how to PROPERLY relax my hair, and moisture, moisture, moisture. Experiment with natural and store products and see what works for you!
My hair isn’t that long. If you have any suggustions, please put it in comments.

Long hair makes me feel pretty. I have really thin hair )-:. The best way to make my hair look nicer, is to have it longer in length.
I’m taking vitamins wtih lots of biotin. I’m also taking fish oil capsules every day. I get lots of exercise and have been trying to drink 8 glasses of water a day.
Really need to work on eating a balanced diet if I want my hair to grow as fast as possible, though…and that would probably help some of my other goals, too…
