Long, strong hair is the result of patient care. While you can do things like massage your scalp and take biotin supplements to stimulate hair growth, the biggest challenge is preventing damage and breakage. Regular trimming, using the right hair products, and avoiding harsh treatments and styling will help you keep your hair healthy. Lifestyle changes such as choosing a healthy diet for hair are also important. Sure, it will take time and effort, but with determination, you will own the long, beautiful hair that you have always dreamed of.
Steps
Stimulate hair growth
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/61/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-1-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair- Step-1-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/6/61/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-1-Version-4.jpg/ v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-1-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Massage your scalp every day. Strong hair starts from the scalp. A 5-minute daily scalp massage helps stimulate blood circulation and hair growth. You can massage your scalp while washing your hair or whenever you have free time. [1] X Research Source
- Use your fingertips instead of your fingernails to massage your scalp. Nails can irritate or scratch your skin when you massage too hard.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/cb/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-2-Version-4.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair- Step-2-Version-4.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/cb/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-2-Version-4.jpg/ v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-2-Version-4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Apply 3-4 drops of peppermint oil to your scalp every day. Peppermint essential oil when applied directly to the scalp stimulates hair growth. Apply a few drops of the oil to your scalp and massage with your fingertips. You need to do this process at least once a day for 4 weeks to stimulate hair growth. [2] X Trusted Source PubMed Central Go to Source
- For best results, use a few drops of pure peppermint oil with 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. Do not use mint-flavored oils because this product, although fragrant, is not as effective as pure oils.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/e2/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair- Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/e2/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-3-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-3-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use products that stimulate hair growth. Some shampoos and conditioners help speed up hair growth. So choose a shampoo that stimulates hair growth and contains ingredients like: [3] X Research Source
- Biotin
- Minoxidil
- Niacin
- Tea tree oil
- Vitamin E
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/ab/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-4.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-4. jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/ab/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-4.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step- 4.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div> “}
Take one 5,000mg biotin tablet per day. Bition aka vitamin B7 is an essential B vitamin. This ingredient has long been used to stimulate hair growth and is often the base ingredient in hair conditioners. Take at least one 5,000mg biotin tablet per day to promote long and thick hair. [4] X Trusted Source PubMed Central Go to Source
- Biotin supplements are available at most drugstores and health food stores. You can also find hair, skin and nail vitamins that contain biotin.
- Biotin is also available as a topical medication. If you choose this type, follow the instructions on the package.
Prevent hair damage
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/d/d1/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-5-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair- Step-5-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/d/d1/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-5-Version-3.jpg/ v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-5-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Wash your hair 3-4 times per week. Many people report longer hair growth after reducing the number of shampoos and conditioners they wash their hair with. Consider washing your hair every 2-3 days. On days when you don’t wash your hair, you’ll wear a shower cap in the shower and use dry shampoo to control the amount of oil in your hair. [5] X Research Sources
- If your hair is prone to tangles, you will need to wash it more often. Using conditioner every day or every other day will help you avoid tangled hair that leads to breakage.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/9/94/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-6.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-6. jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/9/94/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-6.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step- 6.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div> “}
Cut your hair every 8-12 weeks. Damage usually starts at the ends of the hair and works its way up to the roots. Regular haircuts will prevent damage from forming, helping to protect your hair in the long run. Go to the hairdresser every 2-3 months and have them cut the ends to no more than 15mm so the damage doesn’t continue to spread. [6] X Research Source
- If accidental hair damage occurs with hot equipment or during chemical treatments, you should visit a hairdresser as soon as possible.
- If you don’t have the time or condition to go to the hairdresser regularly, you can also cut your own hair. Buy a “genuine” hair clipper if you choose this way as you will get very different results than using regular scissors.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/86/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-7-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair- Step-7-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/86/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-7-Version-3.jpg/ v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-7-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use an intensive hair mask every week to hydrate your hair. An intensive moisturizing treatment that protects the hair shaft and prevents frizz. Choose a hair mask formulated specifically for your hair (such as thick, thin, curly, dry, colored, etc.). You can ask your hairdresser to recommend the right product if you are not sure which product will work for you. [7] X Research Sources
- Apply the mask to your hair after shampooing and leave it in for the time indicated on the product packaging. Some masks need to be incubated for 3-5 minutes, while others will take 10-15 minutes. After incubating your hair, you just need to rinse off the mask.
- You can find hair masks at most cosmetic and beauty stores, as well as at supermarkets and shopping malls.

Limit the number of times you brush your hair. Brushing your hair can cause strong hairs to fall out; Therefore, you should reduce this habit. Brush your hair only if you want to detangle your hair after washing or styling. [8] X Research Sources
- Remember to choose the right comb when combing your hair. Wide tooth combs are suitable for wet and dry brushing, helping to detangle without causing much hair loss. A boar bristle comb is also effective but is suitable for use on dry hair.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/e7/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-9-Version-3.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair- Step-9-Version-3.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/e7/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-9-Version-3.jpg/ v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-9-Version-3.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:325,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:514,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Limit the use of heat styling equipment. Heat damages the hair, from the cuticle to the tip. That’s why it’s best to avoid using heat devices, such as dryers, straighteners, curlers, electric combs, presses, and electric rollers. [9] X Research Source
- If you must dry your hair, use only low heat and place the dryer away from your hair.
- Use a heat protectant if you absolutely must use a heat device to treat your hair. Place the spray half an arm’s length away and spray your hair before using the heat device.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/2/28/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-10-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair- Step-10-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/2/28/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-10-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-10-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Wipe wet hair with a microfiber towel instead of a regular cotton towel. Certain materials, such as regular cotton towels, can cause damage to wet hair. Therefore, you should avoid using ordinary cotton towels to dry your hair. Instead, blow-dry your hair more often. If you need to dry your hair after washing, use a microfiber towel. Never wrap your hair in a towel and leave it on your head. You should use a towel to gently squeeze to reduce the water on the hair. [10] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/6e/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-11-Version-2.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair- Step-11-Version-2.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/6/6e/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-11-Version-2.jpg/ v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-11-Version-2.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:” <div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Skip chemical hair treatments to prevent damage. Hair treatments such as dyeing, highlighting, perming, straightening and lightening hair color can all cause damage to the hair. If you want long, beautiful hair, you need to remove these from your hair care routine. [11] X Research Source
- If your hair is already colored or treated with chemicals, you need to talk to your hairdresser to find out the most effective way to change the style.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/a4/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-12.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-12. jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/a4/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-12.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step- 12.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div> “}
Choose light hairstyles like a low ponytail or a messy bun. Many hairstyles can put pressure on the scalp and hair strands. Styles that require hair to be tied up like a high ponytail or combed back and some braids will cause hair to fall out. So avoid damaging your hair by letting your hair down or styling it gently like a low ponytail and messy buns more often. [12] X Research Source
- The hair looks good after it is attached, but the condition of the hair will get worse when you remove the extension. Avoid these styles when possible, or use hair extensions to reduce the risk of damage to your hair.
Lifestyle change
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/be/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-13.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-13. jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/b/be/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-13.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step- 13.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div> “}
Sleep on silk or satin pillowcases to avoid damaging your hair. Silk and satin are said to be softer for hair than cotton. These materials help prevent tangles, which are the cause of breakage. Invest in some good quality silk or satin pillowcases to keep your hair long and beautiful. [13] X Research Source
- You can find affordable silk pillowcases at mattress stores, or buy them online. Satin is usually less expensive than silk.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/7/74/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-14.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-14. jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/7/74/Grow-Longer-Hair-Step-14.jpg/v4-728px-Grow-Longer-Hair-Step- 14.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:345,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:546,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div> “}
Choose a diet that stimulates hair growth. To have the desired hair, you need to nourish your hair properly and drink a lot of water. Choose a protein-first diet with fat-free protein making up 15-25% of your daily calories. [14] X Trusted Source Harvard Medical Schop Go to the source Besides, your hair also benefits from a supplement with iron, omega 3, zinc and bitoin. [15] X Research Source
- Nourish your hair with iron-rich foods like spinach, beans and lean red meat in moderation.
- Whole grains, oysters, peanut butter and seeds are all good sources of healthy zinc.
- Add vegetables and fruits to your diet as they contain vitamins A, C and E that help nourish the scalp and strong hair.
- Eggs, meat, nuts, seeds, salmon, dairy products and avocados all contain biotin, which is good for hair. [16] X Research Source
- Salmon, flaxseeds, chia seeds and cashews are high in omega 3. [17] X Research Source

Stress control . Eating healthy, exercising regularly, and getting enough sleep are key factors in helping you manage stress. High stress can cause many symptoms in the body, including reducing or stopping hair growth. [18] X Research Sources
- Try to be physically active for at least 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week. Moderate activity is when you can still talk, but not much. This not only helps keep the body healthy but also relaxes the mind.
- Try meditation or practice deep breathing to calm your mind when you’re feeling stressed.

Talk to your doctor when you notice hair loss. If you notice slow hair growth or hair loss, you probably have a medical condition. See your doctor to discuss your symptoms and get the necessary tests done. [19] X Research Source
- Genetics or family history can also affect hair strength and growth.
- Women often lose hair when the amount of androgen in the body is high. This often happens to people with polycystic ovary syndrome.
Advice
- The use of conditioner after shampooing will help detangle hair and prevent breakage.
- Use cold water to rinse your hair after washing to close the hair follicles, making the hair strong and shiny.
- Not everyone can own waist length hair. Many people have genetically brittle hair and have difficulty growing long hair. That’s completely natural and doesn’t mean you have any unusual problems.
