You can aid the process by:

Trims every 3 to 4 months

Avoiding blow fryers, straighteners, hot curlers, bleach, curling irons

Using gentle shampoos and conditioners will aid you in your quest.

HOW you use your wide tooth comb and boar bristle brush will make all the difference in your hair health.

Shampooing, conditioning and rinsing properly are important.

Many of the ladies here have achieved their beautiful locks by various methods...but the one thing they all share is being patient during the growing process. You need a boatload of patience and tlc to grow really long hair.

I agree. A lot of patience indeed. I will go months without trimming because if I take an inch off....,it's a setback in the growing process. At 45 inches now....,I have put away my trimming scissors.
