Not sure if both are a factor, but measured my hair yesterday. Finally 26. Closer to what my length used to be. Anyway, I usually notice hair growth at the end of the month rather then the middle of the month. So I didn't know if both the warmer weather and coconut oil, which I started using weekly, is the cause of the growth... I'm new to the whole coconut oil thing. It's definitely been helping, whatever it may be. No complaints here. :)

Many people report faster growth during summer (or just warmer) months. If you massage coconut oil into your scalp, it could speed up growth a bit, as massage increases blood circulation to scalp. And if you apply coconut oil just to length, then it could be helping with length retention and split ends prevention.

I live in hot, humid, Florida. I therefore try to capitalize on that during the summer and use the heat to help oil penetration. I just oil it, put it in a bun, and go do my errands. I definitely notice a (good) difference in breakage when I try this. Maybe, now that you're oiling more, that's what's happening? Less breakage could = "more" growth.

I think the warm weather and coconut oil on my scalp and length have helped mine so far. I do live in a hot humid climate and my hair seems to have grown a lot. I noticed this effect when I first joined here. I went back to my basics my coconut oil and my basic routine.

I'm a bit jealous... It's so cold (5°C/41°F) here, coconut oil doesn't even seem to penetrate.
