Lots of patience and few trims per year will get you there.

There are some of us here who are doing the "inversion method", but whether or not that is successful or not sort of depends on the person.

In any case, there are no quick fixes, hair growing needs time and there are no miracles; those that try to "sell" you miracles, don't trust them.

Patience.
A balanced diet (this goes for general health) for a healthy body.
Length retention, if your hair is breaking as fast as it grows you'll never see growth.

It won't be fast, some people grow 9 inches a year, but that won't be down to any special tablets or magic tea, it'll be purely genetic. Just enjoy the ride!

This...

The only remedy is time and care.

I will add that you should also take care of your body overall (eat healthy, make sure you give your body all the substances it needs, and excercise), and use protective styles. Sometimes it can seem your hair isn't growing, but in reality, all the growth actually just breaks off...

Some supplements (Biotin, Zinc etc) tend to help some people, but in general, if you eat a healthy diet, you shouldn't be lacking in those...

Patience, a thing that catch me in some things and in some things not. *sighs* i really wish for my hair to grow, i consider hair(for me) the first and special accessory that make me feel beautiful and confident. Ofcourse i exercise since im a gymnastics athlete ^_^

Stray_mind is right, lots of good care as well (both inside & out).

Meanwhile you can try finding a routine & hair care regimen that works for you (which sometimes can take its time too). And there's plenty to read on the forum, so that can keep you occupied as well.

You'll find lots and lots of valuable bits of information just scouring through the forum. I'd add to the list by suggesting that you make sure to drink plenty of water! Hydration is super important as well. Protective hairstyles, as someone else stated, is soooo important!

I have honestly never met anyone whose hair grows faster than mine, and I don’t eat or do anything special for hair growth. I eat a balanced diet, I don’t restrict or avoid any food group, I exercise, and I avoid alcohol. Keep healthy, and your hair will grow.

Patience, time, keeping yourself healthy, eating nutritious food, and a little exercise most days should do it, combined with protective styling and benign neglect. When it comes to hair growth, there are no "quick fixes", I'm afraid.

For me it was hormones. Once I started getting to perimenopause and didn’t know it btw, my hair growth stopped. So I got my hormones straight and it’s now at the top of my butt. That’s the big thing and Patience and following advise on here.
