What is the fastest hair can grow every month?

[arylkin]

Mine grows an inch per month in the summer, two to three inches per month in the winter. I don't know why it grows so fast. But it's nice!

Holy crap! Can I be you?

Sure!! but only if I can have your lovely straight and shiny hair.....

1b complains and wants 1a? Where's the justice in this world, where?

I know I got over an inch for a couple months last year around this time. I'm pretty sure I'm getting at least an inch a month right now. I cut my hair in July and it's nearly back where it was.

See the thing is in the last year my hair has gotten quite a bit thicker and curlier and it scares me because I'm not sure what to do with it. I'd like nice straight thin(ner) hair. (It's no longer what my stats say...I need to stop being lazy and get around to updating all that sometime soon)

I think that hair growth rate, texture and terminal length are mostly genetically determined. We need to take good care of our hair, but recognize that much that determines, especially, how fast it grows, is out of our control.

My hair grows extremely fast. For most of my life, my hair has grown in excess of 2 inches per month, every month. This is not due to anything that I do or don't do, nor even to any LHC input (as it was like this many, many years before I came online.) It is just the kind of hair that I have.

Is my hair perfect? Nope. I'd probably like it to be different in some ways, but this is the hair God gave me.

So, it seems that most people's hair grows however fast it is programmed to grow, and not a minute faster. Some seem to be able to speed it up in various mechanical and chemical ways. (Even I was intrigued enough to use Monistat on my scalp a few times. What was I thinking? )

(By the way, that 'world record' is obviously wrong. I always wonder where they come up with figures like that. )

I get about an inch per month, sometimes more and sometimes less.

Deborah: I'm wondering why you think the world record is wrong. Is it the amount stated? Do you know of another record that disputes it? It doesn't seem like that much to me because people here (including myself) grow about an inch a month, which is twelve inches per year, which means that you'd only need about 1 and 1/2 inches per month to get 17 inches per year.

It is too small a number. Some people grow faster than that.

Yeah I thought so too. A quick math calculation shows that Deborah beats the world record easily, since 2 inches times 12 months equals 24 inches growth in a year.
Even if we assume that Deborah is little wrong about her growth rate, and some months she growths only 1 inch instead of 2, she would have 7 months of 1 inch growth and only 5 months of 2 inch growth to equalize with the world record!
IMO, the world record is rather the world documented record for hair growth, which makes perfect sense, to me at least.
