One of the most common questions I receive at HairBoutique.com is if I know any DIY home made tips to grow hair faster.  Since the beginning of our website back in the mid-1990s I've been constantly researching the topic.

Not only did I grow my own hair to my thighs with some of the secret DIY home made tips to grow hair faster I found, I've shared these details with many people over the years.

Maximum Monthly Hair Growth Potential For Most People

It's important to remember that the average person has a hair growth cycle of 1/3 to 3/4" a month.  To help hair grow faster or to it's maximum monthly growth potential follow the tips included below.

If you want to grow hair faster than 1/2 to 3/4" a month you may need to investigate other options such as extensions.

Listed below are some DIY home made tips to grow hair faster I have never shared before but I've used on my own thigh length hair.

1.  Get plenty of sleep. 

Yes, this seems obvious, but many people don't realize just how important sleep really is when it comes to growing hair faster and healthier.  I've tracked my own hair growth since 1988. When I'm extremely stressed or not sleeping at least 7 hours a night I notice it immediately in my hair.

Not only will my hair immediately start shedding, it will become dry, crunchy and start to split at the ends.   Everyone knows that split ends can slow down healthy or fast growth.

Everyone has their own personal best sleep schedule.  Mine happens to be 7 hours.  I also sleep best when I go to bed before midnight and have a pitch black room.

Make it a point to figure out your own best sleep schedule and honor it.   Your hair will be healthier and naturally grow faster.

One you have applied the massage oil to your scalp, if you like, you can apply to damaged sections of your hair and/or your ends.

Either wrap hair in a warm towel or a plastic cap.  You may sleep in the oil if you wish or wait for 1 hour and then rinse the mixture out of your hair.

This formula is designed specifically to relax the scalp and provide a restful sleep period.  If you wish you can also pour some of the oil into a warm bath or apply it to your body.

For best results plan to go to bed as soon as possible after using this blend for a hair healthy rest.

#2.  Create balance and harmony in your life.

Hair is a known barometer of the body's health.  If your life is out of balance on any level it will impact your ability to grow healthy and vibrant hair.

When your body is completely out of balance you may find that your normal hair growth cycles are completely blocked.  Achieving balance through proper nutrition, a positive mindset and conscious deep breathing can work wonders to help hair grow to it's optimum monthly length. 

If your life is out of balance stop and figure out why and what you can do to achieve more harmony.

Listed below is a special scalp massage oil you can use to help achieve a more balanced energy flow through your body and to the roots of your hair.  The following recipe can also be used in a bath or as a full body massage oil.

Even though many years ago I worked with an award winning chemist to develop the ideal healthy hair growth formula for my own hair, which became Hairtopia, I still swear by seaweed as my secret grow hair faster formula. 

My own personal success with seaweed and faster growing hair is tied to {{asin=B00016XLN6,text=Nori}} which I eat almost daily.

{{asin=B0012AL434,text=Nori}} can be eaten as a snack or crushed and sprinkled into salads or grains.  It can also be sprinkled into protein shakes or similar drinks.

4.  Hydrate, hydrate & hydrate

I will admit that remembering to drink enough water every day is challenging.  However, when I do get my daily 10-12 cups of water my hair is healthier, fuller and stronger. 

Many people confuse the need to drink water with any type of liquids.  Tea, coffee and similar caffeinated drinks will actually detract from your daily hydration needs.  Caffeine can actually leech essential vitamins and minerals from your body.

Keep a full water nearby and drink from it all day long.  It's just that simple.

Special Note - Hair Loss Issues

Keep in mind that if you are experiencing any type of hair loss the DIY home made tips to grow hair faster may not work for you.  One of the ways people with hair loss are misled is by miracle fast hair growth pills, potions, salves or similar.
