How to grow hair after a short haircut

Actions for accelerated hair growth

To quickly grow strands after a short haircut, girl you need quite a bit:

1. stock up on patience;
2. achieve the set goal;
3. know how to grow hair properly.

It is not enough just to want, you need to actively help the growing curls after a short haircut.

Only a complex effect on the hair structure, the scalp will provide accelerated growth.

Regular trimming of the ends

For any length, cut at least 4 times a year to maintain healthy hair. This can be explained simply - a well-groomed appearance + a beautiful neat shape are provided if you constantly correct them.

The ends of the hair are the most vulnerable place, they take the first blow of negative influence from the outside. If the ends are weak, thinned or split, then growth can be delayed for a long time.

On average, hair grows back about 1.5 cm per month. Therefore, trimming does not affect the bulk, volume or length of the curls.

To improve and accelerate hair growth after a short haircut, stylists recommend systematizing visits to the hairdresser. Regular trimming of the ends once a month has a good effect on growth.

Hair nourishment and hydration

The structure of the shaft and cuticle of the curl is based on protein (or keratin), which consists of amino acids. Lipids, melanin (pigment), 10-15% water + other substances are present.

If the outer layer (cuticle) of the hair is damaged, its protective functions are impaired. Porous, weakened or chemically damaged strands lose moisture catastrophically.

Such curls break, get confused, torn, outwardly look like dull straw. Even if the hair is more or less normal, it will be difficult to grow it back. Therefore, when growing after a short haircut, maximum attention should be paid to nutrition, hydration and restoration of the structure.

To make your hair grow "by leaps and bounds", use shampoos, conditioners, masks with the following components:

• for food - allantoin, squalane, ceramides, lecithin;
• to moisturize hair - hyaluronic acid, chitosan, aloe, panthenol;
• recovery - hydrolyzed proteins (wheat proteins, soybeans, keratin).

An integrated approach, that is, a combination of ready-made preparations with homemade folk recipes, gives a positive effect of accelerated hair growth.

Maintaining vitamin and mineral balance

Proper nutrition, vegetables, fruits, fish, meat saturate the body with the necessary substances and microelements. Typically, for hair growth, it is recommended:

• beta carotene;
• omega-3;
• fish fat;
• vitamins - A, D, K, E, C, group B;
• minerals - iron, zinc, copper, sulfur, selenium, iodine.

All of these substances are found in foods. The foundation of the hair is keratin and water. A daily intake of at least 1.5-2 liters of liquid will eliminate the problem of dehydration, and hence the destruction of the structure.

A balanced diet is the key to lush growth and luxurious hair. Talk to your doctor about which vitamin complex is right for you.

Hair brushing rules

We are used to combing our hair mechanically, without thinking how many times a day and how a woman does it. When regrowing hair after cutting, this simple procedure is important.

First Care Rules:

• Use combs made from natural materials (bristles or wood).
• Squeeze wet curls after shampooing with a towel, let dry naturally.
• Slightly damp (or dry) hair should be smoothed out with your fingers or combed with a wide-toothed comb.
• If the strands are tangled, do not tear them, carefully disassemble the knots with your hands.

Neck and head massage

This is an effective treatment that increases blood circulation, stimulates hair follicles, preventing hair loss.

The circulation of blood ensures saturation of every point of the body. We spend most of our time upright. The flow of blood to the scalp is difficult, which affects the growth and health of the curls.

Self-massage can be done independently, everyone can master light circular movements, pinching, rubbing or point techniques. Doctors recommend 2 - 3 times a week just before shampooing, about 1 - 2 hours.

What are the benefits of the procedure:

• pores open - medicinal and nutrients are better absorbed and easier to penetrate into the bulbs;
• the production of sebaceous glands is activated - excess fat is removed when washing;
• improves skin tone;
• prevents dandruff (seborrhea);
• has a positive effect on the condition of the hair.

Don't get stuck in your mind

Growing hair after a haircut requires not only physical diligence, but also psychological work on oneself. You can repeat "I want" a million times, but the curls will not become longer because of this.

Obsession with the problem leads to its amplification.

That is, any phrase from the side like “you have a shapeless hat on your head” can have the effect of an exploding bomb. You will simply get a short haircut without reaching your goal.

Visualization helps a lot. Imagine that you already have long curls. Stimulates mental attitudes. Tell yourself that once your hair grows back, things will change dramatically in your life. After all, this is actually the case.

About hair dryers, hairpins and elastic bands

There is a lot you need to know in order for your hair to grow back. First you need to be patient. Not everything is growing as fast as we would like. It will take a lot of time and effort to see the final result. He also needs to be clearly represented.

In another way, to say - to draw an image: how long the hair will be, what hairstyles can be done, how beautiful, elegant it will look. This should give rise to inspiration.

If your imagination is bad, there is another way - to hang a photo of a beautiful woman with the length of hair that you dream of. In moments of doubt, it will help you overcome difficulties and the temptation to return to a short haircut.

These were all psychological moments. However, external negative factors can often interfere in this matter.

• Electrical appliances (hair dryers, irons, curling irons) dry hair. It is better to abandon them or use them only in cases of extreme need, for example, for a party at which you want to look gorgeous, irresistible.

• Elastic bands, hairpins. For lovers of making a ponytail, collecting curls with an elastic band or a hair clip, we recommend that you abandon them. They have a bad effect on the hair shaft, tear, damage it.

In addition to everyday negative reasons, there are several more. To fully arm yourself with useful knowledge, let's get to know them:

• Sun rays bad for the condition of the hair. Hats will save you. Fall in love with hats, caps, scarves. It's so beautiful, cute, feminine.
• Baths and saunas with dry air. Overdrying your hair is harmful. On the contrary, they need to be constantly moisturized and nourished.
• Curling, dyeing, straightening. The use of chemicals is bad for the condition of the hair - try to avoid anything harmful. Do curls with curlers, but without Velcro. Do not twist the strands too much, do not make strong creases. Use hair dyes based on natural ingredients: henna, basma, oak bark.
• Shampoos with sulfates and silicone. Such products wash well, the hairstyle after them is shiny, but the hair does not breathe at all, they dry out. Choose care products based on natural ingredients. They have a beneficial effect.
• Poor nutrition, weakened immunity, lack of vitamins, trace elements, bad habits - all this makes it difficult to grow long curls.
