My Hair Growth Journey: Update2!

Finally! Here's an update on my hair growth journey.
If you didn't already know, I'm trying to grow my hair out because I miss having long hair.
The last time I updated was last year (2013) in March. Which means it's going to be almost a year since I last updated.

If you want to read my previous update you can read it here:

I'm pretty much using the same products for my hair:

• Nature Bounty "Hair, Skin, & Nails" Biotin supplements
• Aussie 3 minute miracle deeeeep conditioner
• Mane and Tail Shampoo and Conditioner
• Garnier Fructis Color Treated Hair Shampoo and Conditioner
• Herbal Essence Drama Clean Shampoo

I'm also taking daily vitamins and using the Organix 3 minute Keratin mask for breakage instead of the Aussie 3 minute miracle. As for when I dry my hair; I use Organix Brazilian Keratin Therapy spray, Tresemme Platinum strength heat spray, and Silk therapy Biosilk. I use those products to protect my hair from heat and to make it soft so that it doesn't feel so dead from dying it so much.

I'm only going to grow it out so that it reaches the bottom of my ribs. I'm planning to redye my hair back to just one color so that my ends don't look too dead. Of course since there isn't anything I can really do to fix my split ends, I am going to try to trim my hair once every month. Hopefully I'll put up another update some time in the summer or fall.

Hope this was helpful or something! :D

My Hair Growth Journey: Update

So its been about 5 months or so since I started my hair growth journey.
Basically all the products I use are the same as in my first hair growth post.
Except for the fact that I do not use Pantene ProV Restore Beautiful Lengths any more.

Why? Because I really did not like the way my hair felt after shampooing. It basically felt very unmovable until I applied my conditioner.

I also finished my Biotin supplement and replaced it with Nature Bounty Hair, Skin, Nails.
I am forgetful so I forget to take at least one a day....yeah...

Tastes really gross since there's no coating... :P

Today: March 2013

Keep in mind that my hair is not straightened or anything in the last picture.

I think the supplements are working. ;)

Soon I'm thinking of trying the shampoo that Shante Mac aka "luvableviet" on youtube uses.

Hopefully that shampoo also helps.

Hope this helped or something! :D

My Hair Growth Journey :)

So for awhile now, I've wanted to grow out my hair. Before, my hair used to grow super fast when I was in middle school. My hair used to be at the end of my back. But now it's only shoulder length.
Two major reasons why were:
-I miss my long hair! Dx
-I want that hairstyle but I can't since my hair is too short.... :(

The hairstyles that I'm trying to grow my hair out for are:

Nicole from KARA

Asian Mullet

I also wanted to dye my hair to look like this:

Front

Back

My Hair usually grows out and stops at this length:

So, to achieve my desired hair length, I've searched and searched for tips to grow out hair.

Most people have tried F.A.S.T shampoo and conditioner but I don't have the funds to invest on shampoo that I have to order off the internet. There were a bunch of tips. I compiled all the tips and took out the ones I was already doing for my hair (ex. not brushing when wet, not tying hair, use less styling tools) and made my own hair growth regimen.

First, as of yesterday, I'm taking Biotin which is a vitamin that supports healthy hair, skin and nails. ;)

Next, I use a hair mask by Neutrogena which is a triple moisture mask (that I especially need since I dyed my hair three times in one week.

*I did get a hair cut after dying my hair three times.

Third, I bought Pantene Pro V Restore Beautiful Lengths. I've been wanting to give this a try.

I do want to try the other products from the same line as well.

I have also changed other things I take into my body.

I drink more water now, massage my scalp, eat fruits such as; apples, blueberries, and bananas.

I've also started to drink more soy milk and eat more healthy protein. I think that's it so far. I will check back with another hair growth journey post and show you guys my progress.

Comment below and tell me what you do to grow out your hair and the results. :)

Tell me anything I can improve on my blog.

Suggest any video ideas I can use for my YouTube channel.

Share my blog with anyone who is also trying to grow out their hair.

I wish you all luck on your hair growth!
